I'm thinking you guys may be right about the issue being the throw out bearing. I've changed how I start the car and haven't had a problem. Normally the car is in 1st gear, I push in the clutch and start the car. If I take it out of 1st gear before starting, I don't have the issue. I'm guessing the throw out bearing is binding the clutch is out of adjustment. Either way, it seems to be clutch related not transmission internals.
