What is the best rivalry game in Professional sports??
I gotta go with Detroit Red Wings vs Colorado Avalanche in the NHL |
|
When I was a kid and still watching pro sports, the rivalry I remember most was Cowboys vs. Steelers (yeah, I'm an OF).
These days, I wouldn't have any idea –– couldn't have even told you that the ones listed above were rivals. |
|
Quoted:
Pittsburgh Penguins/Philadelphia Flyers Agreed for the time being. 5 years ago, I'd have said Flyers/Devils. |
|
Easy, Rangers and Celtic.
American fans don't take sports seriously. |
|
Best and one of the oldest.......BEARS vs packers.
BEARS lead the series. |
|
How is Chicago Bears vs Greenbay Packers not on this list? Oldest rivalry in NFL...
This thread sucks. Edit: Damn you SPECTRE... Less then a min... |

Wings have more of a rivalry with the Ducks now than the Avs. That may change this season though, both teams are more physical, and the Avs are talented again. Bears/Packers |

Quoted:
Pittsburgh Penguins/Philadelphia Flyers This. ...from an old school Broad Street Bullies fan. |

Best and one of the oldest.......BEARS vs packers. BEARS lead the series. In other news...the Bears still suck. |

Bears/Packers As a Red Wings fan, I hate the Ducks, but I still LOATH the Avs. |

Yankees/Red Sox rivalry goes back a long time, so they get my vote.
The Avalanche/Red Wings rivalry was fun to watch in the late 90's into the 00's. |

I can't STAND the Avs, but it just hasn't been a competitive rivalry for 5 or 6 years. |

I can't believe people actually watch baseball on TV. I love playing baseball, and I even enjoy going to a game now and then. On TV, absolute bore. I'd rather watch golf. Almost.

There were many times when the Yankees/Red Sox game didn't mean anything either but it was still considered a rivalry. |

Eagles vs Cowboys seems like a pretty big one. Especially during the TO in Dallas years.
|
|
Quoted: 3/26/97 Haha. I would post that video on here, but I can't since I lost my membership. Most penalty minutes in a game, ever, right? |
|
Quoted:
Easy, Rangers and Celtic. American fans don't take sports seriously. +1. People have been killed at these games. But from the ones listed, Red Sox/Yankees. |
|
The Sox-Yankees Rivarly is nearly 110 years old. There's more history and mythology there than anywhere else in professional sports.
|
|
browns vs steelers
fuck the steelers ya ya i know the browns suck ass but i always like the underdog |
|
There's only ONE OLDEST RIVALRY IN ALL OF NORTH AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL SPORTS- PACKERS VS. BEARS.
GO PACK GO! |
|
I don't even care about baseball
Still the correct answer to the question is: Red Sox / Yankees Who the hell even cares about hockey?? |
|
Quoted:
Easy, Rangers and Celtic. American fans don't take sports seriously. England vs Germany |
|
Cleveland Browns fans vs. Browns Ownership
Oakland PD vs Raiders fans Green Bay fans vs fetal alcohol syndrome |

|
Yanks and Sox.
What I do not like is when the Boston pitchers try to hit Yankee hitters, that's fucking uncalled for. |
|
I think it changes over time. Right now, Yankees/Red Sox is probably the best because both teams are so good and the rivalry is old and heated. I'd like to have voted for Cowboys/Redskins, but the Redskins have sucked for so long that it's not much of a rivalry right now. IMO, a quality rivalry needs both teams to be competitive.

Cleveland Browns/Oakland Raiders
Its a rivalry to see who is crappier |
|
Random city's collection of overpaid free agents that will play for someone else next year against another random city's collection of free-agents that will play for someone else next year.
That's the best rivalry. |

I got to skate at the Joe a few times during the lockout and made a special point to stand on the spot Darren McCarty beat the snot out of that b*tch Claude Lemieux. |
