Jan. 29th Houston Sports FaF Smear (a Retrospective)

Song of the Day: Among the Oak and Ash – “Bigmouth Strikes Again” We pretty much suck at following up with some of the big ideas that we have at Fourth and Fifty. That being said, we absolutely suck at trying to brag about our accomplishments. Yes, I know what you’re thinking. We brag all [...]

Song of the Day – Fruit Bats – “The Ruminant Band” My fellow FaFtonians, I stand in here today to tell you that the state of Fourth and Fifty is STRONG. We have more swagger than ever. There are more than five people that read this site daily. Three and a half people write for [...]

SOTD -Tenacious D “Double Team” Well, starting last night I started paying attention to college basketball, so I can repeat as FaF champion in the March Madness bracket competition. So on my first night of college hoops I simply had to check out John Wall to see if he was worth the hype, but instead [...]

Jan 26 Houston Sports FaF Smear

Song of the Day: Like anyone besides Pipez and Rex cares. Hey, look at how hip and unaffected I am – I care about crappy bands that will never make it (because they suck)! You know who doesn’t suck? Not Rex. Brett Fav-re!  Brett Fav-re!  Brett Fav-re!  What a few weeks. I actually stopped hating [...]

SOTD – “Smile Like You Mean It” David Gray (Killers cover) COLTS VS SAINTS! Manning Face Vs Breesus! Two weeks until football season as we know it is over. This year we get the bonus of watching the pro-bowl before the Superbowl, so even less famous players can play in it. Who wants to watch [...]

SOTD – Spoon “Written in Reverse” I’m making my triumphant return to re-reporting the news that everyone else has already heard about. But don’t you worry, you are getting a better more qualified Pipez, as I am now a certified radiation worker. I’m just like Homer Simpson! Except I work in research not a power [...]

The Most Awesomest Awards Ever…

… and be “awesomest” I actually mean “illegitimatest” Let’s clear up a little bit of auxiliary news. From El Rat (JBJ’s one-time manager) came this little nugget… Case Keenum will be honored at the UCF vs. UH Basketball game tonight at Hofheinz. If you remember correctly, there was a time when all the writers for [...]

1/18, 1/19, and 1/20 Houston Sports FaF Smears

Songs of the Days: Lonely Island – “Like a Boss” Awwwww, did you guys miss us? Did you think that we left you under the cover of night like the Colts from Baltimore? Trust me, we considered it. We’re coming up on our Anniversary for Fourth and Fifty and none of us have seen the [...]

Song of the Day: The Raconteurs – “Carolina Drama“ Consider this your open forum Friday. You guys tend to hijack the masterful posts that I write anyway, unappreciative mofos. So, here it is… Straight from the horse’s mouth (if you consider a sports radio host a horse): Yeah. That just happened. Discuss.

Song of the Day: The Kooks – “Always Where I Need to Be” Another spot opens in the college head coaching ranks and, guess who’s name gets thrown in the ring? Our very own Kevin Sumlin. That wasn’t tough to guess, was it? With Lane Kiffin’s awesome throwing University of Tennessee to the wolves, the [...]
