Ohio State

Lakers
Celtics

Liverpool
Manchester United

Army
Navy dad, both grandpas

SF Giants
Dodgers

Federer
Nadal

Mcenroe
Connors

Duke
UNC

Auburn
Alabama

Redskins
Cowboys

Before they won their titles, I pulled hard for the Red Sox against the Yankees. Now I don't care who wins because Sox fans got annoying.

Boston fans are the most loathsome fanbase in sports IMO.

Don't forget Packers-Bears. Even though the bears are shite it is still a historic rivalry.

Everyone except OSU fans root for Michigan in that rivalry.

I have never met a single non-OSU fan who has said they root for OSU in that game.

I feel like if you pull for the Yankees you pull for the Lakers and vice versa.
