Boston vs NYC is all sports related and I would say as far as baseball goes, Red Sox fans definitely have the Yankees in their mind more than vice versa.
Of course the Patriots are more dominant than the Giants but the Giants have overcame them when they met in the past so theirs a mutual beef there.
You won’t see a New Yorker wasting their time vandalizing someone’s property over Red Sox gear. Can’t say the same for Boston.
LOL you didn't see riot police on the field at Fenway during the 2004 ALCS like you did at Yankee Stadium.
Boston is in no way obsessed with NYC many people have never even been to NYC. Boston is infamous for being insular and provincial . It's not called "the hub" for nothing, that muckname comes from how unbothered Bostonians are of the world beyond their city. There's a reason the nations first RSN was NESN.
NY actually likes pushing that narrative because they can't stand cities that should be in their realm being so uninterested in them.
Have to agree here. Most Bostonians dont care about NY, and/or realize its overhyped. Its more of a rivalry between the two cities. Love isnt mutual.

Being overhyped is more of your opinion. Boston can be overhyped as well. A city with world class amenities but being as openly racist as a southern plantation owner back in the 1800s.

Boston can be a bit hostile and racist to minorities for such a so called liberal city. I didn't think Boston was that liberal even thou I did enjoy living in Boston.

I enjoy the city as well when I visit and will be back in 2 weeks after I take a trip to Rhode Island. But I’m normally in the Mattapan and Dorchester communities.
What city is super obsessed with another city that DOES care?!
Based on simply what I see in people posting here, the Dallas/Houston rivalry is pretty fierce. I think you would have to have two cities that are pretty equal on the different matrixes people use to measure a city and/or metro area's standing along with some kind of mythical title they are both chasing. In this case, the preeminent city in the state. Others might be Capital of the _____ (South, Midwest, West, etc, etc)

Lol comparing stop and frisk to sports fans yelling racial slurs? Haha nice one!
At least stop and frisk gets a pass since they actually find weapons and drugs on people. (I’m black btw)
