EDIT: I made a mistake when mentioning the Michigan 'State' Wolverines. I am fully aware that Michigan Wolverines and Michigan State Spartans are two different university teams. I don't know what happened there, must have been a slip of the tongue. (Gig 'em Aggies.) Also, I'm fully aware that Seattle hasn't officially started playing so there are still technically 31 NHL teams. This WAS NOT a mistake - I'm pre-prepping this for future, as I guarantee some whiny bitch will say '"there's 32 teams" in a couple of seasons time. So I'm sticking with 32. Deal with it. Let me know in the comments below what you think the nastiest rivalry in sports is!

[@dethblade4836]

Ninh Ly LSU vs Alabama

[@th3b4shl0r]

Definitely LSU vs. Alabama and the Pittsburgh Steelers against all other teams.

[@NinhLyUK]

I assumed Alabama vs Auburn would be top of the bill?

Steelers vs Ravens for sure.

[@Kylora2112]

I live in New England...I was at a Rush concert outside of Boston and someone had the AUDACITY to wear a Yankees windbreaker. The crowd instantly devolved into a YANKEES SUCK!!! chant until Geddy Lee came out on stage with the local "Beat LA" shirt that Celtics fans were wearing [the Celtics won the NBA Championship later that night against the Lakers] and then it became a FUCK LA!!! chant. But it seems every NHL fan hates the Vancouver Canucks more than any other team.

As an American I was kinda made that no football rivalries made the list, but the top three were either part of actual military conflict or basically gang wars disguised as sporting events so I guess I understand

I believe that in those top 3, there was a specific reason they don't like each other. And using sport was a way of getting one up over the other party.

thats the thing, football (nfl not college) mainly consists of trash talk between the fans. We dont really blow up each others stadiums or anything luckily. But there is absolutely a lot of rivalries throughout the league that are worth looking at and some with a lot of history. For example, Washington (my team) and the Cowboys. College though can be a bit dangerous for sure especially once you get down South where football is the most important thing in life.

[@mrbetabombs2017]

As an argentinian I have mixed feelings about the Boca vs River thing, on one side, there have been many extremely violent situations, many of them are honestly embarrasing, coming from both the players and the fans, on the other hand, WE'RE FINALLY THE NUMBER ONE ON SOMETHING I DON'T CARE IF IT'S ABOUT VIOLENCE!!

I would like to add a couple entries to the list: 1-Here in México we have the Monterey derby between Tigres and Rayados. Everytime they play they make a chaos out of the city, it looks as if protesters were revolting or something! 2-El Salvador and Honduras once went to war over a football (Soccer) Match! -amonst many other factors but it was there. 3-PAOK Salonika and Aris Salonika in Greece also gets quite brutal; in both Soccer and Basketball.

India vs Pakistan at the 1999 World Cup in England. My Dad took me and my brother to Old Trafford for the match. I wore a Pakistan shirt and my brother wore an India shirt.

[@galoglaich3281]

Doesn't really occur in ireland as such except maybe bohs and shamrock rovers.The most notable rivalries are dublin v kerry in gaelic football and munster v leinster in rugby ,but they are mostly lighthearted rivalries,there is a country v city bite to both rivalries ,although the rugby rivalry also has a class tinge to it and its more small cities than country v big city.

Auburn vs. Alabama. No flares or stabbing people in the streets, but someone killed a tree, so there's that.

I have definitely experienced more hate than that stuff. My highschool has a rivalry with the private school and it’s field lacrosse so I get a lot of hate being the goon that takes other guys out of play for the season it’s gotten so bad that we couldn’t finish our game because they all tried to fight me and my team had my back

[@NinhLyUK]

More hate than being tear-gassed and stabbed in the street? And then beaten to death by police? Doubtful.

[@sandalf647]

Senna vs Prost has to be an honourable mention. Or even Hamilton vs Rosberg. Maybe you can do a video of the nastiest rivalries between players?

Ah but that's not what the video was about. But yeah, that's not a bad idea - could do with one about individual players themselves.

[@deathtoluke]

@ninh ly what about Belgrade's Eternalderby Partizan vs Red Star? I would have probably put that number 1

[@NinhLyUK]

It's pretty nasty, but I'd argue that Boca vs River is the worst of them all.

[@TerminalSports45]

Duke and North Carolina Basketball is pretty high up there as well, it's very much like Galatasaray V. Fenerbache where you have two very successful powerhouses who are actually very very close to one another as far as distance is concerned. As for college football, I would make the argument for Alabama and Auburn being among the nastiest, especially in recent years. The NFL's got Baltimore and Pittsburgh, a rivalry that goes back to when the Ravens were the original Cleveland Browns, the entire NFC East against each other, and throw in Chicago and Green Bay for good measure.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah, I'll agree in some part with those.

[@manutdfannum6]

I would say that Michigan v Ohio St is one of a couple major rivalries in American football. My pick would probably be Alabama v Auburn in recent years. Another would have to be Texas v Oklahoma. The Red River Rivalry is one of my favorites since it divides two states who basically only focus on football.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah I agree. In hindsight, I would have put Alabama vs Auburn ahead of Ohio State vs Michigan.

Hey Ninh, I have an idea for you. How about you make a guide to certain league of sports (the history, the team, system, organization, problems, etc.) or about a landscape of sports in certain countries (what is the most favourite, traditional games etc.). Maybe you will guide us to some hidden gem of sports league around the world.

Not sure if I could pull that one off, or what I'd bring that people otherwise couldn't find out for themselves. Not a bad idea though.

Rivalries in the US are huge but you can be a fan from an opposing team and watch and attend a game without being attacked and killed.

[@NinhLyUK]

Exactly! Unlike some of these places.

[@danmorrison8194]

Intersting vídeo but I will say that fighting in hockey is far less prevalent now than it has been in the past. I do like you adding the rivalry with commissioner Bettman. We have no reason to not like him (especially us diehard Pittsburgh Penguins fans) but tradition is to boo him on sight.

[@NinhLyUK]

Exactly. Boo Bettman, even though (by in large) he's done a decent job.

[@vekrom4339]

I do understand the mention of Ohio Stave Vs that state up north as an honorable mention. Because even though we he hate their guts, we don't stab each other in the parking lots.

Almost all the derbies in Brazil end up in riots and shootings. The brazilian football federation even considered to ban matches between teams of the same city. In Mexico we are not that hardcore but games that often end in riots are Burros blancos vs Pumas CU (American foorball) and Irapuato vs León or Irapuato vs Querétaro (soccer). Could it be more, but those are the most violent games that I can remember right now.

[@drewmyself893]

There's a key difference between nasty rivalries and best rivalries. Sporting rivalries still need to maintain the sport. If the players aren't even playing and just trying to injure each other, that's not sport (or at least not the one being played) or if the fans are literally endangering lives you've taken the sport out of it. The best rivalries, to paraphrase a quote from Anchorman, the sides pure straight hate each other, but they never stop respecting one another.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes precisely. And this video covers the former not the latter. There's no respect when any of the teams face off against each other. 'Best rivalries' is a different story altogether.

[@billhorst-kotter5184]

NY Giants vs. Philidelphia Eagles have had a nasty rivialery for a long time with the Eagles' fans being the worst.

[@NinhLyUK]

Meh, I'd argue that Dallas Philadelphia is worse. But still tame compared to what's on the list.

It is my understanding, Bill, that the Eagle faithful believe that when someone puts a man in a Giant uniform, that man thinks he knows everything. God Bless Chuck Bednarik!
