in the Beelzebubbas’ record-setting win over the Smack Daddies.
RECORDS FALL IN WEEK TWO
Beelzebubbas set new scoring mark
By R.E. Porter, Associated Web Press
With their 233.5 - 108.5 stomping of the defending champions Atlanta Smack Daddies in week two, the West Nashville Beelzebubbas not only established a new team single-game scoring mark — the franchise also sent a bold message to their NFFA opponents that they are back!
Since 2002, when West Nashville won the first NFFA championship, longtime observers of the league have watched team owner and coach Boyd X. Biggs focus less and less on fielding a competitive team and more and more on his off-the-field interests. But that all seems to be in the past now, as the Beelzebubbas sit atop the league power rankings after scoring 387 points over the first two weeks.
“I’m humbled by this team accomplishment,” Biggs said. “As we all know, a coach is only as good as his players and the performance-enhancing substances they take.” With misty eyes, he added, “This one was for Jorge.”
The Beelzebubbas topped the record of 231 points set last season in week 10 by the East Nashville Black Dogs in their victory over the Alamo Scouts. With their record-setting performance, the 'Bubbas became only the second team to score 200 or more points. The Black Dogs have done it three times.
The team single-game scoring mark was not the only record to fall in week two. West Nashville QB Carson Palmer also set a new individual single-game scoring record with 71 points in the team’s smacking of the Daddies. Palmer’s total eclipsed the previous mark of 68 points set by then Cambridge Animals QB Drew Brees in week 14 of 2006.
One other score of note: The Animals became the seventh franchise to score 190 or more points with their 192.5 - 182.5 upset of the Fidalgo Island Sea Hogs, leaving the Midtown Mojo as the only franchise to have never scored at least 190 points.
