PU, because we are IU. Kentucky, for the same reason. Grew up in NWI as a Blackhawk fan, who went to their games. But would include the Red Wings, because of at the time I was a Blackhawk fan. Great rivalry, though. And Steelers.... because they were well, the Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawks rivalry needs no explanation, and I grew to loathe Detroit after being eliminated from the playoffs by the them in something like 5 out of 7 years in the late 90s/early 00s. Irony, my dad was a native south-sider and grew up a Hawks fan, favorite player being Bobby Hull. My team winds up being the Blues, naturally my favorite player being Brett Hull.

And Stan Mikita. Two all time favorites of mine. Yeah, Red Wings on the not favorite team list. Your dad being a south-sider, I am going to assume his least favorite team was the Cubs. And what a trip to the Chicago Stadium to watch the Blackhawks it was. Weird, scary, and exhilarating. After dark. All at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've heard stories about the old Chicago Stadium. I think he was only half joking when he said when the game would let out, you'd see all the cigarette smoke rolling out the doors, making it almost look like the building was on fire.

I think you are wrong. Cardinal fans are baseball purists. They understand the game. They, like the Yankees, are a proud and very successful franchise. Hell, my Dad is a Cardinal fan.
