Biggest Rival

by finzrule on Dec 5, 2009 3:52 PM EST

Hey, I'm a Dolphins fan from The Phinsider. I'm still licking my wounds from that loss to you last Sunday. But I'm not here to talk about that.

I have a question. With all these rivalriy games going on in the NFL, it brought up a question. Who is your biggest rival as a Bills fan? I know as a Dolphins fan its the Jets for us, but what about you?

Is it a division rival or someone else?

Just another great fan opinion shared on the pages of BuffaloRumblings.com.

Usually most people would say that it’s the Phins that are the Bills biggest rival, actually.

I personally despise the JEST more, but I think the usual consensus is the Phins.

Bills fan? In Colorado? It's more likely than you think.

Generally speaking, it’s the Phins. Although we have a growing hatred for the Pats.

My top 10

1.) Patriots
2.) Any team Brady plays for
3.) Any team Belichick coaches
4,) Any team Rodney Harrison refers to as “we” on NBC
5.) Any team owned my Bob Kraft and his prissy white collars
6.) Jets
7.) Any team that hangs a banner at their stadium that says 17-0 in a year where they didn’t win the Super Bowl
8.) Dolphins
9.) Cowboys
10.) Any team that pays Vince Wilfork to cheap shot the league

These deserve a rec:

LOL, they did this?! If I could go to a Patriots game, i’d seriously consider hoisting a sign that read: “18-1: LOLCATZ”

I think you’ll find it’s pretty split between fans looking back at the glory days and the Kelly vs. Marino games and still holding the Phins as the Bills’ biggest rivalry. And then you’ll get the Bills fans who hate Brady, Belichick and the Pats and consider them to be the team they’d most like to see us beat. Personally, I spread the hate around and consider all three division opponents to be decent rivalries and the only games that I still get riled up about in a losing season like this one.

Especially if you consider “da feet” of Scott Norwood.

The Jets have the Pats because of the NY vs Bos rivalry. The Bills rival are the Phins. Pitting the cold, blue collar town of Buffalo against the hot, flamboyant city of Miami is a classic match up.

However, the patriots are my personal super bowl.

As weird as it sounds...

I’m really starting to hate Cleveland. Or maybe it’s the fact that we can’t beat Cleveland that makes me hate us. I don’t know.

Maybe the Browns, Lions, Raiders, and Bills are bottom of the barrel division rivals?

This team has more gaping holes than Paris Hilton.

It will always be the Dolphins as well for me.

. Can’t really say the Pats because A my gf is from Boston. And b. We haven’t beat them since like 2003. It can’t be a rivalry if one team always wins. lol Now if the question is which fan base I despise the most it’s definetly the Pats fans IRL.

It can’t be a rivalry if one team always wins.

Um, that’s how the Bills’ fans began hating the Phins…an 0-20 streak against the Dolphins for the entire decade of the 1970s.

Ha and if I had been a live in the 70's I wouldn't have considered it a rivalry.

It would best be described as a loathing hatred. Its a good foundation for a rivalry but it doesn’t actually make it one.

by mob16151 on Dec 6, 2009 3:40 PM EST up reply actions

Personally

I’d say we don’t really have a rival.

Rivalries go both ways. I don’t see the fans of any other team disliking the Bills enough or there being enough interest in the Bills vs anybody to really say there’s a rivalry.

Most of you say Miami, but do Dolphins fans feel that way? This matchup hasn’t meant anything since the mid-90’s. Because of those two factors, I don’t see how this can be a big-time rivalry.
