Punch Power: 96 | | Re: Biggest Sports Rivalry +883 There is a couple that instantly pop into my mind beside those that Drago did state:
- Montreal Canadians/Toronto Maple Leafs (hockey): Hockey is a tradition and a vitality in Canada, these two teams have many things in common: Both from Canada, both from the original first 6 teams of the league, one is hailed as the second most decorated franchise in the whole history of sport (montreal Canadians), one is from the english part, the other one the french part... as language is a big factor in Canada, no need for more to spark fires when these 2 meet.
- West Ham/Millwall FC (English Football): Well, hooligans from both side and their rivalry is well documented, I've learnt recently by a few nice guys here that one was from irish and the other from scottish origins, a damn firce rivalry with roots deep into the celtic lands.
- Boston Red Sox/Yankees (Baseball): The Curse of the Bambino, the Legend of Fenway Park vs the core of New-York, it is all here, pure hate breathing for the Steinbrenner family on one side vs accusation of jealousy on the other.
- Auburn Tiger/ Alabama Crimson Tide (American University Football) voted second biggest sport rivalry by the sports illustrated, these two can't stand each others, it's all about how far from which stadium you're born and in Alabama, peoples sleep, breathe and die by the sword of their respective team, which side are you on, boy?
- Boston Celtics/ L.A Lakers (Basketball) It's all about the East vs the West, The constant and relentless impact of Lary Bird vs the eternal wizardry of "Magic Johnson.
