| ...so rivera blew a save...so what? He's been falling off for the past few years. It's, what, the 30th game of the season? if that? Seriously, fuck both of them. If ESPN cared any moar about the damn east coast, they'd be covering softball games in Jersey. Seriously, nobody but Yankees & Red Sox fans give a shit about this nonsense. There are a million other rivalries that are just as or nearly as deep-seeded, or which, at the very least, have the same level of interest (see: Packers vs. Bears, Giants vs. Dodgers, Cubs vs. White Sox, Chiefs vs. Raiders, etc.) that don't get anywhere NEAR the amount of coverage that these pointless affairs get. I hope they both lose 100 games and all the fans on both sides take Peter Gammons & Tim Kurkjian with them to some place that will prevent everyone else from ever having to hear from any of them ever again. |

i was in a restaraunt last night around 10, little after, and I saw Arod line out to 2B... and all the MEATHEAD sox fans in the bar were going crazy... and the girl I was with was like..."was he with us..."
and I said, "no the greatest player of ALL-TIME just got out, and the sox fans think thats just the greatest thing since sliced bread, seeing that they got him to LINE-OUT, not even a STRIKE-OUT, but a LINE-OUT, yeah I'd CHEER like an idiot too... NOT..."
the FUNNY thing is... all my friends now are beginning to hate RED SOX NATION like I do... the NEW Evil Empire(RED SOX NATION) is quickly crumbling... people are finally seeing what I see... A BUNCH of bandwagon fans, who like to wear red sox hats...
and there is a difference between Red Sox Fans and Red Sox Nation....
Red Sox fans are like me, watched them their whole lives, don't get overly excited unless its game 4 of the World Series and you're up six runs, and you know FLUKES are out the window, then you can feel a little good about winning...
Red Sox Nation are the meatheadz who come out of the woodworks, the chicks with PINK red sox attire, the jerks who think Kevin Pukilis is a good player, the tards who buy ridiculous priced seats at WAY PARK.... they're basically braindead morons!
anyway, i'm done ranting, lets go DICE-K!!! lol.... |

Dodgers v. Giants is indeed a better rivalry than Yankees v. Red Sox simply because it stood the test of time.
1. It's evenly match. They take turns knocking each other out of the playoff hunt.
2. The Red Sox v. Yanks rivalry aside from 1949, 1978, 1986, 1999, 2003-present, has been dormant. Dodgers v. Giants has been constant from the days they were in NY through moving over to California.
Honestly, the media has hyped up this rivalry for more than its really worth. Nonetheless it's the hottest rivalry right now. |

I don't blame the fans as much as I do the media, because everyone thinks that the rivalries involving their own favorite teams are the best, but the Sawx & Yankees ilk seem to take it to another level by refusing to even acknowledge any other ones. |

um no. move to new england and you'll see what it's really about. after a red sox win, you DON'T wear a yankee hat down the street. the media isn't "hyping it up"...it's the same reason that during a red sox game @ fenway (when they're not playing the yankees) there's still always a 'yankees suck' chant going. i love it :) |

so there are moar neanderthals in new england. That doesn't mean it's a rivalry that eclipses all others in sports. |

I'm refering of the actual history of the rivalry, not the emotions of red sox nation when it comes toward the yankees.
as an addendum....at yankee stadium the stands are crazier when the Subway Series is going on (Yanks v. Mets) than a Yanks-Red Sox game |
