Detriot: calls itself Hockeytown USA - at least when they are on Canadian broadcasts Toronto and Montreal always debate who is "Hockeytown"... sure they have more Stanley Cups... but we got the Hall of Fame. (Besides the Habs suck)

Celtic vs Rangers: first recorded soccer riot in 1899, required the military to intervene... and always be careful how you answer the question: "Are you left or right footed?" when in Glasgow...

The first Bears vs. Packers game was in 1923. It's taken awhile to build the rivalry.

Pitt vs. Penn State was a great rivalry for many years, including while I was at Pitt. We don't play them at the moment, but hopefully they'll get over their fear off having their blue and white butts whooped and get back on the schedule

Army-Navy is an incredible rivalry! I've never seen a student body as pumped up as the cadets and mids get for this game. Of course, they're brainwashed from the moment they set foot on their respective campuses, but it's still all good

With you being a Nebraska fan I see why you hate teams from Florida after all Nebraska is a big reason why Miami and that Fla State team have National Championships.

The Ohio State University vs. Michigan

Texas Tech vs. Texas
I know no one else sees it as a rivalry, but Tech fans do. Saw 'em off!

The Rangers vs. Celtic abuse does not only goes between Catholic vs. Protestants. In the past, whenever a black players goes out on the field, the crowd will either make monkey noises or throw bananas at the field. I believe they have clamp down on it big time. They know have closed circuit television to monitor the fans. If any of them violate any of FIFA, UEFA or the club's rule, they will be found and ban from the stadium for life in some cases.

Hey, thanks a lot to those of you who posted something that was relevant! That's what I wanted to hear about-acutal rivalries and specific teams that you dislike, as opposed to juvenile commentary and name calling. It's nice to have some mature insights from most of you!
