I do think he only wants to start though...and he should get a look at some point. geez..think T Bay could use him right now?

Around here, it's understood that Garcia wanted to win the starting spot out of camp outright or be set free. I understand and respect that. But then to sign in Philadelphia? That doesn't make any sense. He was number 3 on the depth chart and knew that he was either going to be #4 or released once McNabb got healthy.
Why would he even sign there? Why not stay in shape and get his agent to work the phones a little over the next couple weeks. Now places like Tampa or Carolina look like good fits and I'm sure there will be more (shoot, Vinny Testaverde was getting calls not that long ago).
In the end, Garcia would have been closer to a starting job if he would have stayed in Oakland. I can understand him not wanting to, but going to Philly and now without a home just seems really poorly thought out.
