A Wake Before The Funeral

Posted by Scipio Tex on March 14th, 2010 under Basketball

What happens when a stoppable force meets a movable object? We'll find out on March 18th. Meet Wake Forest. This game will be watching drunks trying to brawl. Neither belligerent will land a punch, and it will be viewed by both fanbases with equal measures of horror, embarassment, and amusement.
