There are few things sports fans love more than a good old-fashioned, bitter rivalry. That's especially true in Greater Cincinnati. If we can't taste championships, we can at least savor the occasional victory over our hated regional foes.
But here's an upsetting thought: Our major league sports enemies may not be thinking about us as much as we think about them. At least that's according to new research by students and faculty at Northern Kentucky University, which took a scientific look at rivalries among Major League Baseball and National Football League teams.
Joining Cincinnati Edition to talk about that research is Northern Kentucky University Sports Business Professor Joe Cobbs, PhD. Also joining the program to talk about the history of rivalries our own Cincinnati Reds have engaged in is author and sports journalist John Erardi.
Listen to Cincinnati Edition live at noon M-F. Audio for this segment will be uploaded after 4 p.m. ET.
