Going on Dr. Phil was the nail in the coffin for TO's football career.
Possibly one of the worst PR moves I've ever seen...

respectfully disagree. garcia had more guts in his little finger than owens ever had. Owens dropped to many balls and never took responsibility, he threw garcia under the bus for no reason at all, he had no respect for his coaches.Garciacould win games with his legs or is arm. I will say garcia lacked the mental toughness ot being in the shadow of steve and joe but can not doubt his physical toughness

I don't think he is a nobody, but he certainly isn't a puss, which was the insult you lobbed at him. TO, if I remember correctly, said he was gay.
It really doesn't matter if you are a HoFer or a practice squad player, you should treat your fellow players with some respect.

You could break him over your leg but he was double tough and that is why i really took offense at the Puss label.That was uncalled for and just wrong.

I don't blame T.O. for calling Garcia gay. Anyone who has ever heard Garcia talk would have to at least consider it possible. T.O. just came out and said what everone else was too afraid to say. T.O should not have said it and should have had enough respect for his teammate, but f**k it!
Garcia may not have been a puss but he doesn't dress or sound like he gets any puss. I was embarrased to have Garcia prancing around jumping to throw the ball. " Gay QB for SF 49ers" and all the jokes that came along with it.

Seriously? Garcia was a good QB for us, he jumped because he was a small QB, he was a good guy for us. Screw T.O., he caused the s**t in SF, he was a cry baby, also Donahue fault for not giving T.O. a contract, but was a good thing, T.O. would of been the biggest distraction for us during his time.

I'm not saying I liked what T.O. did............ but it's not like he called out a guy that wasn't already suspected to be gay by most. Most people I know and have talked to at least. I was embarresed to have Garcia as the 49er QB. Even more so when he gave an interview sounding like a pole smoker.
