EspañolLOCAL DERBY
In many countries the term 'local derby', or simply just 'derby' (pronounced 'der-bee' in American English and 'dar-bee' in British English after the English city) means a sporting fixture between two (generally local) rivals, particularly in Association Football. In North America (where the word is pronounced 'dur-bee' in American English), "crosstown rivalry" is a more common term. For example, the "Tyne-Wear derby" in the north-east of England is Newcastle United versus Sunderland, which can be very hostile and in 1996 led to all fans from each city being banned from the other during derby day. The term is sometimes also used to describe major rivalries in which both clubs have substantial regional or national followings.
The phrase may have originated from an all-in football game (Royal Shrovetide Football) contested annually between the two halves of the English town of Ashbourne, Derbyshire. This match has been and still is played on Shrove Tuesday. Another theory is that it originated from The Derby, a horse race in England, founded by the 12th Earl of Derby in 1780. Yet another theory is that the 'derby match' saying arose from when Liverpool played Everton. Their two grounds were separated by Stanley Park, owned by the Earl of Derby. This latter suggestion can be discounted, however. The Widnes Weekly News of 9 March 1889 describes a game between the (rugby) football team of that town and the touring Maoris as 'the local Derby'. This usage was three years before Liverpool FC came into existence.
Another widely reported, and somewhat more plausible theory (although not accepted by the Oxford English Dictionary) is that the phrase came about from the city of Derby itself. The traditional Shrovetide football match was also common place in the city. It was renowned as a chaotic and exuberant game which involved the whole town and often resulted in fatalities. The goals were at Nuns Mill in the north and the Gallows Balk in the south of the town, and much of the action took place in the Derwent river or Markeaton brook. Nominally the players came from All Saints' and St Peter's parishes, but in practice the game was a free for all with as many as 1,000 players. A Frenchman who observed the match in 1829 wrote in horror, 'if Englishmen call this play, it would be impossible to say what they call fighting'.
Derbies usually have a much more heated atmosphere between the fans and often the players of the two clubs. For some derbies, an added source of tension between the two clubs can be political or sectarian rivalry.
An example of sectarian rivalry is in the Old Firm derby between the two leading clubs of Glasgow in Scotland. The Old Firm Derby is arguably the biggest derby match in sport, due to the profile of the clubs and their historic rivalry. It should be noted that the Old Firm normally takes place four times per season in the Scottish Premier League, thereby making it a more common fixture than other major derbies. In the matches between Celtic and Rangers, Celtic represents the Catholic population, and Rangers the Protestant population of Glasgow.
'Derby' is commonly used to signify matches between teams in the same town or region, however historical national rivalries, such as Ajax Amsterdam v Feyenoord and Internazionale v Juventus F.C., are sometimes also considered derbies as well as major football rivalries.

:'''Derbies' are not common in popular American sport, because it is not common for mulitiple teams in a given sport to be located in the same city; those that do are generally placed in separate conferences, meaning few games are played between the cross-town teams. 'Rivalries' (local or otherwise) are the popular form of inter-team competition, and often involve intra-state competition. Please see the relevant links below.''

BASEBALL
★ New York Giants v Brooklyn Dodgers — (1890-1957, contested 22 times annually from 1903 until both teams moved after the 1957 season)
★ Chicago Cubs v Chicago White Sox - The Sox bested the Cubs in the 1906 World Series, the only all-Chicago series to date. From 1903 until the adoption of interleague play in 1997, the two teams met annually for an unofficial charity/exhibition game. See also Crosstown Classic

BASKETBALL
★ Los Angeles Clippers v Los Angeles Lakers - Unlike most American derbies, the Lakers and Clippers share a home court at the Staples Center.
FOOTBALL(american)
★ New York Giants v New York Jets — contrary to their names, both share Giants Stadium in New Jersey as their home stadium. This derby is not contested annually, as both clubs are in different conferences.
HOCKEY
★ New Jersey Devils v New York Rangers-Like most American rivralries, this one takes place in the Tri-State Area (New York ,New Jersey ,and Connecticut). Fuel was added into the fire when in 1994 the Rangers came back from a 3-2 deficit to make it to the Stanley Cup. They play each other approximately 7 times a year since they are both in the same division and the NHL schedule pits rivals against each other more.
Note: Some rivalries in the greater New York City area are often mistakenly thought of as derbies since the participants are based a very small distance apart, in some cases less than ten miles apart, but in fact represent and draw supporters from distinct geographical communities. Two examples are the New York Rangers v New York Islanders, and the New York Knicks v New Jersey Nets in the NBA. This contest may develop into a full derby upon the Nets' expected 2008-2009 relocation to the New York borough of Brooklyn, an area currently within the Knicks' fan base. A similar situation exists in the San Francisco Bay Area for baseball and American football; while the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland Athletics are based in very close proximity, as are the San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders, their supporter bases are geographically distinct, separated neatly by the San Francisco Bay.

