<p>For example, the ever-so popular UCLA vs. USC. Are you okay with it, or do you think it's dumb?</p>
<p>It's fine as long as you know when to drop it.</p>
<p>What a stupid question. </p>
<p>I think rivalries are part of what makes the college experience.</p>
<p>I guess it's the stupid questions you just can't help but answer.</p>
<p>Stupid answer to a stupid question.</p>
<p>i do think its kinda dumb question.. but i think theyre fun! rivalries are there all throughout your life. in HS its the surrounding towns in sports, then in college it just swtiches to a college, and if you follow professional sports its there too. i automatically hate on Notre Dame and BU whenever i have the chance and have tons of fun doing it =) same with hating the red sox</p>
<p>its all fun!</p>
<p>I love them (rivalries, I mean)!!! I mean, one team has to win, one team has to lose. Rivalries are what create school spirit. Oh PS, Michigan sucks. So does Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ohio State, Purdue, Notre Dame, Northwestern, etc etc :D</p>
<p>To Hell with Georgia !!</p>
<p>Gotta love the rivalries.</p>
<p>RPI Sucks
SLU Swallows</p>
<p>Rivalries are fun.</p>
<p>yep. screw usc.</p>
<p>Sometimes, it feels kind of artificial. I'd prefer it was taken to be analogous to sibling rivalaries, not enmities.</p>
<p>i think they are dumb because it encourages hatred based on what college you go to!! thats so dumb</p>
<p>^^^^
If people really hate members of a rival college then they need to seek professional help. Most rivalries are good fun.</p>
<p>One of my favorite aspects of BC is our rivalry with Notre Dame.</p>
<p>University of Tampa and Florida Southern suck. Lake Gibson HS and Edgewater HS also sucked.</p>
<p>I don't see why I should or shouldn't "be okay with it." I don't care.</p>
<p>I've always wondered if BC students have the same sort of rivalry with BU that we Terriers seem to think we have with you. Maybe it's because I don't see people from BC that often, but I feel like the BU/BC rivalry is kind of one-sided.</p>
<p>^^I think you'd be right in your implication. I don't think anyone on campus purposely goes around thinking about BU, lol. Outside of the Beanpot, the BU/BC rival is pretty much non-existent.</p>
<p>I think students are more worried about ND and doing well in the ACC/hoping to get into a non-mediocre bowl game during football season.</p>
<p>Rivalries are cool.</p>
<p>Rivalries are fun except when some people take it too far, but those people usually know nothing.</p>
<p>competition = fun.</p>
<p>just don't be a hooligan</p>
