They are rivals because they play in the same city and fans of Chicago are split between rooting for the two teams. The typical Chicago Cubs fan lives on the north side of Chicago while Sox fans are south siders. The rest of the city is pretty much up for grabs.
For the Cubs, it's probably the St. Louis Cardinals For the White Sox, my guess would be either the Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers or Milwaukee Brewers.
cubs
The cardinals and cubs hometowns are pretty close to each other
the sox were around longer than the cubs. i just think the when the cubs came around the sox just lost some of there players.
Sox fan
No, the White Sox are in the American League, and the Cubs are in the National League.
