When you see it on tv or in the papers inside the city, know that it is also going to the millions in South Jersey, the Lehigh Valley, etc. who don't stay in the city any longer than it takes to attend a Phillies game or shitty concert.

I'm all for shots in the arm/ego boosts and knowing how we're presenting ourselves to the world, but on that front how much should we be going beyond the "With Love" banners on Broad Street?Anyone else sense this? Anyone else care to factually rebut?
