not really when you have the playoffs in a month




Man i am not sure what to tell you. I am not trying to sound like a smartass, but I feel bad for people that don't have a great rivalry to enjoy. Rivalries are exactly what make sports a great thing. Winning a NC was an amazing experience, but as I know, my team can suck a year or two later and in those duldrums, you have that hated rival coming into town who you can get excited about because you never know what may happen because its a rivalry.


ETA: do you not enjoy the rivalry with the Giants?

New fans usually have a hard time grasping this concept.

sure. Like ive said so many times in this thread. I think rivalris are fun and i dont think they are stupid. But in this context, id rather win the division or the WS than win the season series against them
