Philly signs Garcia

The Philadelphia Felons today made a move which signals they have very little confidence in backup Kevin Kolb. The 40 year old (married to former Playboy Playmate of the year Carmella Garcia) Jeff Garcia was signed today. It appears that the league is now adopting the injury reports in the manner of the New England Patriots. Loose lips sink ships.

Obviously, Andy Reid is comfortable bringing back Garcia, who went 6-1 in backup duty leading the Eagles to the playoffs two years ago. Garcia, however has some issues with Philly, as he left after the 2006 season when Reid and the front office declined to offer Garcia a contract. Garcia found his way to Tampa (along with his former Playboy Playmate of the year wife) where his career basically went flat.

The final insult to Garcia was the fact the Oakland Raiders named Bruce Gradkowski the #2 quarterback. (Simply look up reviews of that man on this blog) and asked for his release. Now in the ultimate case of irony, it appears Garcia might be under center on October 11th, when the hapless Bucs waltz into Philly on October 11th, and I might just have to be rooting for one of the toughest SOB's for his size to ever play the game.
