Its too bad every year we send shit teams to London, y'all deserve an epic Ravens-Steelers game or even better a Niners-Seahawks brawl.. At the least send Tom Brady's bitch ass over there or something! A great Falcons-Saints rivalry?? I know, send Manning Broncos and Brady's Patriots and y'all can have the fanboy hyped game of London history!
More on rivalries... last night the Dodgers clinched their division by beating the hated Giants IN Los Angeles. Not only have we been beefing with them since 1883 (!!!) and that BOTH teams ONLY MOVED to California so they could remain in the same division to continue the rivalry.. but this game was a chance for the Giants to clinch a Wild Card playoff berth.. So not only did we steal the division from those bastards, we hurt their own chances of making the playoffs..
Now THAT is a rivalry with SUBSTANCE, with something actually on the table to lose..
Speaking of which, tonight the New York Giants play the Washington R*****S on Thursday Night Football.. The winner goes 2-2 and has a solid chance at competing for the division with the Phillie Eagles, the loser goes 1-3 in that division and has less than 9% chance of even making the playoffs even with TWELVE more games left to play.. so literally only a quarter into the season and either the Giants or the R******s have a critical chance to thwart a nemesis rival while solidly advancing their own chances
