What a Dummy Looks Like: Plaxico Turns Himself In
Posted by Bossip Staff
After “supposedly” shooting himself in the leg at a NYC club Friday night, NY Giants star receiver Plaxico Burress has turned himself in:
NEW YORK (AP) — Plaxico Burress arrived at a police station early Monday morning, where he was expected to be charged after accidentally shooting himself in the right thigh.The New York Giants star wide receiver arrived in a black Cadillac Escalade wearing jeans and a black coat. Burress, who was not visibly limping, did not speak to the media and walked directly into the precinct.
Burress’ lawyer, Benjamin Brafman, wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press on Sunday that he was advised the player planned to plead not guilty to criminal possession of a weapon. “I do not expect that Mr. Burress will make a statement,” Brafman wrote. He met with Burress for about an hour Sunday at the player’s home in New Jersey.
“I would ask that his fans, the Giants and the media withhold judgment in this matter until all of the facts have been disclosed,” Brafman wrote to the AP.
Brafman is a well-known criminal lawyer who has defended mobsters and other high-profile figures, including hip-hop impresario Sean “Diddy” Combs on a bribery and gun possession charge in 2001.
Burress shot himself at a Manhattan nightclub Friday night and was released from a hospital early Saturday, the Giants said.
Someone needed to tell the dummy that he shouldn’t be going to a club where he thinks he needs to carry some live heat. You’re not a thug, matter of fact, Fu*k a Thug.
When you come and make it, keep it simple, fall back, you’re extremely fortunate. The media is always waiting in the cut to hang your Black ass.

what a dumb *****
He could’ve gotten away with it……SMH
Silly…what you do is, go to the nearest ligquor store, pour a forty on the wound, and wrap it up…no one would ever have to know…
I think i will withhold judgment in this matter until all of the facts have been disclosed
Bossip, you need to get this site together!
What a mess…why do these sports figures and stars continue to get themselves in trouble??? Its crazy!
WHO CARES BOSSIP! WE’VE WAITED ALL WEEKEND FOR YOU TO POST SOME NEW MATERIAL.. AND YOU GUYS POST THIS *****…

Umm, Bossip you decided to come to work today huh…WHAT is wrong with your servers and the Gravatars..were you hacked or something. I was just about through with you.
Im *****uming it may have been kinda hard for a PRO Football player with one of the BEST or barely arguable BEST team in the NFL DURING the HEAT of the football season to hide a gunshot wound in your LEG from your coach and teammates. Even if he aint go to the hospital, he would have had to let his Boss, Coach or Somebody know his dumb azz done shot himmself…IDIOT! just like his daym name! He couldnt have gotten away with nothing.
Too bad he couldn’t buy some common sense with all that money
BOSSIP WHERE THE ***** IS MY GRAVATAR, I DONT TAKE TIME OUT MY BUSY WORK DAY TO COME ON HERE FOR THIS HALF AZZ BULLSHYT. IF IM GONNA WASTE TIME I WANT MY MONIES WORTH!

LOL Mock….Bossip need to get its mind right after the hiatus they been on.
test
LMAO RE…..well he need you on his team of advisors cause now he’s facing that felony…even though they just need to gone head and dismiss it. If he is any type of smart his gun was registered and hopefully he will get a slap on the wrist for carrying it.
LOL RE im wondering the same think…Plexico…daym.
Who is this person?
LOL. I think that “Million Dollar Contracts” effect the brain patterns of black athletes. I propose a new scientific study to examine…
He done shot himself right out the league, poor thang.
However his backup is get ready, it’s your time to shine baby
@Purpple
Plaxico…does this conjure up thoughts of run down gas station with the cheapest gas prices around? Possibly in states like Texas?
Why didn’t this idiot just have a fall guy to hold his gun, drugs, etc.? That way if anything happens, the fall guy goes to jail and the one with the money stays outta jail! Just ask Shine! Puffy is paying dude to take the rap that J-ho should have!
On a lighter noet, What’s good Purpple?
Man, I just don’t care

No study is required, man. The amount of stupidity is exponentially proportional to how much money they get paid! Just ask anybody on the 1990s Dallas Cowboys offensive line!

LMAO RE im thinking of friggin Plexigl*****…I knew that name came from some type of plastic product and a gas station.
@Purpple
LOL…
Dumb*****. First off, this dude was already on a short leash with his team aka his damn job. Why would he be at a club with a gun? Couldnt have been anywhere he needed to be. I say that because where was security when it came time to search this dude? And if they let him in with a burner, they let anyone with in with burners? They got my man Vick for killing HIS dogs….get this clown too because someone else could have gotten hurt
Is it just me, or does this Plaxico person resembles Obama with the whole shooting himself in the leg, granted, Obama’s shooting himself in a metaphorically way with his Affirmative Action-like choices for that mockery of a security team he *****embled.
2012 can’t get here soon enough for me. Sarah Palin is looking better by the minute.
The dumb***** comparing Obama to Plaxico is sick. And then you insult anyone with a brain’s intelligence by mentioning Caribou Barbie. She is not fit to hold office.
Is this a new Bossip format or is my computer trippin’? Where are all the gravies?
Plaxico is an embarr*****ement to this city. SMH.
What a DOUBLE DUMB*****!!
Some black males just never learn.. They can have the world at their feet and will STILL be doing the same dumb ***** they always do!!!

