Daily FaF Smear (3/6/09)

The one where Septimus needs “justifiable employment.”

I have one word for the above video: splendiforous.  A rejection back into the face of Fernandez and then checking the coif.  The only finishing move better than that is the Mutumbo Finger Wag.  (Why does Dikembe sound like a post-pubescent Yoda to me?  Block you, I will.  Mine, this house is.)  Good to see him back on the bench supporting Yao, if only for pleading to officials in an unintelligible accent on Yao’s behalf.

Back to Chris Anderson – The Birdman, Birdzilla, or The Raging Rooster… your choice – awesome.  Let’s push a little more promotion.  Because fan tribute youtube videos are the best, here’s Birdzilla’s.

Here are you non-existent Houston sports updates:

Texans:  At least Houston doesn’t show up on Bodog’s odds for a home for Terrell Owens.  Schaub would probably faint only to throw himself down the stairs when he came to if he got that news.  The Texans did host another free agent from the Cowboys yesterday, Kevin Burnett.  He’s coming off a career best of 2 sacks…  Yeah.

Rockets:  Host Phoenix at home.  That is all.  I don’t want to jinx the team, although, everytime I post something even remotely negative they seem to win… Scola is UGLY!!

Astros:  Still playing meaningless games against countries.  How is this fair?

Cougars:  The campus shut down yesterday because of all the athletic team losses on Wednesday.

UTSA:  BONUS!!  Because I was literally 20 seconds too late bringing up this news item last night, Larry Coker will be the coach of the as of yet non-existent UTSA football team.  The Roadrunners (yes, that’s their mascot) are very excited to have them on board.  Coker is already looking forward to the rivalry match-up (yes, I’m about to go there) against the University of New Mexico Albuquerque Wile E. Coyotes… boooooo!

I’ll be over here hanging my head in shame if anyone needs me.
