I refuse to let them turn this into something.

Daseal said it best, "I guess it must hurt to have a competitive team that is constantly crushed in popularity be a perennial bottom-dweller right down the road."

Sad part is, I used to want them to do well...










...until I met their fans; and there are only two types:

1) You live in Baltimore or 3-4 miles from that city or;
2) You only know the team from 2000 on...

I'm reading you....I'm understanding you and trying to find comfort in the words with bottom dweller and all but....
The definition of the word "rivalry" speaks of the competition "on the field" For me and other fans the field exists at work, home, facebook, ect.
It's a fans rivalry for bragging rights for sure! The competition is beat down your competitor with bragging. We haven't had much to brag about for a long time. Here on the north east side of fanville it's in your face! It's rivalry here alright....Yes indeedie!!!