@paulwhiskey06
He was carrying a gun because these high profile athletes be getting threatened and robbed ALL OF THE TIME!!! We just don’t hear about it because they don’t file police reports out of embarr*****ment…
It’s sad Homie
When they go to the club, grimey a$$ ni@@as be in the cut plotting and planning to rob these dudes…
Club owners let these big name dudes & celebrities in with all types of stuff… They even let them smoke weed in some spots – right IN FRONT OF on and off duty police officers!!!
How do I know, I worked in the enterntainment industry and have friends who play professional sports and so I’ve seen some very interesting & crazy a$$ things with my own eyes…
One time I was out with my man (*high profile athlete) and we had to leave a club one time ’cause a friend of ours who just got out of prison told us about a dude (*who he served time with) was over in the corner and had called the “stick up boys” to come over to the spot to rob him when he left…
These low life career criminals be doing all types of sh#t… From coming up with birdbrain schemes plotting to KIDNAP these high profile atheletes triflin’ baby mommas and precious little innocent seeds to hold them for ransom = FOR REAL, NO BULLSH#T – I ain’t making this up!!!
Remember he just signed a 5 year contract extension and got something like 13 Million up front…
Point is, when news like this hits the media (*about how much money these people get)- A LOT OF BROKE A$$ NI@@AS be plotting to get their hands on these high profile individuals money and it’s NOT JUST the groupie broads poking holes in condoms…
@ Slide
Then don’t go to the clubs if u know that. Isnt this man married w/ a kid. Ive been to the LQ thats not place for a ‘family’ man.
No. the problem is too many BLACK athletes and rappers are too concern about high profiling and showing off what they can afford. Come to spots where the majority of people are broke or just trying to make it and they wanna show off their million dollar *****es. They should get rob. keep that ***** in your mansion.
Stay your ***** home and find other meaningful things to do w/ your time.
I’m sorry but I dont feel sorry for these people.
love your new look Bossip keep it like that!!!!
@huss
Fam, I’m not defending him AT ALL!!!
‘Cause obviously his dumb a$$ ain’t know how to handle the joint (his gun) and that’s how innocent peoples lives get lost, maimed and/or ruined because of people on that ***** Cheney sh#t…
I was just giving an explanation as to why he had the gun on him, that’s all = to defend himself if someone tried to rob him…
lol, he’s rather dumb for this one. I’m a gun owner and licensed concealed carrier, matter of fact I carried one when I……..whatever, point is, if I had THAT much money and couldn’t legally carry a gun, I wouldn’t. I’d just hire my cousins to walk around with me with their guns. Now if you’re talking about having them stashed around the house and my cars, thats another story.
He is a fool. he had a license for the weapon in Fla. not New York. If he felt that he was not going to be safe at this nightclub he should of stayed home. Partying is not worth it.
@ Slide
I hear you. I know you wasn’t trying to defend him or your friends.
But at some point the question needs to be asked.
Why do black athletes & rappers congregate @ poor/working cl***** clubs?
Why is it so important to go to these establishments jeweled out?
@ Opie
I agree w/ your comment about Barack’s cabinet.
He prove today that he’s a typical lying ***** politician!
What in the world would possess him to put Hillary Clinton
and 1/2 of her husband’s former staff on his team,
Didn’t this NEGROE cry CHANGE?!?! There’s so many former
Clinton –and even Bush– former staff members on his committee
Is anyone sure Hillary Clinton didn’t win?!
This is sooooo suspect and I seriously have NO faith in Barack.
He’s a puppet and he lied!
This man said CHANGE.. SHOULDNT THAT MEAN NEW PEOPLE IN THE HOUSE?
*****in genius
Keep your head up Plax…..we’re praying for you!
I personally do not feel sorry for him. Why would u bring a gun in a club, why isn’t your gun registered and last, why can’t you just hire security you have a 35 million dollar contract.He deserves everything he gets because that gun could have dropped and shot some one else. Then what?
I don’t understand athletes at all. With all that money, you can buy a hobby! *****!!! Plax set Black folks another 5 steps back. Damn…
[...] to Lives*****, your boy, Plaxico, had all kind of weaponry at his house. It seems as if the thug-life is deeply embedded in his [...]
