Wake Forest Places School Record Nine On All-ACC Team
The All-ACC team is out, and your 10-2 Demon Deacons have nine of their own included. First-teamers are Vallos, Justice, Abbate, Gattis, and Swank; Skinner made the second-team; Tucker, Ghee, and Swank (this time as a punter) were honorable mentions.
News from the Wake boards: a senior studying abroad in Austria made a joking request for $800 so he could buy a ticket to Jacksonville to see his Deacs play in the ACC Championship. A few posters replied with "hey, I'll thrown in 10 bucks" and within a day, all the money was raised.
Also, I'm a wee nervous about Jay Cutler being the Bronco's starting QB. Even though he played very well in preseason, even though I wholeheartedly endorsed Shanahan drafting him, this still makes me nervous. In 2005, Wake Forest (you know, back when we sucked) held Cutler in check to the tune of 276 passing yards, 1 touchdown and 1 interception. But hey, maybe Cutler will play great and I can say "See? Even when Wake was down, we were better than some NFL teams."
More NFL/Wake news: old salt and Wake alum Ricky Proehl has signed with the Colts. Watch your back, Marvin.

It's bad to have JD Drew in the same lineup b/c then he's on your team. I'm just sorta anti-Drew. He'll spend half the season on the DL.
Now that Ricky has signed he won't do the Rams pre-game any more... Darn.
I think I should post on the message boards that I'm a poor grad student in far-off St. Louis who wants to go to the Orange Bowl. You think I could scrape together a couple grand?
