I’ve been a Giants fan all my life, but I wrote for a Dodgers’ site for a while, and I have tremendous respect for the organization.
It sounds strange for a passionate Giants supporter to say anything positive about the Dodgers, but for either side to discount the other is simply delusional and narrow minded.
A fantastic rivalry like that doesn’t reach the level it has if the two franchises aren’t terrific organizations.
One-sided rivalries simply don’t work. It takes a back-and-forth struggle between two formidable teams who can rise to the occasion and cement themselves as the team of the moment.
