I'll get booed for this but I hate both. I can recognize the quality in their music but it has long-since been ruined by repetition and sappy sentimentality of the fans. I can't listen to CCR without getting the mental image of bland, basic people thinking they're being rebels by "rocking out" to Proud Mary. And Lynyrd gives me white trash douche chills all the way to the bone.

Sometimes a car with high mileage is a classic. And sometimes that car just needs to be dropped off at the fricking junkyard already.

I feel CCR has aged remarkably well. Hell, I'm hearing new songs from them via the internet and movies that I never heard much of on classic rock radio. Maybe it's my affinity for JF's voice but I personally never have to force myself to sit through a CCR classic. For Skynyrd, it's the opposite with the exception of "Tuesday's Gone," which has become my favorite of theirs.
