Plaxico Burress 

New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress , 31, accidentally shot himself in the leg on Friday night, according to reports. There are a few details available about the shooting but it is confirmed that the the wounds are not life-threatening. He spent last night in the hospital. “I don’t have anything for you at this stage,” Giants spokesman Pat Hanlon told The Associated Press at Giants Stadium. Burress has had his share of problems recently. He suffered an injured a hamstring two weeks ago against the Baltimore Ravens. The Giants also said Friday he would not play Sunday against the Redskins in Washington. The receiver was suspended for a game and fined $117,500 for missing a team meeting and failing to notify the team in advance that he would be absent.  Then, the NFL fined  him $45,000 for abusing an official and tossing a ball in the stands during a game against the San Francisco 49ers.  Prior to this season, the receiver, celebrated for catching the winning pass in the Super Bowl game against the Patriots, signed a five-year, $35 million contract.

Plaxico,
Know when you’re blessed, it could be much worse, so don’t offend God with stupidity! Take the guns out of your home and life. You just don’t need to be caught up shooting yourself or someone else. Get some anger management help, because you certainly need it. If you need a counselor, call me. Hell, I’ll do it for free, if it’s gonna cause you to live your life to the fullest. what you have done is out of the will of god. Get back into his will, and your life will become better. Peace. alee

1.What was he doing with a gun.?!
2. With all the problems maybe he had more than an “accident”? hope he gets a psyche eval before he leaves care. Money doesn’t buy or fix everything.
3. He needs to get involved with helping others with all that excess dough.
I’m homeless ( because) multi-disabled and once, if i get in housing want to start a charity to prevent the hell I’ve lived for others denied shElter a path out because of physical disability and long term illness. Im white female short timer veteran, i see a lot of black veterans and non (esp. females_ with physical or multi disability not getting the help.
SERIOUSLY.
MAYBE THIS IS A perfect TIME FOR HIM TO THINK OF GETTING INVOLVED instead of in trouble…
Have his people call my people ( LOL).

Wow!!! A man accidentally shoots himself in the leg, and everyone else is to blame for it!!! I don’t get it. On top of that, others are speculating as to what actually occurred like they witnessed the event. I will never understand the stupidity and ignorance of people.
