    So why have the Sox been bad for almost 90 years now? No, I'm not a Yankee fan but I've heard about this for a while. The Red Sox have not done anything or been able to get anything done since 1918 so what's been holding the team down. I've been told a true Red Sox fan can tell me the reason behind this awful slump. Please inform if you truly believe in karma and such.

    The Sawx made the World Series in 1986, so it isn't as though they have been terrible since 1918, it is just that the Yankees have been soooooo much better.

    Best local rivalries.

    Astros/Cubs

    Texans/Cowboys (I hate the Cowboys...if the Nazi's played the Cowboys i'd have to think about it.)

    Some rivalries I'm apart of

    Raiders vs Everyone else: Al Davis vs Tags, Raiders vs Referees, if something can go against the raiders, it will.

    Pac10 vs BCS. How will they screw USC again...

    I hope these rivalries come back in CFB...

    USC/Notre Dame and USC/fUCLA.

    Red Sox/Yankees. Seriously, nothing else compares in my view in pro sports. Nothing.

    I have to agree with these two in the NFL, the first has the hate, the second has the age.

    In Houston, the Glanville Oilers vs. the Wyche Bengals rilvary got pretty intense.
