November 30, 200817 yr Certainly looks like he is not missed today. Manning with 220+ in the first half
November 30, 200817 yr I've read they haven't found the gun yet...not sure though. I'd say the odds are he will face some jail time, but I wouldn't be surprised if he got away with it. P.Diddy did :lol:... Peirce has publicly stated he took the gun home, I can't imagine that he didn't give the gun up
November 30, 200817 yr Author Peirce has publicly stated he took the gun home, I can't imagine that he didn't give the gun up I had not read that till now. Stupid move.
November 30, 200817 yr I'm not your son. :lol: And I guess I'm not allowed to have an opinion since I'm not in "real law enforcement". Even if I do ever work in "real law enforcement" one day, that doesn't mean I'll want to kick every gun totin' player out of the NFL. Plax messed up...he'll pay the price. Whether that price is a hefty fine, a suspension from the NFL, a release from the Giants, jail time...he'll pay the price if he is convicted of a crime, I guarantee that. And even if he is released and is no longer a Giant, I still don't think he should be banned from the NFL after this one thing. Absolutely you can have your own opinion. It just has to match mine. I'm unsure why you would want any illegal gun totin' player in the NFL (yes, NFL players have the right to legally possess firearms like any other citizen), especially someone like The Thug, a player who has done nothing but shown a continual lack of respect towards his teammates, his coaches, and the game itself. Yeah, I say let's be done with players such as this. The game is better than these people and will survive not having them around. In fact, it will be better without these thugs.

Shannon Sharpe, who typically protects the players, made very similar comments.
November 30, 200817 yr 6 different Giant receivers have a catch today as they are up 20-7 in Washington.
November 30, 200817 yr So, where does Plax wind up next, Dallas? Oakland? He may get the chance to play with Vick at Allenville Prison. ??? Anybody ???
November 30, 200817 yr Author He may get the chance to play with Vick at Allenville Prison. ??? Anybody ??? I'll wait till I find out his punishment before I make that prediction.
November 30, 200817 yr Author 6 different Giant receivers have a catch today as they are up 20-7 in Washington. And they're playing in the rain too. Manning just went over 300 yards passing.

I don't think you can kick someone out of the league after doing it one time. If they are a repeat offender, and they continue to embarrass the NFL off the field (Pacman, Chris Henry) they should be suspended for life. If Burress continues to break the law after this case (he may be in jail too long for that to happen anyways) then he too should be suspended for life. But not after this one case.
November 30, 200817 yr I'll wait till I find out his punishment before I make that prediction. heard earlier that it carries a 3 years prison term, but I can't imagine he would see more than 3 month's in a halfway house if convicted

There is an out for the NFL commisioners office. This falls into the "Personal Conduct" rule, whihc has been quite gray of recent years. Bottomline is the commish can suspend indefinitely. The player has the right to appeal for reinstatement, but the commish has final say. We've seen it with Pac Man, and Odel
