If you want to compare B/CS to Oxford or Starkville, well you're comparing two different areas. B/CS is a little over 200K, Starkville/Oxford is what... 50K combined between the two? There's plenty more to do, see, eat in B/CS in 2011 than there is either of the MS college towns.
Despite the pop. size and you take all the chain stores away, there isn't a difference.

Ole Miss can’t lay much claim to in-state athletic dominance, but in terms of appealing college towns, there’s sim-ply no argument now, nor will there ever: Oxford is the all-time, undisputed Bear Bryant Rose Bowl Heisman Four Horseman Omnipotent Champion … of the Universe.
I love it when rednecks church things up.

Exactly. Everyone who uses the word "butthurt" about this article obviously didnt read it. It has very little to do with sports. If it mentions anything regarding the egg bowl or the rivalry between the two schools, sports wise, it also mentions how OM sucks too. There is nothing butthurt about stating facts. No one argues Oxford is a better town than Starkville. No one can argue State is obsessed with OM in regards to the whole "this is our state" campaign.

This.
I've never understood why people automatically equate large population with "good." I know plenty of large cities where the people are dull and there isn't shite to do.
A bunch of cookie-cutter houses, condos, office parks and strip malls taking up several exits worth of interstate doesn't an interesting or cool city make. Case in point, everything in Texas outside of Austin and San Antonio, most of Florida, Virginia Beach, most of the Midwest, Oklahoma City, Phoenix, and so forth.

I don't use the word butthurt and I read the entire article and it reeked of butthurt.

And when you had a chance to choose between blue jean shorts and fashion you chose blue jean shorts. Obviously, I see a pattern.

So does everyone else on this site, including his fellow rebel posters.
Yes, because outside of you State fans and Bobby Moore I hear that all the time. Oh wait.

You threw Johnny Cash in jail. You think “The Client” is a suitable rebuttal to our celebration of “The Sound and the Fury.” Your culinary mystique is a tangled web of Applebee’s peppered with so many Sonics that I have to assume there’s a city-wide mandate on Cherry Limeade accessibility, lest the native palate go unsatisfied. Your Balkan-esque landscape is so devoid of charm that it even depresses the frayed ball-cap, F-150 lift kit crowd from other crappy ag schools visiting for football games. Compared to you, Clemson is a clear spring morning in Barcelona.
frickin boom

Yeah marketing to the main source that feeds your university is dumb. Not a good business move.

Would you like me to write an entire article devoted to ripping Ole Miss for having a bunch of pussies who couldn't get into their state school so they come to Ole Miss and then act like it is Harvard. All while spending all of Daddy's money while doing lots of coke and shitty in school
First off, State is second in the SEC in out of staters. Secondly, no one who didnt get into their school of choice calls OM "Harvard of the South". Steven's article is in response to your school calling Starkville "MS' College Town". He responds with either facts or opinions that are upheld by everyone. He's not making shite up.

Steven Godfrey, isn't this the same douche that covers wrestling?

Starkville is a shithole and Oxford is a true NICE college town.
Outside of the Oxford square/UM campus and the Cotton District/MSU campus, Oxford and Starkville are exactly the same.
Aside from visiting a dead author's house, there's not one damn thing that you can do in Oxford that you can't do in Starkville. Not one damn thing.

I never said it wasnt business savvy. The fact that it is a good business move is my point. If marketing obsession of another school is a "smart business move" then your fans are obsessed people.

Can we re-name this thread, "Hey look at us, Ole Miss is still here"
My favorite part of that effort at relevancy...
I have seen some in Key West too. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with them being homosexuals.

That part was obviously sarcastic. Don't get your panties in a wad.
