On Sunday, the Press Herald pit Westbrook against Cape. And today some Press Herald commenters are measuring the merits of Westbrook against those of Old Orchard (yes, OOB does have a few merits).
It began when either commenter Larry Larrolds or OOBToughguy--both of Old Orchard Beach--talked some smack about the Paper City (both comments have subsequently been deleted by the Press Herald because they violate the website's user guidelines, so I can't be sure which one actually trashed on us).
Then, Les of Boston wrote: "Wow, people from OOB trashing on people from westbrook (sic), that is some good irony right there."
Which inspired this sarcastic response from OOBToughguy: "You are all right. I was wrong. OOB can't compete w/ da brook. Who in Westbrook would go shopping at an upscale store? Build a WalMart, Mardens and Super McDonalds (that accepts food stamps) and they will come in droves. Stay away from any store that sells soap, deodorant or toothpaste." Ouch.
What's next, a battle royale with Buckfield?

(Update: All these heated words have me worried since my condo association's homeowners' insurance doesn't cover damage caused by "war, including undeclared or civil war; warlike action by a military force; or insurrection, rebellion, revolution, usurped power, or action taken by a governmental authority in hindering or defending against any of these.")
