Fourth down and four chords to go

It was one week ago today that Connersvine released their eponymous debut CD on INO Records. The duo, which consists of band mates Chris Wilson and Hunter Smith, have received some decent reviews on their album since its release 7 days ago.
I’ve seen their name pop up online a few times in the past few days. There was this press release (which is a bit old actually) from when INO signed them to a record deal. More recently, CMCentral.com posted an interview with them.
Additionally, friend of Prayers for Blowouts, the uber-talented Andy Osenga (you can download his latest EP for free, and buy his amazing solo album as well), even blogged last week about playing guitar for them for their CD release show in Indianapolis.
If you’re wondering what this has to do with sports, Hunter Smith also happens to be the punter for the Indianapolis Colts.
Now before you make the “no wonder he has time to play music, he punts for THE COLTS” joke, let us remind you that there are jobs in sports that require less work than Indianapolis Colts punter. They include, but are not limited to, the following:
- punter for the New England Patriots
- place kicker for the Miami Dolphins
- person who hands out Good Neighbor Awards for the Cincinnati Bengals
- the Pittsburgh Pirates closer
- Kobe Bryant’s teammates
- snow removal coordinator for the Florida Marlins
- person in charge of recording wins for the St. Louis Rams
If you can think of any others, share them in the comments. And if you’re into acoustic-driven worshipful music, you might want to check out Connersvine.
