\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a>You\u2019ve probably seen them hanging from porches on crisp, fall Saturday mornings: flags adorned with the logos of various colleges, hung by proud alumni on college football gameday.\u00a0 This simple gesture of school pride has become the source of serious disagreement in the Beatty household.\u00a0 Husband Bob just wants to hang the flag of his alma mater on Saturday like all the other guys on his block, but his wife will not let him.\u00a0\n\n\u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong; he\u2019s a smart guy, and got a great education, but they don\u2019t even have a football team!\u201d exclaims Shelli, Bob\u2019s wife of five years.\u00a0 Bob earned his degree online, from the University of Phoenix, which may or may not be headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona.\u00a0 Unlike the so-called \u201chouse divided,\u201d where spouses attended rival universities such as Colorado and Nebraska, or Kansas and Missouri, the difference here is that these two attended schools with rival interfaces: one in reality and the other in the virtual world.\u00a0\n\u201cYes, I got my degree online, but the U.P. has over 200 campuses, including four in the Denver region,\u201d Bob explains.\u00a0 Shelli shakes her head dismissively.\u00a0 \u201cThose aren\u2019t \u2018campuses,\u2019 those are crappy office parks in random suburbs!\u201d\nJudging by their tones of voice, this house divided won\u2019t be united anytime soon.\u00a0 Bob sighs reflectively, \u201cShe should have seen this coming.\u00a0 She knew about my Phoenix Eagle pride ever since we were first online dating.\u201d]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
