I was just wondering who you all think is the best rivalry in the Nfl...Im gonna have to go with my team the packers against the bears. In recent years its been the packers - vikes, but no way matches the history between our many battles with the bears. What u all think?

ESPN did a show on it once. They has Cowboys vs Skins.

It went back to when the Cowboys came into the league and the owner of the Skins tried to block it. It is interesting.

Vikes/pack no doubt. The other rivalries are more one sided, our rivalry is about as close as it gets!!

If this is the case, then the Skins are getting the short end of the stick...they can't beat the Cowgirls to save their lives! And you wouldn' t believe the huge amounts of Dallass fans here in the DC area...DC/VA/MD natives who delight in every Dallass victory...my theory is that all the a$$holes who just like to be contrary in EVERYTHING and start crap with people are the ones who are Dallass fans here!

Is there any other series like the Viking/pack rivalry. I mean when it comes to wins and losses. The vikes are now 1 game behind the pack in the overall series (if you include the playoffs, 2 games if you don't). I don't think there are any other rivalries that are that competitive. He!! I think the Twins/Brewers series is only about 6 or 7 games apart too, that is crazy (Brewers have the upper hand in that too!)

Football is my favorite sport and the Vikes are by far my favorite team. But if you are talking rivalry in pro sports it has to be the Yankees and Red sox!!!! Also close if you are talking all sports is North Carolina and Duke!!! Those two are probably bigger than Vikes and packs!!!
