GARCIA SUFFERS LEG INJURY
Posted by Michael David Smith on July 31, 2008, 10:45 a.m. EDT

Buccaneers quarterback Jeff Garcia was carted off the practice field today with an apparent leg injury.

WDAE has a photo showing Garcia, still wearing his helmet and shoulder pads, sitting next to a Bucs trainer in a golf cart.

Rick Stroud of the St. Petersburg Times reports that Garcia was injured during a non-contact drill. (We’re glad for the “non-contact” clarification. If Bucs coach Jon Gruden were putting Garcia through contact drills, he might as well hang a “Welcome Brett Favre” banner at Bucs camp.)

Per Stroud, Garcia felt discomfort in his right leg as he was rolling out and throwing, and he was seen limping toward the locker room.

Defensive tackle Jovan Haye, who started all 16 games for the Bucs last year, left practice with an apparent groin injury.

I'm feeling ashamed, my first reaction was "SWEET, now we can get rid of him!" even though Garcia seems like a stand up guy.

Still, if Brett's papers are in, maybe we can just divert his plane to Tampa Bay?

Nevertheless, get well soon Jeff.

This reaks (sp?) of conspiracy. Bucs have been interested and listed as a trade destination. We're getting short at DT and could always use another body.

Methinks the National Enquirer will post a trade where the Bucs get Favre and we get a faking Haye and a conditional draft choice.

This is better than any daytime soap opera, that's for sure.

Reportedly, Brett has refused a trade to Tampa Bay--which makes no sense unless he wants to go to Minnesota. Tampa Bay would be an ideal fit for him.

Or how about the report that Dallas is looking to get Simms? Appears a QB would be needed in Tampa... :roll:

That makes no sense.

When your "ears are ringing", according to an old wive's tale, it means that someone, somewhere is talking about you. I'd venture to say that someone, somewhere is talking about TT.

GARCIA HAS CALF STRAIN
Posted by Mike Florio on July 31, 2008, 5:27 p.m.

According to our friends at Pewter Report, the leg injury suffered during practice on Thursday by Buccaneers quarterback Jeff Garcia was a strained calf muscle.

“Jeff Garcia strained his calf,” coach Jon Gruden said. “We don’t believe it is serious.”

The Green Bay Packers likely wished it were serious, since it might have prompted the Bucs to offer a significant draft pick to the Pack and a pile of money to you-know-who.

Elsewhere in Bucs land, defensive tackle Jovan Haye has a pulled groin (heh-heh, heh), and will undergo an MRI.

That's nice for the Bucs but a down right shame for us.
