	Sports rivalry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The intensity of the rivalry varies from a friendly competition on one end to serious violence on the other that, in one case (the Football War), was suggested to have led to military conflict.
		Social and political tensions can also be played out by proxy in a sports rivalry, such as when Glasgow's sectarian differences are expressed in the Celtic-Rangers derby or when the Spanish-Catalan political conflict spills over to a Real Madrid-FC Barcelona soccer match.
		Rivalries of the friendlier sort are common between college athletic programs in the United States and often involve pranks that rival student bodies play on each other such as by stealing the other school's mascot or painting school colors somewhere on the opposing school's campus.

		When you have sports fans from all across the country who anticipate this game, make wagers, and are glued to their televisions for 3 + hours EVERY SINGLE YEAR during the last week of the Big Ten season, well that speaks for itself.

	Yankees vs. Red Sox: greatest rivalry in sports Baseball Digest - FindArticles (Site not responding. Last check: )
		IF YOU GO BY THE NATURAL assumption that a classic rivalry must have give and take--an exchange of triumphs and failures, a relatively equitable parceling of fulfillment and despair--then the Yankees and Red Sox don't qualify.
		Their rivalry has been compared, from the standpoint of relative success, to that between a hammer and a nail.
		But it doesn't matter, because all the other elements--the unparalleled passion of the two fan bases, the deep resonance of shared history, the eat of vivid characters and catalogue of bizarre and riveting moments--make the best rivalry in baseball, without question, and arguably the best in all of sports.
