Is that why companies leave the USA for Ireland? Or companies leave CT? Or the fact CT is losing residents at a record pace?

What kind of clown can't realize a joke on the internet about the stark contrasts between Alabama and Connecticut. @whaler11 that is who. I will do you one better. It's people that display anger and aggression on the internet that are obviously unhappy people in real life.

I think Benedict will be successful.

God, shut up.

Yeah but he won't have to deal with southerners anymore. Well worth the cost.

Hey, at least they give a sh_t about football.

I need a 'best eggs' food thread and I need it now. @August_West

I created it lAst night, bruh

 

[intlzncster]

Eh, leave the guy alone. Tried a joke on for size...and it bombed. Happens all the time on here.

Never said I was fast on the uptake. Next time wait til I've made my joke first.

It's so boneyardy when a thread that is sort-of kind-uv started to celebrate/discuss the hiring of a new AD gets massively polluted by a newb and gray arguing about whether a joke was a joke.

The money he will save in not having to send his kids to private school is well worth the property taxes.

Auburn public schools are actually really good

Auburn public schools are actually really good

The differences between the best public schools down south and what's available in Connecticut are huge. I have a family member who moved from a nationally-ranked (by Washington Post) school in the Jacksonville area to Staples. Night ad day difference. An A student at this supposed top-ranked school is a C student at Staples. If you look at the Washington Post high school rankings, the Florida school is top 10 in the nation. The Connecticut schools in that index all rank really low.

But the reality is different. You can't quantify it. But it is real nonetheless.

I agree 100%, but it doesn't really apply to Auburn. The education my fiancee got at Auburn high is much much better than the education I got in the Bristol school system, a middle of the pack system in the state of CT. People from all over central AL move to Auburn to get their kids in the schools here.

Upgrade for Benedict: Auburn rank = 102, UConn = 57. ref: US News & World Report Ranking.
