sportprof101 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Hello White Sox Fans, With the help of message board members beginning in 2014, we—the students and professors of the Know Rivalry Project—began studying rivalry in the MLB. Please help us update and expand our results to ensure that the Chicago White Sox are included by taking 9 minutes to complete our newest survey: https://umassamherst.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3FdJ8eN2EgFCfCB?mbsrc=krdir&grpID=1368 Our previous results have been featured in numerous sports media outlets, as well as the Wall Street Journal and New York Times. You can view those results, links to media coverage, and learn more about us at our KnowRivalry.com website BUT we'd prefer you didn't until you completed the survey via the link above... we don't want to influence your opinions provided in the survey. We use the Qualtrics online survey software for data collection. This academic research has been approved by two US universities' Institutional Review Boards (IRB) and it poses no risks to respondents. You'll find more information on the disclosure agreement that is required to start the survey. Thank you for helping us to include the Chicago White Sox by participating and please feel free to share this with any other fans that may also help. Jonah, Student Researcher, Northern Kentucky University Dr. Joe Cobbs, Northern Kentucky University Dr. David Tyler, University of Massachusetts—Amherst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything the fan bases like each other more than any other two MLB teams. I've worn a sox cap to multiple Cards games in St Louis and I've been given more hi fives, cheers, and "fuck the cubs" than I can count. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cardinals and Brewers have stopped a lot of Cubs success lately. I hate every team in our division except the Royals first and foremost. I also hate the Yankees and in the NL the Cubs and Padres.

Does that mean they have no true rival? I would say right now it is the Indians and then the Twins. The Tribe have competed against us all 90's and even were a thorn in 2005. They were a pain last year and this year as well at the start of our rebirth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Indians in the 90's, Twins in the 2000-2014ish. Twins and Indians since. Cubs always for different reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually a fan of the Cardinals because I think they are a well run organization and they are the Cubs primary rival. I like to see them win.

There is no Sox Cards rivalry whatsoever. They rarely play each other and the fan bases usually want each other to beat up on the Cubs. I couldn't have told you half of the Cards players when they were in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
