Yankees vs. Redsox Rivalry pt. 2

One of the things I really enjoyed about college is meeting people from all over the country. I’m from New Jersey so I’m used to the people from New York. One of my suitemates is from Boston, Massachusetts so he obviously is a Boston Redsox fan and a Yankee hater. He wrote the previously posted story in hopes of further explaining of the implicit rivalry.

There are rivalries in all types of entertainment or sports. One of this magnitude is good for life because it gives players more to play for. Instead of the players only playing for their 8 figure checks, the play for pride. They also play for the pride of their fans who take this rivalry just as serious, if not more than the players do. It’s good to have great competition like this amongst extremely arrogant rich men. It makes the players play and actually want to instead of just going through the motions for their salaries.
