Browns-Steelers rivalry : ウィキペディア英語版 | Browns–Steelers rivalry
The Browns–Steelers rivalry is a National Football League rivalry between the Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers. With 127 meetings and counting, it is the oldest rivalry and the most storied in the American Football Conference, surpassing any other rivalry in the conference by at least 5 games. The two divisional foes have a natural rivalry due to the commonalities between the cities, proximity, etc. It is sometimes called the Turnpike Rivalry or Turnpike War because the majority of the driving route between the two cities are via the Pennsylvania and Ohio Turnpikes. ==Similarities between the cities==
The rivalry was primarily fueled by the close proximity between the two cities, as Cleveland and Pittsburgh are roughly 135 miles apart. Many fans make the two-hour drive by car to road games. Also, the city of Youngstown, Ohio is roughly located at the halfway mark between the two cities and is within the 75-mile blackout radius for both teams. The Youngstown television market has dual rights to both teams. Both teams have such strong fan bases that neither typically has blackout issues since the current rules were implemented in , although the final two games of the 1995 season were blacked out in Cleveland (the last two prior to the move to Baltimore); one of these games was against their in-state rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals. The Youngstown area fan base remains roughly split 50/50 between the Steelers and Browns.
