Lose Donovan McNabb for the season. Lose enough games to be in danger of posting a losing season. Bring in Jeff Garcia out of absolute desperation.

Not long after one online loudmouth suggested... 115694@http://www.ajc.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/ajc/watch/ Falcons 2006-12-02T15:00:00-05:00 http://www.ajc.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/ajc/watch/entries/2006/11/30/football_awaken.html?cxntfid=blogs_the_enemy_watch Surely this is an hallucination. Wake Forest could have the best football team in the ACC and the worst basketball outfit at the same time. What are they smoking in Winston-Salem besides Winstons and Salems these days?

That time has come.
