Troubled Giants Receiver Could Do Time

December 3rd, 2008

Plaxico Burress

 The New York Giants suspended Plaxico Burress for four games on Tuesday, effectively ending his season, after he accidentally shot himself in the thigh over the weekend at a Manhattan nightclub, according to The Associated Press. The team also placed him on non-football injury reserve, which means he can’t return for the playoffs, either. If the news that he was being punished for conduct detrimental to the team wasn’t bad enough for Burress, the Giants receiver was also charged with illegal weapons possession, which could land him in prison from three to 15 years. Read the rest here.

Yes , Plex made a bad choice but he’s not the 1st to make a bad choice. I’m quite sure some of these judges, officers etc have made bad choices but yrs in prison isnt always the answer for everyone. Those of us that believe in God need to pray that God be the Judge and the Jury for this kid not because of his race or pro status but because he is a child of God. for all that have nothing but negative thoughts/opinions remember you or your love one could be in a bad situation because of a bad choice so think about what is said out of the mouth because you may need these same prayers one day. May God bless Plex and his family and especially all of you!

He would have been better off just saying somebody shot him and he did not know who it was. Dummy! What’s wrong with people with money? Are they just plain ole stupid? I wish him and his family the best. Next time, keep ur pistol on lock.

“stupid is what stupid does”. our black men get money and their brains stop working. what the heck is going on? he makes enough money to hire someone to protect him. forget that hood stuff just because you come from the hood don’t mean you have to bring the hood with you. It’s not where you live all the time it’s sometimes how you live where you live.

Burress should give the situation to God and He will work it out. We all have experience times when we should have made better choices. That is why God is God because He is the only one who will love us unconditional. Burress ask God for His grace with this situation.

He’s not going to jail …. stay tuned

I THINK HIM SHOOTING HIMSELF IS PUNISHMENT ENOUGH…………….



vinnie Said on

i think the mayor should go to hell after all he is just a foot ball player not a dam criminal with a dam record.and they want to punish him. they sure let people with worser record get out of jail in less time than 3 years.

What I see here is a sad situation for this mans family, with the possibility of NO monies coming in if this self centered butt goes to jail. When you become a husband and a father the way you act and think should change. Your family depends on you to be there for them and Plaxico Burress dropped the ball. I understand that he had punished himself with his antics in the past making him a risky player for the NFL. Now he’ll grow up bigtime because his money cant get him out of this mess that he willingly put himself in. ATTENTION all celebrities you are a target and an example to be made of. Be wise, hold on to your money, spend more family time, and stay out of the party life so much.

Once again examples is being set of a young black men. He shot himself and can get this punishment. Like I said before out legal system is screwed up. It protects the criminals not the innocents. You hear law enforcement talking about protecting the critizens and most of them is creating the problem in our legal system by not being dirty officers themselves. But, for the New York Giants team and staff the hole you put your member in – you made one for youself too. To our young black men in this world you will always be treated different – no matter what you do good in society. One bad mistake, can erase all the good you have ever contributed. And the result will always be different even if you do the same crime.



janice Said on

correction to previous comment. Line 5 should read no being clean officers, instead of not being dirty officers.

I Said on

That’s unfortunate for him



CJ Said on

I can’t say that I have any feel point for Plaxico at this point because he has brought this on himself. Many black males with celebrity status seem to not be able to handle it very well be it in sports or entertainment. They do the most wacked out stuff that makes them look like idiots in a major way. Just dumb it’s almost as if they sabotage themselves for their success and don’t feel comfortable being off the plantation.



vera Said on

When will the greedy societal justice system stop trying to railroad people not guilt of crimes of others.The mans only mistakes was having a unlicense gun.Stop trying to make something out of nothing.Go find the real criminals.
