There was no intent to offend.

My post was simply an (obviously weak) attempt at humor in pointing out that people are sometimes territorial in our perception of what is "good" and what is "bad". My small town is that way, and I guess I see it more because I have only lived here a couple of years. Folks here see "our" High School (and all of it's activities") as "good", while the next little town is, if not downright bad, then just simply "not as good". The same goes for OUR police department, OUR City Council... heck, even OUR Town Square (yes, we still have one) is prettier than "theirs". LOL

I get a kick out of it because as a military retiree (Army), I have lived all over the world and seen this same attitude everywhere. My post was just me pointing it out.

Sorry to have offended. Have a great week.

My bad. I completely misinterpreted the tone. Sigh.

Apologies. Have a great week, too!
