Hey Coach, Its Plax... I Might Be Goin' to Jail

Well this story has gained more strength than more people doing steriods. If you didnt want ESPN or look anywhere online today, Plaxico Burress turned himself in a New York City Police Department today.

It appears that he illegially had a firearm who would of guessed it, I thought he registered that one. Oh yeah, would you look at that, it would result in two felony counts in the great state of New York. Also NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg said that Plaxico Burress should do the usual 3 years and 15 days that most do for the crimes Burress has committed. Rut roh. I guess the positive is that he has the same lawyer P. Diddy and most mobsters use. In Diddy's case, he got acquitted of all charges.

I know that NFL player needs to protect himself these days with the death of Sean Taylor and everything but why on earth, do you carry a bunch of cash and wear expensive jewelry into a club. Yeah, yeah you gotta look good, gotta make it rain but it could buy the same amount of drinks with your Platinum card, probably still look like the shit with one gold chain. Burress didnt need to go the "Pacman Route", he is such a better player with real talent and now he is completely grouped with the Moss, Owens, Ocho Cincos of the world. Also why were you fumbling with a loaded gun? I would like to think the worst in this situation, that someone was coming at Burress so he got to his loaded gun to defend himself. Its the only logical reason for why he was messing with his gun.

But in the modern day society, haven't NFL players become more human with guys like Michael Vick in prison and PacMan Jones getting suspended for various things. Doesnt it seem like people dont give a shit that they played for an NFL team? Lets go back to PacMan too, he used a firearm illegally as well and he got suspended for a whole year for it. It would be only right that Burress would face the same consequences that Jones did.

I am sure this isnt the last article about this.
