Bucs quarterback Jeff Garcia has been added to the team’s injury report with a finger injury to his throwing hand.
“He’s got a pinky, a sore pinky, I guess,” coach Jon Gruden said in quotes distributed by the team. “Since he’s a quarterback and he does have a jammed pinky or whatever it may be, we put him on the injury list. He’s got a strained pinky [on his right, throwing hand].”
Gruden said that he doesn’t believe the injury will affect Garcia’s ability to throw the ball, but Gruden deferred to Garcia on that point.
The Buccaneers play the Saints in New Orleans on Sunday.

He had a finger problem in Cleveland too. His right middle finger was always protruded (thanks Tiki) when he heard boos.

Oh well pinky that’s too pinky bad for pinky Garcia. I hope pinky he’ll be pinky able to get pinky back on the pinky field soon… pinky.

I think he just had some sort of “wardrobe malfunction” with his pinky ring.

Oh, good grief.
First he looks like ass on a stick in the one preseason game he managed to play in (after bitching all offseason about not getting paid) - and now he’s hurt? AGAIN? Can’t you just tape it to your ringfinger, El Jefe?

“Gruden said that he doesn’t believe the injury will affect Garcia’s ability to throw the ball, but Gruden deferred to Garcia on that point.”
IOW, something like “Go ask the f******g pussy about his f******g pinky. I don’t f******g do the f*****g pinky report. At least Simms had a f*****g spleen go, fer crissakes. F******g pinky. I can’t f*****g believe I’ve gotta go to war with this f*****g Tampon….”
