    Everybody knows I'm not a bandwagoner because when LSU lost to Arkansas in 2007, I kind of lost it.

      Are the Chiefs and Rams a rivalry game in the NFL? It just hit me that they are in the same state but I dont recall them being a big time rivalry.

        Replace with Michigan, Texas, and "2005" and you have me.

          No.

          The Rams haven't really been in St. Louis long enough to build a rivalry. It's only been what, 15 years? Throw in the fact that the teams are in different conferences and there's not much to build on. They do play for a "Governor's Cup" every year, whether the pre-season or regular season, but I can't say I care all that much about it.

            This,

            It's a shame that the Rams are in STL as they had a very fierce rivalry with the Niners back in the late '70s right up until they left California altogether.

              Yea being in separate Conferences would make it kind of hard to call it a rivalry game. Because I think the way the schedule is drawn up they should only play each other every 4 years.

                  Yeah I feel like alot of pro interstate games lack rivalry atmospheres.

                      I'm an Auburn fan, and it's obvious I'm not a bandwagoner.

                      I'm also a Tampa Bay Bucs and LA Lakers fan, but those get questioned from time to time. I've liked the Lakers since I got my first real basketball game (not called NBA Jam).. so before Kobe or Shaq were ever around and before any of the recent championships. I don't talk about it much, because I get tired of defending myself.. who gives a ****.. it's the team I like. Before Ariza was let go, he was my favorite player on the team.

                      I really don't think it's a big deal what team people want to root for. It's their choice, their life, and their time spent watching games.. I follow the Lakers and Bucs closely and I consider myself a fan. I go watch them when they come close (Memphis, ATL, etc) and I've seen them in Staples three times.. and I get pissed at the fans sitting on their hands in Staples all the time... that's my biggest complaint usually.

                        I think that's more akin to a Yanks/Mets dynamic as both fanbases are pretty much in the NYC area so strictly speaking it's interstate but more inter-city.

                        How big is Philly/Pittsburgh in the NFL?

                            I'm so pissed off right now, my grandpa wants his car back that I originally had plan with that when I went to college I would pay him for it and it would be done in like 3 months or so.

                            Now my uncle is getting the car when he already has one and has almost $5K saved up from his job, so now i'm back without a car for the last 2 weeks of school the summer and now back to saving up for a car.
