In what is one of the best round 2s in all of GLB, we have two of the better rivalries happening right now in LC. With Eden and Zambezi going at it again in the other matchup, looking to win their 3rd consecutive playoff game vs the Silverbacks and yet ANOTHER trophy or two...we have the two Saharas battling it out here!

The Monsters are 0-2 vs the Storm, 0-3 if you include scrimmages. So what makes this a rivalry? Well....obviously the City! There can only be ONE Sahara!!! And obviously Storm has made sure that all the fans here go to their home games...while we suffer much like the Clippers or Mets But what has really sparked this matchup was what happened at the end of last season. In week 16, the Monsters were poised to capture the 8th seed as the Storm had a very tough matchup and were on the outside looking in. Well...they won and proceeded to knock us out on that final week!

Now here's to hoping we can finally get our revenge; make this rivalry LEGIT, end the Storm's season like they did ours, make our 2nd conference championship in the last 3 seasons(possibly a rematch vs Eden?), make our game better then Eden/Zambezi's, spoil their 17-0 season, and finally get back all of our rightful fans and media attention reclaiming Sahara!!!

Good Luck! This was a long time coming....this should be one of those special weeks that we all play GLB for! Superbowl x2 in round 2 imo!

Hopefully whoever wins can make a mockery of lolEC!!

this really feels like a rivalry week all around. if we change history and win, we will take either sahara as a worthy opponent.

i think justice would be served if zambezi and SSM both get the monkey off their backs and meet in the conference finals.

if eden and the storm had any good inside of them, they would role over and let that happen.

yeah what makes this day/week even better is the fact that while the top 4 seeds/teams in LC all won and proceed to form this epic rivalry week....all top 4 EC teams lost...which I've NEVER seen before...especially at this level...including 16-0 MARAWKO!!!!! That's really something else...what are the odds..how often do you see a 16-0 team lose in the first round while accompanied by all of their fellow home teams...it seems marawko will be stuck here forever until they decide to gut...how long have they been here anyway?

This week and next week I think will be harder then the championship...no offense to whoever comes out on top

Rivalry Week! We could not have predicted a better setting for LC and EC both. Two LC playoff games that have the biggest rivalries in the conference going at it for the right to fight for the LC championship which will be THE Championship. No disrespect to EC but this is very strange to have the top 4 in LC and the bottom 4 in EC to compete for the League Championship.

Good luck Zambezi/Eden in your game and may it be fun and competitive. SSM, we will settle the right for the Sahara title here. Good luck to you guys! Enjoy the frozen locker rooms to get dressed in and may the fire sprinkling system douse your bodies to hypothermia.

Awesome game guys!!! Well played!!!! Our D really stepped things up...watched every play from start to finish and boy was I scared before that fumble!

With all the hype rivalry week was getting, I CANNOT BELIEVE it not only exceeded the hype, but just demolished all expectations. The Eden-Silverbacks game was something else...I would've watched that if I wasn't so worn out from our game...I can only imagine how the Silverbacks must've felt after going for it on 4th and 10 in own territory..amazing

Yes!! Monkey off the back...we're now 1-3 vs you....1-0 in the playoffs!! This has to be one of my favorite wins in GLB...right up there with my championship win as owner of the Immortals in arguably the toughest expansion league of all time.

It was a fun day at the office for LC and the strength of the 4 remaining teams were pretty even. We hope we can get lucky and still get promoted to continue our rivalries. Good luck! It was a tough loss and may be the most memorable one but not the favorite. LOL!

Congrats on the win Ocho. Finish it off right and win the big one! Losing sucked .... hard ... but it will suck even more if you don't win it all. Now get to work!

Good luck (from the 'other' Sahara.)
