What do you think is the ugliest rivalry in sports?

Some that come to mind for me are Blackhawks-Redwings, Yankees-Red Sox, Bruins-Canadiens, Bears-Packers, Giants-Patriots, and Penguins-Flyers.

Celtics-Rangers in Glasgow. There's just nothing in North America to rival the insane sectarian violence that backends that feud.

@monte3 They're Slavs like I am. They speak basically the same language and they also hate Bosnia. How could I not love Croatia 😂

My daughters bf is from Greece and says Bulgarians are the worst people in the world. Any opinions on them?@BlueMetalChick
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@monte3 Well...I'm none too fond of the Bulgarian government considering how terribly they treat Roma like me. But that isn't the fault off the citizens I suppose.

Some of those European soccer hooligans go to war on each other. Major violence.

@BlueMetalChick fucking hell that's insane. People are crazy

@SW-User yeah it's weird seeing how violent fans get about a sport that is so soft. People get killed over it in some places

@BlueMetalChick you probably only worked there because you know how to fight too😂
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@somedude15 Oh I absolutely do 😂😂 I'm a good pianist too though, and my boss paid me good.

Bears Packers hasn't been that ugly in recent decades... tough hard fought games? Absolutely!

But Ndamukong Suh and the Lions Center (I don't know his name) have had more cheap shots than the Packers/Bears rivalry.

And so often, the Packers and Bears aren't good the same decade (though back in the 80s and before there were cheap shots even when both teams weren't good).

@BlueMetalChick I do drink and love wine, I just don’t drink like that or with those people.
Viper · M
@BlueMetalChick so you were in Green Bay? Isn't it so much better ;)

Yes, the time someone was at a Bears and COWBOYS game and they said someone good about the Packers and some guys started trying to stab people!

But that was NOT at a Packers game, just a Bears fans said the Packers offense was awesome...
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Viper Not really, no. It was far too small for me, also too many fat people eating cheese curds. I did like being able to see a lot of stars though.

Dodgers giants?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Stressedout Good one, they get pretty brutal.
eli1601 · 70-79, M
@Stressedout Maybe the greatest rivalry ever was Brooklyn Dodgers-NY Giants in the 40's and 50's
Stressedout · 31-35, F
@BlueMetalChick was surprised no one said it
Viper · M
Bengals and Steelers had a ton of cheap shots plays against each other, 5 to 15 years ago... lots of dirty in those games.

Steelers and Ravens too, but that was more good hard physical play from both sides.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Viper Good point on the Baltimore and Pittsburgh one. That rivalry manifested mostly on the field.
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
I lived in Tennessee for a while and the college football fans are so obnoxious there. I have to nominate Alabama and Tennessee for the most annoying rivalry, at least.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SwampFlower I'll admit my knowledge of college sports is pretty light, so I'll take your word for it.
HannahSky · F

@MrBlueGuy aWe had a rivalry with you for like one week lol
@BlueMetalChick When was that when there were only 6 teams?? Pickens were slim xD
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@MrBlueGuy 2019 when Kane and Matthews taunted each other during one game and there was a period of like one month where we thought we might become rivals. It never happened though, obviously.

Cubs v. White Sox

Cubs v. Cardinals

Lakers v. Celtics

Jordan's Bulls v. Hard Nosed Detroit

Tiger Woods v. the Field
Tiger Woods v. the media
LeBron v. the media

Serena Williams v. whatever she's mad at.

Trump v. 2020 Election Results

Alabama/Clemson v. everyone who's tired of them being in the college playoffs.

If you just want pure hate, it's got to be Alabama vs Auburn fans, at least as far as I know. I don't know hockey, or all sports, but from American football it's Alabama vs Auburn.

The cheating Astros vs rest of baseball.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Viper I hate the Cubs and Sox rivalry.

The Sox have a pretty bad one with the Cardinals too.

And the Cubs and Brewers is a big one.
Viper · M
If we counting off the field fan stuff, then California teams that has too near each other's...

Like San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders played each others...


Also, I believe there was California one with basketball teams fans really getting into it, but I don't remember details. I mainly just know NFL.


Oh college teams... Auburn and Alabama fans HATE each other! Some dude even poisoned the other schools famous tree!


Duke vs NC vs NC State, not fans, but mostly clean fighting.
Cowboys and Redskins aka Washington football team or whatever the hell they gonna call them
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@ExperienceDLT Yep that's a pretty intense one.
DragonFruit · 61-69, M
Yankees amd Red Sox is a lomg time rivalru...it ’s pretty ihly.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@DragonFruit So I've heard. I've never been up that way during baseball season but everyone has told me.
SinlessOnslaught · 26-30, M
@Viper Mmmm not intentional but good observation.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SinlessOnslaught Thank goodness. I was worried you were having another drunken episode lol
SinlessOnslaught · 26-30, M
@BlueMetalChick People constantly worry about that with me 😆 It's kinda annoying but kinda sweet.

Ever been in a hockey fight ?
OfflineFriend · 22-25
@BlueMetalChick what’s the difference ?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@OfflineFriend A knockout is when you knock someone unconscious. A knockdown is when you hit them hard enough that they fall over, but they're still conscious.
OfflineFriend · 22-25
@BlueMetalChick well you do would get a ko with me if kissed me 😏
monte3 · 70-79, M
All,these,rivalries show the strength of tribalism even today. Well tribalism and alcohol.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@monte3 Ugh, drinkers...how tiresome.
QPR - West Ham, literal killings in that rivalry. Bohemians - Shamrock Rovers another rough one.
somedude15 · 22-25, M
El Clasico... Or Roma v Lazio... But you probably don't watch soccer
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@somedude15 Nah, I'm a Serb but I hate soccer.
eli1601 · 70-79, M
Islanders-Rangers, Celtics-Lakers, Raiders-Chiefs
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@eli1601 Oi, Islanders and Rangers is a big one. Devil's and Rangers too.

Those European soccer teams... I have seen videos of them starting a riot off of some dumb game
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@empanadas Ugh, even as a Euro myself, fuck soccer and fuck soccer fans. They're whiny little pussies. A REAL European rivalry is KHL hockey fans. They know how to duke it out.
