keepthefaith Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Then why go to these nightclubs? Stay home and be your family. I've been to many bars/night clubs in many different cities. Never have I been in a gun fight or in a situation where I would want a gun. Plax is dumb-remember the spike in his rookie year? He actually did it twice in one season. He thinks he's better than the team. I'm not a Giants fans but its nice to see them winning without the selfish players, plax, shockey, barber. Hopefully other teams follow their lead and these fools will be out of the league. There is a culture out there where guns are the norm on a night out. Many athletes participate in that culture. Sad but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Florio at PFT speculates: Did he have a license to carry a concealed firearm? If he was carrying an illegal gun, there's a 3.5 year mandatory minimum. http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/11/29/...-years-in-jail/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalkie Gerzowski Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 What an idiot. Why would he even carry a gun in a nightclub? Can't possibly contribute to anything but trouble. If he is worried about his safety then he should not be out on the town or at a minimum hire a bodyguard. Stupid incidents like this are why I appreciate Marv Levy insisting on going after players with high character. I get to see the circus here in Dallas every day. Their collection of players prone to moronic acts like this have not turned them into a good team. See, if he played for the Bills, why there's nowhere to go...he'd have to stay home or go to Applebees...or maybe Dave and Busters...Plexiglass would have little need for a gun...unless he wanted to Elvis his TV set after his 44th straight game of Madden 09.

d_wag Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 PLAXICO’S GUN FIRED WHILE HE WAS UNLOADING IT Posted by Mike Florio on November 29, 2008, 11:46 p.m. More details are emerging regarding the accidental self-shooting of Giants receiver Plaxico Burress. Per the New York Post, Burress was confronted by security guards at a Manhattan night club, and Burress admitted that he had a loaded gun in his possession. He went to a secure area with one of the guards, and Burress began to unload the gun while drinking wine. Burress then began to bobble the weapon, and that’s when it fired a bullet through his thigh. Burress stopped security personnel from calling an ambulance. A friend took him to a local hospital. Meanwhile, Taco Bill has uncovered a surveillance photo of Burress and his companions moments before the incident. http://www.profootballtalk.com/category/rumor-mill/ ------------------------------------------ i'm happy to say the worst thing buffalo WR's do is drop catchable passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Per the New York Post, Burress was confronted by security guards at a Manhattan night club, and Burress admitted that he had a loaded gun in his possession. Does Plax have a permit to carry a concealed weapon in New York City? That's kind of a big deal there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burress did have a concealed-weapon permit issued to him in Florida, where he has a home, but records show it expired in May. And even if it was still valid, New York does not recognize out-of-state permits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Bill can comment from the law enforcement perspective. Oh, and give me a fuggin' break with the "football players are scared for their safety" nonsense.

jester43 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 it is not nonsense. you have forgotten about sean taylor already? these guys have huge targets on their backs. you think he carried the gun because he was looking to rob somebody? he may be guilty of bad judgment, but he has every reason to feel paranoid.

silvermike Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Look, if Plaxico had seriously worried about his safety, you'd think that he would have learned how to use a gun well enough to NOT SHOOT HIMSELF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Look, if Plaxico had seriously worried about his safety, you'd think that he would have learned how to use a gun well enough to NOT SHOOT HIMSELF. Given all the shiite he's been in this last year, it is clear that by far the biggest danger to Plaxico Burress is Plaxico Burress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 More: Giants WR Plaxico Burress will surrender to authorities when requested -- without a warrant -- and will address his legal issues as early as tomorrow, according to the lawyer who will be representing him, Benjamin Brafman.
