Seriously, are you slow? I don't want to offend, but I don't want to keep at it with someone that has a legitimate issue.

National interest doesn't define relevancy nor greatest rivalry. It is used primarily in pro rivalries because we have nothing else. Quite simply, pro rivalries don't invoke the same passion on the same scale, as a general rule. Thus, we're looking toward the overall impact on the country in lieu of a really huge, concentrated impact.

Pro rivalries invoke plenty of passion. How old are you? Where are you from? Just because Harvey Updyke exists, it doesn't mean other sports lack passion. Plenty of people lose their shite over the Cowboys. Just because you are ignorant to others passion, you can't use this as a defense.
