Seriously Plaxico Burress?

In the dumb criminal move of the weekend, star NY Giants baller Plaxico Burress shot himself in the leg at a club this weekend. Apparently the gun, which he owns, fell down his pants leg while partying, and it accidentally fired off, hitting him in the leg. He was taken to the hospital and released hours later as the wounds were not serious. Today, police went to his home to seize the weapon and have charged him with felony weapons possession charges. When will these fools learn? Plaxico grabbed up Diddy's lawyer from that infamous club gun shooting case involving him, J.Lo, and Shyne back in 1999. Oh, and Plaxico is turning himself in tomorrow and pleading Not Guilty. So he's going to show up in court with a bloody bullet wound in his leg looking like 50 Cent and he's going to act like it's not there? Stop it.

This is so sad for Giants

This is so sad for Giants fans and those who loved Plax on the playing field. Besides he has a beautiful wife at home he was smackin up. I guess pay back is a mug. I will be watching Brandon Jacobs instead. DAMN YOU PLAXICO!!!!

[quote comment="311823"]Nothing about this story sounds right at all. If it's an accidental shooting, why hide the gun or nix medical attention? I would buy the "they are targets" argument if every athlete had a story about being shot at or roughed up. You don't hear stories about white players getting jacked and for the most part you don't hear stories about black players getting jacked. How many times has Kobe, Lebron and Reggie Bush been shot at? By the way, Plax is 31.[/quote] Kobe had a rape case. Lebron is an asshole that insinuating a trade to NY while still playing for Cleveland. Isnt Bush still under investigation for accepting money in college? I'm banking that this dude is our OJ 2008...just waiting on the murder scene 10 yrs from now. I understand what you were trying to say but you chose the WRONG examples for that one. LOL

That's ok, Plax. Continue on with your foolishness. The Giants are doing the damn thing w/o you. He did good last season; but every since he got his new contract he has been wilding out. I think this is the last season he will be in a Giants uniform. They don't need him. Let's go, Giants, Let's go!! 11-1!

I'm so mad @ Plax cuz he's one of my favorite players and he's getting in the way of his own talent right now. He just signed a new contract about 6 weeks about for "ump-teen" million dollars and thats when he started trippin! I don't know what's gotten into him but from according to NFL Network, there were other Giants players there including Antonio Pierce who justifiably berated Plax for being in possession of the gun. I wonder what security dude didn't search him and just let him walk in!?!?!?

I do understand why he would

I do understand why he would want to be protected but he obviously isn't trained in weapontry. There was a Jaguars player in the beginning of the season that was shot 13 times while sitting in his truck. He lost his leg and almost died. Dunta Robinson (#23 Houston Texans) was the victim of a home invasion in Sept '08 (if I'm not mistaken, Sept 22 or something), they put the gun to his head, tied him up, and robbed his home...in a so-called secure neighborhood. Today is the 1 year anniversary of the death of Sean Taylor (Washington Redskins). He was shot during a home invasion @ his home. Darrent Williams was murdered last year on New Years Day. And Javon Walker was found by Vegas PD this past summer unconscious outside of a casino after being robbed and beaten. They need security and they have enough money to pay for professional security. If they want their own weapons, at least go to a gun range and learn how to use it properly. This isn't the area where you can afford to take shortcuts!

Actually Natasha- the idiocy

Actually Natasha- the idiocy that is Plaxico shot himself in the leg while removing the bullets from the gun before even entering the club... I guess the genius realized that he had to fess up that he had a gun in his possession when security was searching those entering the club. They took him to a remote location off to the side and that's when he blasted his leg. Can we all say LOOOSER? UGH.. And then his equally brillant teammate (who was with him) Antonio Pierce decides to not only drop his injured teammate off at the hospital and leave but also takes it upon himself to 'dispose' of the weapon.. *shaking my head*.. I have no words for these two fools. They get what they get. But I will say GOOOO GIANTS as they contiune to steam roll the competition!! (Damn you NY Jets for looking like you are about to mess up dreams of a Subway Super Bowl!!)...

If Plaxico felt as if he needed a gun for a night out on the town, he maybe should have considered staying in. Next time, Make it a blockbuster night. :mrgreen:

I'm sure sometimes the players provoke people but like you said, it doesn't justify this type of retaliation. I think what Plax did was stupid, but I understand why he felt the need to be protected. He could've just went about it in a different way. Thats all. I think we're saying the same thing though.

In addition to learning how to use a gun (AND being able to simply HIRE security personnel) it would be nice if they were also LICENSED to carry the weapon.....

Please leave 50 out of it. After watching him on Tyra and listening him talk about his mom, I realised he was a normal person who grew up in fantastically horrid conditions. He just wanted to be loved like each and every one of us. As for the Plaxico gentleman, Avanti pretty much summed it up. Just get security personnel people or as someone said - make it a true Blockbuster night - popcorn and Twizzlers in tow. Sad.

Stupid much, plexiglass or plastic bag or whatever the hell your name is? He is blessed with a nice career, nice house, nice cars, good money, and he blew it because his dumbass couldn't use his damn head. He had a license in florida to carry a weapon. That license expired. He never renewed it. He decided to carry a loaded weapon to a club. The 'ol fool couldn't dip into his bank account and pay for a bodyguard for one night or weekend, if he felt his life was in danger. Somebody should slap him two times in the back of the head.

Now I'm just saying, maybe ya'll haven't been watching the news about these MF's out to kill these kids who happen to be ballers--two NFL players shot (one killed and the other one injured) in an apartment complex when they were trying to visit some female friends; NFL baller shot & killed in a drive by after a championship TEAM party at a club (that included business professionals as well as the players); NBA baller shot at by dude who said the baller thought "he was all that"; let's not even talk about Iverson and all the attempts on his life; so many attempted murders on these young athletes. Plaxico is a young cat and he has a right to have fun! Maybe he wasn't raised in the Affluent & Prosperous Communities that all of you were obviously raised in, so he doesn't know that there are other areas in which to party. I think if you shoot ya'self in the leg, that's lesson enuf. And btw Tasha, as a student of the law, you should know that for the State to get a conviction on this charge, all elements must be satisfied: one of which is the fact that the gun be not registered to him. So his Not Guilty plea is sufficient to overcome the burden of the government in prosecuting him--whether dumb accident or not. Further, wouldn't you get the best damn atty you could--whether guilty or not--to defend against the witchhunt initiated by some of these prosecutors in order for them to get famous??? I'm just sayin........

P.S. Although Comm'r Goodell

P.S. Although Comm'r Goodell is known for his "heavy handedness"; he is a fair individual who will look at all the facts and consider what's best for the League, the team and the spectators of the sport. One think I like about Goodell is that he doesn't let the MF'g media influence his decision: I will wait for all the facts before I make a statement on his career because it's just not valid at this point...
