ESPN just reported Plaxico Burress has been charged with criminal possession of a weapon, a class C felony. I don't have a link at this time.

OOPS!

Apparently, the hospital recognized him (he was probably wearing a Giants jersey ) and elected not to report the gunshot wound, which is a legal requirement. Be interesting to see what happens to them.

if convicted, max is 3.5 years with Micahel Vick

ESPN's Chris Mortensen said, no matter what, Cheddar Plax's career in NY is probably over.

While Mort may be right and Plax may be done in New York, I am always skeptical of what he says.

ESPN radio reported earlier that Plaxico gave a phony name to the doctors as well.

Yeah, he said his name was "Harris Smith" and that the incident took place at an Applebee's. :lol: However, the hospital faculty noticed him but did not report it.

Has any story ever ended, in a positive nature, which had the following components.

 

Alcohol, Strip Club and Guns.

 

When will some people learn.

So you are happy that he accidentally shot himself?

 

I do not like TO, but I wasn't "happy" when he "accidentally" overdosed on drugs...

As opposed to what? Feeling sorry for the guy? He made his bed. And the hole in his leg.

I'm not saying you should feel sympathy for him. But does it have to be one or the other? I'm not sure I've ever been happy to see someone get injured, no matter if it was their fault or not.

 

Like I said, I wasn't happy when TO overdosed...he did it to himself, but that doesn't mean I was happy about it.

It’s like Burress going against a smaller cornerback — hard not to like his chances.

 

Brafman won’t be able to help Burress when the NFL is deciding how long to suspend him. Nor can he do anything about the Giants decision to pay or keep him.

 

But Burress has a decent shot to avoid jailtime.
