But a Sox-Yankees ALCS is bigger than whatever WS series follows it.

I probably just misinterpreted "important rivalry" to be distinct from "biggest rivalry." Of course the Yankees will be more hated as they are more closely tied to the success of their division rivals with whom they compete for most of the year. So yeah, not arguing that.

I just meant right now. Obviously the Dolphins have a respectable legacy. And really my familiarity with them at any given moment is impacted by my being 3,000 miles away, so take that for what it's worth.
