Everyone in the NFC North anyway.
ESPN put together a list (lists!) of every NFL team’s biggest rival. When they circled around to the NFC North, the Green Bay Packers were listed as the biggest rival of every other team in the division.
And I guess, could you really argue?
The Packers and the Bears have the oldest rivalry in the NFL. They first met in 1921. It was noted — at least in the past — for great moments like this.
The Packers and the Lions have the oldest continuously-running rivalry in the NFL. They’ve met every season since 1932. There isn’t really anything particularly notable about this rivalry other than that.
But these are the Lions we’re talking about. They don’t matter.
If you’re wondering why the Packers and Bears haven’t met every year since 1921, you can chalk that up to the player strike of 1982. That cost the Packers both games with the Bears.
And finally, the Minnesota Vikings. A greater bunch of scumbags there has never been.
While Packers-Bears trumps everything from a historical perspective, we’ve always hated the Vikings more. That’s probably no secret.
Why?
It’s because of their fans. At once totally ignorant and totally insistent that their team is superior to yours and this, yes this is their year. Bears fans simply aren’t as stupid and they aren’t as delusional. Vikings fans, with their consistent mouth diarrhea, their idiotic skols and their stupid fucking horn truly make the Minnesota Vikings the worst.
And that’s what makes it so pleasurable to pummel those assholes.
So then I guess the question is, who is the Packers’ biggest rival?
Discuss.
