WASHINGTON -- The head of college football's Bowl Championship Series says Congress ``has more important things to do'' than look into his group's revenue distribution.

That said, BCS executive director Bill Hancock will respond to a question-filled letter sent to him by two U.S. Senators.

Hancock says in a telephone interview Wednesday that ``the BCS is fair'' and ``we welcome the opportunity to tell our story.''

Senators Orrin Hatch of Utah and Max Baucus of Montana sent Hancock a letter this week, asking for details about how the BCS calculates which conferences get automatic bowl bids, how money will be divvied up under a new TV deal and what sort of legal status the organization has.
