Off topic but has anyone ever read Garcia's story? Could be a movie.
"Garcia is the third of seven children born to Bob and Linda (née Elder) Garcia. His father is a former athletic director and football coach at Gavilan College in his hometown of Gilroy, California. A pair of twin girls died before Garcia's birth. His younger brother Jason drowned on a family camping trip in 1977 when Garcia was seven, and fourteen months later his younger sister Kimberly died after falling out of a truck. His two surviving sisters, Jene and Melissa, were born after the deaths of Jason and Kimberly. Garcia has said that much of his drive stems from trying to make his parents happy after the deaths of his siblings."
From what his parents and he went through to CFL to NFL to UFL back to NFL... marrying a playboy playmate...the dui with us... Guy has quite a story

Reid and Patton are the only ones that I really want to get permanent, instantly recognizable numbers that they can make their trademark...

Ventrone is 41 for now so would have to buy it from him unless he gets cut. I like 41 better than 35 though. I don't know Patton kind of looks like a teens # wr.

I think Reid goes for 28. Dixon to 35. Baldwin sticks with 84. Harper to 86.

I agree 100%, Patton would look so good in #84.

we've never really had a FB wear 41 iirc...last player on offense i remember waering that was terry kirby in the 90s...before that DB toi cook wore it for a couple seasons...since then no-names have worn it & its still a relatively low-profile jersey # begging for a good player to claim it and give it some limelight
