If these guys were next to the Yankee bleacher creatures, they would ve got more than a beating!
Also Barret I know you don't know about the rivalry because your from England so your excused, but the rivalry between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox is considered one of the most, if not THE most fierce rivalry in the history of sports. Its been going on for well over 80 years now.

Baseball rivalries have nothing on some of the battles that occur in Europe or college sports, but as far as professional sports in the US goes thats about as big as they come.

Have to agree with Future Raptor Ace. The rivalry is pretty damn crazy. I've seen some pretty odds things happen to cars from New York. Not sure why because the rivalry is on the field but I guess people want to be a part of it in some way or another.

Possibly you don't understand the rivalries between said European and college teams because you're not a fan of them.

Yes the Boston Red Sox/NY Yankees thing is big in USA.

But have 2 cousins go "missing" in a football game of England vs. Scotland...

I should agree well with Fish and RAM, this Yank/Sox thing is rough in America, but commit to a European football team...you sign that commitment with blood.

^Oh please everyone knows Europe has an extremely low crime rate. The US on the other hand has an extreamly high crime rate and many people have been shot up due to this rivalry. I know a few blood members who are Yankee fans and they knifed this one kid for wearing a red sox jersey. A Women who is a Yankee fan was charged with 2nd degree murder for running over red sox fans because they were saying Yankees suck.

I'm sure the same stuff the other way around goes around in Boston, as shown by the original topic
Still think light of the rivalry...?

Nope, but compared to European, yep.
To think Europe has an extremely low crime rate is a joke, perhaps you're thinking of one specific region.

Don't stereotype European sports rivalries as a joke, because I do not take your NY/Boston thing lightly, when anything goes above the line of killing, then it shouldn't be taken lightly.

I didn't take it as a joke, I just think it isn't as bad as the rivalry here. Everyone knows Americans are crazy and we have so much crime issues here compared to you guys in Europe. I was actually complementing you!
