NFL: 'Skins- Cowboys (of course)
College Football: Army-Navy (the best pure rivalry in sports)
College B-Ball: I'll go with Georgetown-St. Johns back in the day.
NBA: Lakers-Celtics (again back in the day)
NHL: too many to name, but I'll go with one that I have personally been involved in: Caps- Flyers.
Boxing: tempting to go with Ali-Frazier, but I'll be different. I'll go way back with Jake LaMotta vs. Sugar Ray Robinson.
Soccer: Glasgow Celtic vs. Glasgow Rangers. The Old Firm. People who live over there know what I'm talking about. This rivalry has it all. Ethnic, political, and religous rivalries come into play here. At least one fan usually ends up dead after this one.
Baseball: I'll go back in time to the Giants- Dodgers lovefests when both were in NY.