The phrase may have originated from an all-in football game (Royal Shrovetide Football) contested annually between the two halves of the English town of Ashbourne, Derbyshire. This match has been and still is played on Shrove Tuesday. Another theory is that it originated from The Derby, a horse race in England, founded by the 12th Earl of Derby in 1780. Yet another theory is that the 'derby match' saying arose from when Liverpool played Everton. Their two grounds were separated by Stanley Park, owned by the Earl of Derby. This latter suggestion can be discounted, however. The Widnes Weekly News of 9 March 1889 describes a game between the (rugby) football team of that town and the touring Maoris as 'the local Derby'. This usage was three years before Liverpool FC came into existence.
Another widely reported, and somewhat more plausible theory (although not accepted by the Oxford English Dictionary) is that the phrase came about from the city of Derby itself. The traditional Shrovetide football match was also common place in the city. It was renowned as a chaotic and exuberant game which involved the whole town and often resulted in fatalities. The goals were at Nuns Mill in the north and the Gallows Balk in the south of the town, and much of the action took place in the Derwent river or Markeaton brook. Nominally the players came from All Saints' and St Peter's parishes, but in practice the game was a free for all with as many as 1,000 players. A Frenchman who observed the match in 1829 wrote in horror, 'if Englishmen call this play, it would be impossible to say what they call fighting'.
Derbies usually have a much more heated atmosphere between the fans and often the players of the two clubs. For some derbies, an added source of tension between the two clubs can be political or sectarian rivalry.
An example of sectarian rivalry is in the Old Firm derby between the two leading clubs of Glasgow in Scotland. The Old Firm Derby is arguably the biggest derby match in sport, due to the profile of the clubs and their historic rivalry. It should be noted that the Old Firm normally takes place four times per season in the Scottish Premier League, thereby making it a more common fixture than other major derbies. In the matches between Celtic and Rangers, Celtic represents the Catholic population, and Rangers the Protestant population of Glasgow.
'Derby' is commonly used to signify matches between teams in the same town or region, however historical national rivalries, such as Ajax Amsterdam v Feyenoord and Internazionale v Juventus F.C., are sometimes also considered derbies as well as major football rivalries.

United States
:'''Derbies' are not common in popular American sport, because it is not common for mulitiple teams in a given sport to be located in the same city; those that do are generally placed in separate conferences, meaning few games are played between the cross-town teams. 'Rivalries' (local or otherwise) are the popular form of inter-team competition, and often involve intra-state competition. Please see the relevant links below.''
Professional
:''For rivalries that are not derbies, please see: MLB, NHL, NFL, and NBA''
BASEBALL
★ New York Giants v Brooklyn Dodgers — (1890-1957, contested 22 times annually from 1903 until both teams moved after the 1957 season)
★ Chicago Cubs v Chicago White Sox - The Sox bested the Cubs in the 1906 World Series, the only all-Chicago series to date. From 1903 until the adoption of interleague play in 1997, the two teams met annually for an unofficial charity/exhibition game. See also Crosstown Classic
★ New York Mets v New York Yankees — Subway Series, began in 1997, contested during the 2000 World Series.
FOOTBALL (association)
★ Chivas USA v Los Angeles Galaxy — Honda SuperClasico
BASKETBALL
★ Los Angeles Clippers v Los Angeles Lakers - Unlike most American derbies, the Lakers and Clippers share a home court at the Staples Center.
FOOTBALL(american)
★ New York Giants v New York Jets — contrary to their names, both share Giants Stadium in New Jersey as their home stadium. This derby is not contested annually, as both clubs are in different conferences.
HOCKEY
★ New Jersey Devils v New York Rangers-Like most American rivralries, this one takes place in the Tri-State Area (New York ,New Jersey ,and Connecticut). Fuel was added into the fire when in 1994 the Rangers came back from a 3-2 deficit to make it to the Stanley Cup. They play each other approximately 7 times a year since they are both in the same division and the NHL schedule pits rivals against each other more.
Note: Some rivalries in the greater New York City area are often mistakenly thought of as derbies since the participants are based a very small distance apart, in some cases less than ten miles apart, but in fact represent and draw supporters from distinct geographical communities. Two examples are the New York Rangers v New York Islanders, and the New York Knicks v New Jersey Nets in the NBA. This contest may develop into a full derby upon the Nets' expected 2008-2009 relocation to the New York borough of Brooklyn, an area currently within the Knicks' fan base. A similar situation exists in the San Francisco Bay Area for baseball and American football; while the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland Athletics are based in very close proximity, as are the San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders, their supporter bases are geographically distinct, separated neatly by the San Francisco Bay.
