plaxico burress

According to Livesteez, regardless of how fast his flesh wounded leg heals, the Giants do not want Plaxico Burress, the trouble maker, back this yr…and probably for good.

Football season is over for NFL star Plaxico Burress. The New York Giants on Tuesday suspended the wide receiver for the rest of the regular season, and placed him on the reserve non-football injury list for conduct detrimental to the team, which means he won’t be back for the playoffs, either. The decision comes one day after Burress was charged with two counts of illegal weapons possession, stemming from an incident early Saturday morning in which he accidentally shot himself in the right thigh at a Manhattan nightclub. Meanwhile, the Giants expect Antonio Pierce to play in Sunday’s game against Philadelphia while the team gathers information about whether the linebacker tried to cover up the shooting. He might face potential charges and a possible suspension if he did, reports Eurweb.com.

Following the shooting, police say Pierce drove Burress to the hospital and returned to New Jersey with Burress’ gun in the glove compartment of his black Cadillac Escalade. Investigators impounded Pierce’s Cadillac Escalade and are searching it for any blood or gun residue. Coughlin said Wednesday that he used two words in discussing the Burress situation with the team — disappointment and sadness.”That sums it all up,” Coughlin said. “I had a conversation with Plaxico. He was very humble. He was remorseful. Obviously that doesn’t change anything. But you have to understand that he is part of our team and our concern is with he and his family’s well being, and the ability of him to get through this circumstance and be healthy again.” The Giants’ decision to suspend Burress came down after team physician, Dr. Scott Rodeo, examined him and found that the gunshot wound would sideline the 31-year-old player for 4-to-6 weeks.

This half-way thug has been a thorn in the team’s side for a minute, despite his success on the field. He is a prime example of what NOT to do once you get to where you want to be. SMH

  • purpple

    My ONLY beef with Plexico is he had an UNREGISTERED gun and he was not mature enough to sit his azz down and carry it responsibly…no he wanna be on the floor shakin his azz….tsk.

  • shavondenise

    Plax is the dumbest man in America next to OJ!! He just beat out Pacman Jones. Ok if you REALLY fear your safety why not get a bodyguard and/or, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU IN THE CLUB????

  • purpple

    @BE

    yeah the cops are real tricky for most because they don’t know their rights which is why they dont stand their ground.

    If it came down to me testifying against him and doing minor time if that then they wouldve had to charge me. I could think of a few other things he could have possibly done.

    Better two less athletes making millions then one ;)

  • MissBlaze43

    When this story first broke, there was ALL kind of excuses about why this man SHOULD NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.

    Let me tell you something: If you get caught carrying a loaded, unlicensed guy – that ass is going to jail.

    @ Purp

    Plax was done regardless of Pierce’s testimony. Apparently he called the Giants medical staff and told them the whole story before he even went to the hospital. They told him to go to a certain hospital that they work out of but he went to another one trying to give them an alias. Some doctor there got suspended for not calling the cops to report a gunshot wound (state law). Anyway, this idiot left a paper trail a mile long. They got him with or without Pierce so for the sake of his multi-million dollar contract (and his family) he minus well testify. You gotta be careful playing professional football with your actions. Mess up and your NFL money will stand for Not For Long……that money is NOT guaranteed.

  • MissBlaze43

    @ Purple

    And that’s it in a nutshell. They want to round-up as many men OF COLOR as they possibly can. From the the fools on the corner with all their stupidity to the Ball Player that’s making millions of dollars a year.

    Oh well, he’ll have plenty of time to see the error of his ways now that he’s done for the season.

    SMDH

  • purpple

    Right right right Ill Truth(whus up) they messed up when they called the coach and went to the hospital so both of them have to go along with show to try and salvage some aspect of their millions but goes to show how much they have to get with the program, money over testifying against teammates and possibly friends..i guess most would choose the money huh, thats phucked up. I dont feel sorry for Plexico because he was dumb but testifying against him is still some bullshyt.

  • Allison Mae

    Lol @ this fool!

  • Candid Canuck

    We all know he’ll be in Dallas

  • BACKYARD

    HE’S SO CUTE AND SO DAMN DUMB AT THE SAME TIME.

  • baeyaki

    I know plax and felt sorry for him for a hot minute. Then I went back to my regular joe life and realized that he ain’t no different from the rest of us. There is no excuse for his situation given that
    a) He has a good dose of common sense
    b) his damn wife has a law degree

    Step ya game up plax. This is ridiculous!

  • Raquel26

    Can I ask a quesion??

    Why when this n_cca has all this money, not get the gun registered in his name? If he did, then the most he would probably have to do is pay a fine for even bringing it in a club.

    See? These dumba** n_ccas have no home training. They’re young….come out the woodworks making 25 million PLUS endorsements, etc. And they cant even learn to act responsible. I always believed the players are overrated and over-paid. Shiiid, my dayum dog can run the ball into the end zone, and do a shifty move on you and break them ankles. Where’s his check? lol

    But for real…….they should start treating this like a real job (which it is).

    (Please answer in your head and apply the answers to what should happen to anyone else in this industry.

    1) What happens when you are late mutiple times at your job. Assuming all the write-ups have occurred and you are on your last leg? Right.

    2) What would happen if you dont show up for work? No call, no show? (i.e Allen I didnt want to show up for practice).

    3) What would happen if you lied about something at work? Or stole something and got caught, or even made a racial commment that someone else over heard? Right.

    My answers for all 3 are: fired.

    There are young college atheles RIGHT NOW waiting for that draft. They can always be replaced. Just like yours and my position at our jobs.

  • baeyaki

    Je$$i..
    Save that no snitching shi* for somebody else. It’s called ACCOUNTABILITY.

    Don’t start none won’t be none.. What the hell ever happened to home training? GEESH

  • Someone who just don’t care

    What a dumb-dumb chicken little! Stupidity gets you nowhere but looking like he looking in this picture!

  • bria

    I think it is absolutely stupid to charge this man. He shot himself. I could see community service or something like that. But it seems like it is just to easy for them to want to lock up black men. He made a stupid decision but I don’t think he should go to jail for being an idiot.

  • deesac

    NY gun laws only thing he will be catching is a bad day

  • Crystal

    man,dis dude is stupid as hell. im orginally from pittsburgh,pa where he used to play for the steelers a while back and he should’ve stayed his ass here! atleast in the burgh gun laws arent as strict as they are up nyc. wow! his career is a wrap all cuz of him not using COMMON SENSE!!! y go to a club w/o security or at least a small entourage, let them hold the burner for you and THEN if something pops off, let them go at it. just pay their bail and attorney fees if needed and then ur not charged with sh*t except u being at the wrong place at the wrong time which can happen too anybody.plus i heard a while back up pittsburgh that his sister got robbed at gun point for her jewels and sh*t so i can where he might of been shook about getting robbed but he should’ve used common sense 1st.

  • K DOGG

    I don’t care what anybody says. I’m not going to jail for lying in front of a grand jury, and risk my wife and kids food on their table, cuz your dumb tail want to do something utterly stupid and then get me involved because I’m in the wrong place at the wrong time. sorry but do your time.

  • its me again

    Apparently some of you ave no clue how the laws of New York work. Based on your idiotic comments, I’ll chalk it up to drug or alcohol abuse Plaxico (the name isn’t even up for discussion…can you say migraine)s going to do time, period. No ifs, ands or buts about it get caught with an unregistered hand gun in the state of New York..MANDATORY THREE YEARS. For the love of God and Country I wish there was a mandatory higher learning sentence for some of you morons. And if you’ve taken the slightest bit of offense to this, good, because I’m talking about you.
