Heh, it's nice to build up some buzz about this ;-)

It's part of the new attendance feature. There will be an "offseason's over" news post about it shortly explaining it further.

Hey rival! Yeah you 'molinas de la hoz'!!!

I just did some translating and I don't know what 'oil mill of the sickle' means, but I don't like it. DIG? We are now beyond mere rivals, we are arch rivals!

Alabama v Auburn
Red Sox v Yankees
Browns v Steelers
Man U v Spurs
Celtics v Lakers

and...

Molina v JLA

GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

since we have a rivalry now

does the game get more heat as they play
injuries and such stuff

we are just going to depend on a 2 game due to the rivalry . . .. wow we get to have sure 2 full houses . . .

and you only get 1 time out of this . . . . and how long is the season?

Mark said it's part of the attendance review their performing.

All I know is: if rivalry games mean more attendance, then this is just ridiculous. A measure that will benefit once again those teams with huge stadiums, and will kick the balls of teams that didn't overbuild their arena for seasons and seasons, that don't currently have money to expand arena, and that won't have money to expand arena because of the 40% cut.

But hey, I'm bitching about something that wasn't said, so... let's just wait and see.

I am curious why you use the word overbuild.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

It's not overbuilt now, sure
But how many teams with 16/17k + arenas were getting full attendance, ever?

i feel you mate! very deeply !

truth is, its a wait and see thing. because if it didnt go smoothly im going to bitching to them like there is no tom .

joke i wouldnt do that . . . but we need to voice out this matter once we see a trend of how this goes.

truth is, with this rivalry and people knowing it its like watching the lakers and boston then when bird vs magic.

imagine how much money can you make more especially if it falls to a tv game . . . right now its 35k plus attendance . . . for a division 1 something stinks :D maybe after this season this thing coudl get bloated again

This makes me a little bit scared, because I guess that the news will be something like this "winning against your rival is extra important".

Considering that some teams have gotten several rivals, while others (like mine), have none this would be completely unfair. Of course for me it would be could, as it is more likely that teams will play TIE against me to be prepared for their meeting with their rival. But, for the poor team that happens to get several rivals this could be an absolut nightmare.

Anyway, I hope my assumption is completely wrong and that the news will be something like "you get extra money when you meet your rival" (but then I do not see what it would add to the game). If the rival will be extra important for the fan mood O would suggest that you redo the rivalries so it becomes a 1-to-1 match.
