Two MSU mentions in this week's Forde Yard Dash...

[Maroon Eagle]

Found here:

B -- Mississippi State's Dan Mullen (33). There was an epidemic of penalties and some other sloppiness against an even sloppier opponent, Jackson State. But the Bulldogs also scored more than 40 points for the first time since Sept. 14, 2002. That alone should have sent fans sprinting naked into the streets in Starkville (assuming they have streets in Starkville).

...

Then there is Player Two. When confronted last week with aggressive behavior, he selflessly accepted the risk of injury or even death to save 22 others. When a girl on his school bus waved a loaded .380 semiautomatic pistol and shouted threats, Player Two approached her, tackled her and took the gun from her. He then ran off the bus and disarmed the weapon. For that, Mississippi State signee Kaleb Eulls (38) of Yazoo County, Miss., is every bit the hero Blount is not.

As if that's not tired and completely overused. I mean, christ, the guy writes out of Louisville. I've never seen more hillbillies and fat-bellied retards in all my life the four months I was up there.

Let it alone.

and inevitably, someone will make a grammar mistake thus making you look more like an idiot.

Or there's the old adage, "Never get into fights with people who buy ink by the barrel." Or these days, buy bandwidth by the whatever...

 

[Bdog9090]

I would rather just ***** about his stale jokes on a message board. Plus, I'm sure that Forde has been writing long enough to know that lame-*** jokes about SEC towns only appeal to fans of the Northern variety.

I believe Forde buys Jeff Foxworthy books by the crate.

forde buys hair club for men by the crate.

in every article about Ole Miss, they make a comment about it's violent racist past and how "so much has been done" to overcome, but "vestiges" still remain. I think we come out ahead.

 

[Fdawg.sixpack]

about what an amazing college town oxford is when they talk about ole miss which just pisses me off

 

[HD6]

when the truth pisses you off. Oxford is a great college town.

 

[Fdawg.sixpack]

ive had plenty of good times in oxford but anytime they do a feature on the town they make it out to be second to none and when you come down to it the best bar is nothing more than a fratty ricks which just doesnt do it for me...

not trying to turn this into a bashing of oxford bc i realize its a great setting for a college town but if youve never been there and saw and heard some of these guys youd think theres nothing better anywhere when in my opinion there are plenty of other college towns just as good or better that you never hear that kind of praise for

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Oxford is an awesome place.

 

[Optimus Prime 4]

very few people would disagree.

 

[Optimus Prime 4]

There are better college towns, IMO, but they all get PLENTY of press for it. Maybe Athens, Chapel Hill, etc. and they all get tons of great press too.

So you stopped by the ATO House? <rim shot>

 

[Fdawg.sixpack]

were making references about the perceptions of starkville/oxford and i was simply saying one of the common statements about oxford is that it such an amazing college town (and im not at all saying its not)...but as someone whos been to a fair share of college towns as well oxford more times than i count i just dont see what makes it head and sholders above everyone else...but as you said it is possible the other cities get the same love but my hatred for ole miss just makes me realize it more when they say it about them</p>

maybe if starkville would get a freaking cicis we would finally start to get some love...</p>
