Quandary
When two of your alma mater's rivals are playing each other, who do you cheer for? The team that is, technically, considered your team's classic "rival," with a storied history of hard-fought games and insults slurred back and forth, but towards which you've never really felt all that much animosity? Or the team that's only kind of a rival, with less of the history, but whose students are so goddamned annoying you sort of want them to lose just so you can enjoy the looks of shocked surprise on their cute, perfectly-made-up faces?

I think you get in extra trouble if your sibling attended the one you're dying to see lose... (ahem) My college football question of the weekend was about when your undergrad and grad school play each other in the nerdy rivaly of the century... any thoughts?
You root for the traditional rivals, because then the assholes lose, and when your school beats the traditional rivals, it's beating both of the assholes and maintaining tradition.
