1. I already said I don't consider them a rival, IMHO
2. I already said there is gray area that this exists in, which I think means I agree with you
3. Your example is silly. We don't play them a lot, we've only lost once in exhibition games, no one hates them.
4. While language requires disciplined thinking and words become meaningless when used to describe everything (which should be noted, not one person here has even remotely suggested) - we can argue over the degrees to which a team fits the agreed upon definition without questioning their ability to understand the word itself.
5. Your take here is that you are the sole arbiter of where that line is drawn is silly. People can disagree. Especially about sports rivalries. One of the central pillars of the modern day ESPN is built on this kind of arguing of semantics (see: First Take).
6. This is the last thing I'll say about Rutgers as a rival and it's something we can all agree: They suck.
