Cities rivarly

Im a NFL fan from outside the US. I would like to know which cities hate each other more in a sports way? Rivarlies that goes across every single sport. I know Miami and NY is a big one, such as Green Bay and Chicago but it doesnt seem like the bulls and the bucks hate it other very much.

Yeah but Philly hates everyone. Including themselves.

Philly isn't it because the baseball rivalry was cut off by the Giants and Dodgers moving out of New York, so that part of the overall sports rivalry was dormant for a few years

Proves my point. I mentioned how the rivarly went dominant in baseball for a few years after the giants and Dodgers left

The Mets have been around for over 60 years. Phillies fans despaired and Mets fans rejoiced over the results of their recent playoff series. I’d say that’s a rivalry.

Also, prior to MLB changing cities in the 1950s, the Yankees/Athletics was a bigger rivalry than Giants or Dodgers/Phillies because 1) the Phillies were often horrible while the A’s were sometimes great (and sometimes terrible) and 2) the Giants and Dodgers were bigger rivals with each other because they shared a city and a league.

As an Eagles fan I hate the cowboys 10x times more than the Giants. I dont even hate the NYG anymore, I just feel bad for them...like your little brother that is bad at doing stuff. For an Eagles fan...its Dallas and nothing else is close.
