I don't share that opinion, because Oakland has sucked for a decade and we have for close to a half-decade.
Cards-Cubs doesn't have the same luster when both are out of the race - though that hasn't happened in a while.
Rivalries like these will always exist, but are fluid, IMO. Some years it's just going to be more intense than others.

I'm sorry, but professional sports rivalries are a little different. MU vs KU hatred gets passed on from student to student every year, no matter how good or bad the respective teams are doing. This is the reason the only game that sells out Mizzou Arena every year is when KU rolls into town. Same thing at KU, the students don't get up for any other game like they do for the KU vs MU one. That's just how it is.
Your analogies are pretty weak, fellas.
