Just a little history lesson on our rivalry as we head into this 1st Round match up.
Season 1 Antwerp started out in WE A division but when it looked like we may promote up a discussion between members of both teams during that season began the rivalry.
During Season 2 when after winning the Single A Championship we jumped up to AAA an avatar bet between myself and the Notorious T-Noles was made in which the loser had to sport the avatar of the others choosing. When we played in week 12 it was a close game with Antwerp the victor 22-19 with a FG in the 4th quarter: http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=15187 No post season matchup as the Pimps bowed out in the 2nd round to Korb and Antwerp lost in the Conference Championship game to Korb also.
Pimps - 0
Antwerp - 1
Season 3 saw the budding rivalry pit the 2 teams against each other on opening day, while no bets were made on this game, a lot of trash talking was thrown down by both parties, the outcome was another close game with the Pimps the victor 16-10, scoring all there points in the 4th quarter: http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=42035
But season 3 also saw these 2 teams meet again in the AAA Zeta Conference Championship game where once again the Pimps were the victors in a game that showed they were ready for the Pros as they went on to claim the AAA Crown: http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=77873
Pimps - 2
Antwerp - 1
Season 4 saw the Pimps with a successful run in there 1st season in WEPL going 13-3 and losing in Round 2 of the playoffs, while the Twerps went 16-0 and also lost in the second round of the AAA playoffs.
Season 5 saw the Pimps go 13-3 again in WEPL and lost a heart breaker in the WE Championship game to the Paris Philharmonic 21-20 after Paris staged a 4th quarter comeback. Antwerp went 15-1 and beat Black Watch in the AAA Championship in dominating fashion 44-6, setting the stage for the rivalry to continue as the Twerps moved up to the big stage.
Season 6 saw the rivalry renewed in week 6 after Antwerp got off to a very bad start in WEPL losing 4 straight games heading into there match up with the Pimps who were again looking strong, the outcome was one of the most lopsided losses in the storied rivalry with the Pimps shellacking the Twerps 55-37: http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=212332 Antwerp went on to finish 4-12 in there 1st season in WEPL while the Pimps went 12-4 before bowing out in the 1st round of the playoffs.
Pimps - 3
Antwerp - 1
Season 7 and Antwerp felt they were ready to be a contender in WEPL and bring some fire back into the rivalry, meeting the Pimps in week 3, it was not meant to be as the Pimps again were the victors 34-26: http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=290776 and went on to make another appearance in the WEPL playoffs while Antwerp had a sub .500 season but showed some promise with late season wins against Stockholm (eventual Champs) and ending BFM's perfect season in week 16. Maybe things would be better in season 8.
Pimps - 4
Antwerp - 1
Season 8 saw the rivalry take a turn as Antwerp was able to pull off a win 31-23 : http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=375283&mode=pbp in week 2 of the regular season. Both teams finished this season 11-5 with Antwerp capturing the 3 seed and the Pimps the 6th seed. So that brings us to the match up we have now: http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=657&team2=618
