About mrmetsdaily
Mike and Bill are long time buddies with a lot of things they agree upon; and some they definitely do not! Namely, their choice of sports teams. Mike is a fan of the New York Mets, Bill likes the Phillies, Mike follows the NY Giants while Bill is a devoted follower of the Dallas Cowboys, Mike is a huge NY Ranger fan, Bill is a Flyer fanatic. They do however share an appreciation of good beer,fine cigars and beautiful women.
One Sunday afternoon in the winter of 2008 while discussing sports over, you guessed it, good beer and fine cigars, (sorry guys, no beautiful women) a friendly argument ensued.
Bill felt the Phillies would repeat as NL East Champs while Mike insisted the Mets stunning choke job at the end of last season was actually a preplanned event designed to rest Pedro Martinez for the start of the 2008 season (what else could he say?).
The intelligent conversation between our two geniuses then carried over to Football. Bill stated that the NY Giants Super Bowl victory in 2007/2008 was a massive fluke and that the Dallas Cowboys would win it all next season, Mike informed him that he was an idiot and that it had been rumored that Jessica Simpson had dumped Tony Romo for Eli Manning (evidently bad news for Giants fans).
As our two Rocket Scientists failed to gain common ground on these issues they turned their attention to Hockey. Needless to say they both came very close to getting game misconduct penalties for fighting when Bill's wife came home to play referee.
At the end though they came up a with great idea (very rare for these guys believe me). The Sports topics they were debating were about some tremendous and historic Sports Rivals. They got to thinking ( a first); if we love debating about our Sports Rivals there are millions of fans out there who do as well. That may be a well known fact but where is there a site devoted just to Sports Rivalries?
That is how on March 10, 2008 www.myteamrivals.com
was born. This site was designed for passionate sports fans who love their teams, hate their sports rivals, and love to debate with those obviously uninformed fans who dare disagree. The site started with just the Phillies- Mets rivalry, but will soon expand to all major sports rivalries. It is designed to be a fun, entertaining site for fans to gain useful and up to date information about their favorite teams, as well as important facts about their key rivals to help you in future sports debates, (including the history of the teams head to head).
The site will also generate other fun topics about which to debate. We will have a model to represent each and every team on this site. Can you imagine any self respecting Red Sox fan thinking the Yankee girl was hot? (But just in case they want to be fair minded the full picture gallery for each model of each team will always be available for all to view).
So please check in with us as often as you like. Gather as much fun (and lets face it useless) information as possible. Be prepared to whip your buddies on debates concerning sports rivals. We hope to see you back many, many times in the future and hope you enjoyed your visit to www.myteamrivals.com.
