Here's an update. He did not have a permit, and Antonio Pierce is alleged to have taken the weapon and hid it somewhere in Jersey. The Post has a similar version of the story, except in their's, Plax was emptying the bullets out of his gun when it accidently went off.

I was totally oblivious to this story until right now. What a spook. Really. I rarely get like this, but when it's necessary, its necessary. I thought he was doing his usual self all week, not practicing. This is actually funny.

I'm hungover today, but the $44 dollar bottle of Jack will do that from time to time.

I'm guessing Burress is done for he season and unless he shows some real remorse his days as a Giants might be over. As far as Pierce goes, he just showed some bad judgement. It looks like he is willing to spill his guts so he can play. I'm guessing (hoping) that he will be just fined.

Flex should face a fin in the klink. As for Pierce, tampering isn't any joke, but something tells me a slap on the wrist will occur. If Goodell wants to call a fair game, he should step in here.

The G-Men would step up in his absence anyhow. Players tend to play above their talent level when one of the big dogs goes down. See Jamal Charles.

he's in deeper than i thought....


excerpts from an espn article:

"ESPN legal analyst Roger Cossack reported that Burress could face up to seven years in prison if convicted on the felony charge of carrying a concealed weapon without a permit"

Mayor Michael Bloomberg called for a full prosecution of state law that requires mandatory prison for carrying a loaded handgun.

"I don't think anybody should be exempt from that, and I think it would be an outrage if we didn't prosecute to the fullest extent of the law, particularly people who live in the public domain, make their living because of their visibility -- they're the role models for our kids," Bloomberg said.

Burress had a concealed-weapon permit issued to him in Florida but records show it expired in May and New York does not recognize out-of-state permits anyway, New York media have reported

as for the above, i would disagree with bloomberg about burress being a role model-the #1 role model for future behavior is a childs immediate family, followed by extended family and friends.
