In my opinion, in the grand scheme of Rivalries, the Giants - Redskins is more historic and, in my mind, a bigger rivalry (maybe also cause my brother is a skins fan) Not that Giants - Cowboys ain't a great rivalry, but i do not think it is one of the elite rivalries of sports. Thats why this post is here, to debate and get other peoples opinions

I gotta say the best rivalry in all of sports history is Yankees/Red Sox. In no other rivalry is there as much deep rooted hatred or as much history.

The reason for the Yanks & The Red Sox is becase of the Curse of the Bambino. What else can still keep 2 teams rivalry going so long. Do you know how the others started?

Well, other then the Yanks-Sox, and the inevitable regional rivalries, I don't have a clue about any other ones. Of course, thats probably cause I don't follow any other sports nearly as closely as baseball.

My personal favorite is still the Sox-Yankess. I have been watching that since I was a kid and in the last few years with both of them having good teams it seems to have become more intense.

Patriots - Jets

Notre Dame -Miami was huge when I was a kid.

Slackjaw,

The Iron Bowl ranks at the top no doubt. Where else in America does commerce come to a complete hault on this late Nov. /early December day ? I have roots in Talledega, and I've seen individuals turn down a pair of super-bowl tickets for one IronBowl ticket...

Historically the greatest rivalries as I see :

Yanks-Sawx
Dodgers-Giants
Bama-Auburn
For a certain amount of years , Bama-Penn State
Kentucky-Louisville
Indiana-Michigan
Notre Dame-USC
Raiders-Chiefs

Of course cycles also produce interesting/intense rivalries as evidenced by Mets-Braves, Knicks-Bulls, Yanks-Mariners, et.al ....

Francine, I think the best in hockey is between to orig 6: Mont-Tor, Det-Chi, Mont-Bos. It's just terrible that half of the teams suck. Only New Yorkers care about NYI/NYR.

From the other side of the state:
Bills & Dolphins
Sabres & Toronto (history)
Sabres & Montreal (familiarity)

Baseball is definitely Yanks/Soahxs
but Basketball used to be Lakers/Celtics......

Yanks / Bosox of course

But what about Yanks / Mets



A man lies in his bed in a room with no door
He waits, hoping for a presence, something, anything to enter
After spending half his life searching
He still felt as blank as the ceiling at which he stared
He is alive, but feels absolutely nothing, so is he?

Who in New York or Los Angeles cares about Detroit-Chicago or Montreal Boston? You can say that about any rivalry that doesnt involve the market you are in.

I was thinking about best overall rivalry..... the fiercests, the meanest. Bo & Yanks is the best baseball rivalry because of the history. Sure someone in Cleveland might change the channel, but it's the best.

As for hockey, the history (Canadiens have the pick of the french Canadian players, etc...), there has got to be some vicious history between a couple of teams. Det-Col is probably the best now, but there are some people in Montreal who just hate the Bruins no matter how good either team is. I'm just saying from a local perspective, the annual Devil thumpings, or the Potvin sucks do not translate as the greatest hockey rivalry because it is too localized.
