Re: The Rivalry
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Wait, are we actually debating what the best rivalry in sports is, or are we debating the Mich vs OSU game? Cause if we're debating the best rivalry is, Carolina vs Duke is most definetely up there. [/ QUOTE ] Sorry, not professional sports teams. DQ'd. [/ QUOTE ] Ok forget I ever said the professional thing. Today and yesterday have no been my best posting days. I'm in a slump. I need a slump-buster, where's that Halloween fattie thread from BBV at?!? UNC-Duke vs. UM-OSU would be a very good debate. [/ QUOTE ] It would in theory but since the criteria are so vague it's pretty hard. If you care about how fans interact then M-OSU goes down a bit since there isn't nearly so much interaction on a regular basis as with instate rivalries. Someone (Mandel?) wrote an article comparing rivalries and decided that because M and OSU weren't in the same state they couldn't be under consideration. I guess that's a fair point if you use that as your criteria, but it seems like it should be one point among many, not wholly dispositive. [/ QUOTE ] In my opinion, the "separate" us vs. them mentality makes it great. I can see the other side too, but I don't agree with it.
