Jeff Garcia: "I know i'm the starting quarterback here"

Jeff Garcia might be getting a little insecure about his status with
the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With myriad of rumors swirling about Brett
Favre playing in Tampa, Garcia has a good reason to be insecure.
Afterall Garcia has been no stranger to boxing up his life and moving
to a new city. Garcia has played for 5 different teams in each of the
past 5 season, starting with San Francisco in 2003, then off to
Cleveland, Detroit, Philadelphia in 2006, and finally with Tampa in
2007.
Jon Gruden and the Bucs have had a history of stockpiling QB's due to
the fact that they have not been able to find their own Favre since the
days of .....wait for it.........Brad Johnson.
"He loves quarterbacks, but he likes to just date. He doesn't like to marry." Garcia said today.
Gruden who should be protecting the current property and leader of his team had this to say:
"I worry about our football team. I really just prefer keeping this
conversation to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers...Jeff Garcia is our starting
quarterback. We're in the fourth day of training camp, and we want to
play a lot better football than we did last season.".
It's not like Garcia had a rough season. In fact, you might not be
aware of this but he led the team to win the division and was voted
into the Pro Bowl last year. This 38 year old QB had a stellar season,
all things being considered. However, it seems he is just another
victim to the legendary all encompassing Favre shadow.
If (Favre) comes in, as much as the accolades are huge on that side,
I'm the starting quarterback, and it's going to be a battle," Garcia
said.
"That's just my attitude. I'm the starter here. I'm going to choke it to death until somebody pulls my grip off of it."
Simmaaaahhhh down now Jeff, simmmmahhhhhhhh down. We're in the middle
of the sports news abyss right now. We just needed a little something
to talk about.
