Jeff Garcia 'Couldn't Be Happier' With Bucs, Carmella DeCesare

Things are changing in the life of Jeff Garcia. He has a new team, Tampa Bay, and a new bride, Carmella DeCesare. And as you might expect, he's quite happy with both.
"I couldn't be happier right now," Garcia said last week in a telephone interview from Tampa, Fla. "I felt what took place in Philadelphia put me back on the map and let people know that I still have the qualities to play at a high level.

"Then to get married, it's just a completion of me, who I am as a person, in allowing me to take that next step in my life to having a family and sharing my life with my beautiful wife."

That beautiful wife is the 2004 Playboy Playmate of the Year, so I think he'll continue to be happy in that respect. But I have my doubts about how things are going to turn out for Garcia on the field this year. Yes, he played very well in Philadelphia last year. But there's a reason the 49ers, Browns and Lions all decided to move on without him. He's 37 years old, doesn't move like he used to, and doesn't have a strong arm. He'd better enjoy his marriage, because he isn't going to enjoy the 2007 NFL season.
