Rivalry Week: Can a Rivalry Ever Be Fun? | On The Forecheck
Kate perfectly sums up what makes a rivalry...well...a rivalry. I think back to whenever I walk into Bridgestone Arena the night of a game. There’s just always a little extra oomph in the building when a team like Chicago, St. Louis, Anaheim, or Dallas is in town. The wins feel more ecstatic, the losses sting worse, and the tension from the opening faceoff to the final horn is heightened.
Rivalries are the lifeblood of sports. Ohio State-Michigan, Duke-UNC, Yankees-Red Sox... you HAVE to tune in and watch.
