Place Your Bets – Football: V

Last week was a historic week for picking winners.  I went a PERFECT 6 for 6 making an overall return on the week of 125%.  Pipez went a stellar 4 for 7 on the week for a return of 66%.  Why throw away money in the stock market when you can make your wildest dreams [...]

October 22 Houston Sports FaF Smear (Rockets Preview)

Red Nation? Funny, I thought we were only pinko socialists… Here is your Halfass 2009-2010 Houston Rockets Season Preview… Last Year: In 2008-2009, the Rockets shocked the world (not really) by reaching the second round of the playoffs despite no T-Mac and bits and pieces of Yao’s foot.  The Rox then took the Lakers to 7 despite [...]

Place Your Bets – Football: IV

I had a second consecutive unimpressive week due to my lack of profit.  The good news is I have still not had a losing week.  This probably has to do with my “cherry picking” style as TRG would call it.  I’m taking 3 under dogs in the NFL this week, Cherry Pick that TRG!  Septimus [...]

Place Your Bets – Chronicles of Gambleria: III

After this week of gambling you should have some – Money to Blow I apologize for my lack of gambling picks the last couple of weeks, not that you noticed I’m sure.  This week there appear to be a good number of bets out there for the taking.  I would have to go back and [...]

October 2nd Houston Sports FaF Smear

Song of the day: Jay-Z – On to the Next One Another weekend of football is upon us.  However, there are a couple other interesting events to take note of.  Austin City Limits Music Fesitval (ACL)  is this weekend.  Septimus and Pipez will be holding hands and singing along to all their favorite love songs.  [...]

FaF Opponent Essentials: UTEP

Each week we’ll dig deep to find the best dirt on the next opponent of the Houston Cougars. If you have any suggestions e-mail them to us (admin@fourthandfifty.com) and we’ll make sure to include them. Generic shit-talk is completely acceptable if not preferable. Four things have become apparent over the past for weeks. 1) Opposing [...]

Coogs Rule Big XII (and maybe NFL???)

After 10 hours of tailgating and 4 hours of football that cris-crossed the border between agony and ecstasy, I have finally recovered enough to write my UH recap. I must also add that this was further postponed by Kevin Kolb starting for the injured McRib for both the Eagles and WWPurpleJD? fantasy team.

Place Your Bets – Chronicles of Gambleria: II

Last week was a good week for betting, at least for 2 out of the 3 of the FaF Staffers.  I clearly dominated, now it’s just a matter of maintaining the  momentum.  Let’s take a look at the stats for Week 2 NCAA and Week 1 NFL:  If you want to take a look at [...]

COOGS WIN!

Kevin Sumlin improved his record to 3-0 against ranked teams after the Coogs toppled the #5 Oklahoma State Cowboys. This game had all the offense you could have ever wanted, but in the end, it was the Cougar D that won the game. The Cougar D forced 2 turnovers late in the 4th quarter, including [...]

Chronicles of Gambleria

Upon further review I decided that betting wasn’t any fun if I didn’t go with my gut, so I placed a few bets based on that special feeling you get by speculating.  It feels a little like gas, but more of the feeling you get when it’s all gone as opposed to the uncomfortable build [...]
