Burress shoots himself in the leg

[Connemara]

WTF? http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8...ts-self-in-leg

Not going to judge yet, but it sounds like he is a complete idiot. The G-Men might be in for a let-down this year.

Man, Plaxico always seemed so intelligent. This is a real shock to me.

I don't know who this guy is, admittedly, but one would think if you're entirely livelihood were based on having healthy legs, one wouldn't play with firearms and risk shooting themselves in the leg.

It's like pianists cooking with really sharp knives. When I was younger and doing lots of playing, I remember my piano teacher hated it even when I'd go out and play tennis because of the chance of blisters.

Do these sports stars who get injuries doing stupid things not have agents, wives, family members who say, "Hey, dumbass, the reason we live in a $5,000,000 mansion is because you can run. So, please don't go hunting/skiing/etc."

You spelled it wrong.

It's D'Brickashw

Ferguson is named after Father Ralph de Bricassart, a fictional character on the 1983 mini-series The Thorn Birds, played by Richard Chamberlain.

Do you think there are more Plaxicos or D'Brickashaws running around?

At a certain point you have to say screw it, cut him, and let the Cowboys or Raiders deal with his crap.

It happened in a nightclub, which may complicate things.

Oh well.

Better Plaxico than Hannibal, the funniest guy in Chicago:

Why does Burress shooting himself not seem off to me?

 

[Tokyo Slim]

I hear the Raiders could use a whole lot more trouble than they already have.

Just imagine Mike Vick to a one legged Plax in 2010!!
