Houston Sports FaF Smear (7/27/10)

SOTD –  “Homecoming” The Teenagers Well, Rice decided to make UH their homecoming game, isn’t that special. I guess they felt that they needed more motivation to play in the game this year besides the bayou bucket, and their 73-14 embarrassment last year. I mean they put up less effort than Northwestern St. a FCS [...]

SOTD – “Doin Time” Sublime It’s the doldrums of summer. Luckily this year we had the World Cup for the beginning of the summer. Now it’s all baseball all the time. Even ESPN is bored with baseball and had a front page picture of cycling, or at least that’s what I think it was since [...]

SOTD – “Mr. Pitiful” Matt Costa First of all, out of respect to Cavs owner Dan Gilbert, the rest of this post will be written in comic sans. “The Decision” has been made, and unfortunately we were all witnesses last night. I have no dog in this fight since my 2 teams (Spurs and Rockets) were [...]

SOTD – “Sippin on Some Syrup” Three Six Mafia Apparently, JaMarcus Russell needs to slow his roll, because the life of an NFL flame out is too fast. I guess that’s why he was busted for having that sizzurp, or purple drank if you will, this weekend. To be honest, I’m going to give JaMarcus [...]

SOTD – “You Don’t Know Me” Ben Folds (video by Tim and Eric) Layla Kiffin was hired yesterday to be the first lady of football at USC, while her husband does his best to continue the tradition of NCAA violations and publicity stunts at USC. I mean I guess I can see the appeal that [...]

Song of the Day: New Young Pony Club – “Ice Cream” I will revel – REVEL I SAY – in all of this. Yes, it’s a sick obsession. It’s a horrible vice. Never, since cigarettes came into my life, has there been something that’s been so detrimental to living viceless life as this. The video [...]

Sayonara, Cecil

After a little more than three years, the Astros have ended their relationship with Cooper. The manager was fired today and will leave the club with a winning record (!) of 171-170. Which, when all is said and done is way better than my usual of a little more than three months and an average [...]

The Astros Enigma

I don’t often pretend to know something about the Astros. Well, I do, but I still act like I don’t. But even I notice that there’s a little problem going on right now. The Astros beat the Nats 5-0 yesterday to finish at .500 going into the All-Star Break. Herein lies the problem. The Astros [...]

Daily FAF Smear June 13th

The one where we “Raviele” in our greatness…. The NHL crowned its champion last night, with the Pittsburgh Penguins winning their 3rd Stanley Cup. The Penguins knocked off the Red Wings 2-1 last night in game 7. It went down to the wire, with Penguins goalie Fleury making a monster save with his chest in [...]

June 8th Houston Sports FaF Smear (Every Damn Day)

The One Where We Blog EVERY DAMN DAY. Poor Rex almost had a nervous breakdown yesterday, but don’t listen to him. He’s our fearless overbearing micromanaging leader, but sometimes even the strong self-righteous stumble and fall. But no one’s going on no kind of a strike or break or sabbatical or pilgrimage. Because everyday we hustlin [...]
