It may be incredibly short-sighted, with the BCS, current conference alignment and entire NCAAF landscape seemingly destined to resemble Cormac McCarthy’s The Road in the not too distant future, but I think BSU fans have to root for an all-out implosion of the Big 12. Like a tomato can actually trying to earn his [...]

Bringing the World Cup home.
Tuesday, 1 June 2010
We don’t intend the title to insinuate we believe that the USA will be bringing the actual World Cup home…we hope that is the case, of course. Nor do we reference our recent bid to bring the World Cup tournament back to American soil in 2022. The title refers to an entertaining and wildly educational [...]
New Jersey Does Suck. Sorry.
Thursday, 27 May 2010
I’m not even sure it took The Jersey Shore to confirm this sentiment…that was just the proverbial last nail. Overkill, even. With an admittedly morbid fascination, we’ve sort of followed this story about a NJ man who purposely puked on Philly fans a few weeks ago. It is equal parts amazing, disgusting, reprehensible, impressive and [...]
What’s in a name, my Precious?
Thursday, 20 May 2010
You’d like to think one has to achieve something, anything, at the highest level to be given a nickname. That, or something equally dubious. “Wilt the Stilt” has done both. Evidently, as this faily comprehensive list of NBA nicknames points out, you don’t often have to do much.
We say “fairly comprehensive” because though it has [...]
Craig Sager’s Top 10 Worst Suits
Tuesday, 18 May 2010
Craig Sager never ceases to amaze the staff here at 4th & Forever. We were watching the Suns vs. Lakers (Fuck Kobe) last night, and our jaws dropped when we peeped his black and white plaid blazer with a ruffled pocket square and decided today would be dedicated to Craig Sager image searchers. Please enjoy [...]
LT vs. Boggs vs. Andre vs. Beer
Sunday, 25 April 2010
LT, one of the baddest LBs ever to play the game, drinks a girl’s beer…but at least he drinks a lot of them. Maybe the Silver Bullet is “The One That Won’t Slow You Down”, but we’d wager it would also be “Coors Light, 41 Will Put You On Your Ass.”
Now, we didn’t actually [...]
Melo’s People of Utah
Monday, 19 April 2010
This amazing ad aired in game one of the Nugs – Utah series. I’m not sure which is more amazing, however…the buzz this ad created, or the fact that whoever is now running the Jordan ad campaigns doesn’t have an HQ video readily available online to get all H1N1. Viral video has to be a [...]
Move over Joey Brackets, Alex Hermann is in the house.
Tuesday, 23 March 2010
Somehow, ESPN’s Joe Lunardi, aka Joey Brackets, has created a pseudo-science called “Bracketology” whose logarithms and cryptic formulas are intended to derive not just the NCAA field of 64, but also each team’s seed and where they’ll be shipped. Bracketology is in effect from the preseason straight through the end of Championship Week. Admittedly, though [...]
Shaq-Fu! Gesundheit.
Friday, 5 March 2010
These old school Shaquille pics are awesome. He was so…ShaqSvelte. We just can’t recall why he seemed so much bigger than everyone else even back then. Did the whole league get huge?
Is it awkward that Dwight now wants to be the modern day Superman, and they both established that persona with the Magic?
Which former Magic [...]
Fine (Bernie?) Art.
Wednesday, 3 March 2010
While scouring the world wide web for Syracuse content, 4th & Forever came across Dave “The Sports Painter” Choate and immediately fell in love with his style…his Syracuse-heavy content was pure bonus. We love the Dr. J, the Jonny Flynn vs UCONN pieces shown here, the Jordan and even the Eddie Murray. We could do [...]
