Rivalries

Rivalries define sports. Rivalry does not equal jealousy.

Rivalry does mean or better yet causes the following to occur:

• Passion
• Allegiance
• Bond

Rivalries can divide families and are something you become a part of and you don't change your stance for nothin'. If you are a New York Yankees Fan you can not in any way be a Boston Red Sox Fan. My Chicago friends say if you are a Cubs fan you can not be a White Sox fan. This is serious stuff.

Every game in sports matters but rivalry games are of utmost importance. As a Yankees fan you can set the longest winning streak record in baseball history but if you can't beat the Red Sox it doesn't matter.

So Ladies what you need to know is your man may act in a way you have never seen if this type of match-up doesn't go well. The best thing to do is make not on your calendar when these match-ups are on and know there is no way you can make plans if there is any way to view the game live.

As ESPN as listed here (and I don't necessarily agree on the order) here is a list of some of the most classic rivalries in sports. If you man's favorite team or player is listed.....read the information :)
