Man Is Plax Getting Bad Advice All The Way Around

[Keith]

first his attorney allows his court proceeding to be put off until June, effectively dooming his chances of playing for the Giants (or probably anyone else) in 2009. Then it comes out that before they cut him, the Giants offered to restructure his deal and keep him, if he dropped his grievance about the $1 million bonus. His agent, Dunce Rosenhaus turned it down.

Plax is an idiot. And he is apparently surrounding himself with idiots as well.



Plaxico Burress reportedly turned down an offer from the Giants that would have allowed him a chance to earn the rest of the money on his contract if he ended his on-going grievance with the team.

Burress essentially turned down a chance to earn $29.5 million over the next four years to fight for the $1 million that the Giants withheld from him at the end of last year. That case is still pending, but this shows how badly Plax wanted to get out of New York. And that he's getting weak advice, because another contract that big isn't coming. Apr. 3 - 8:27 pm et

And people wonder why this guy shot himself in the leg. There is your answer. Another mental giant is now unemployed.

Thus solidifying the argument that agents ruin sports.

Plaxico trying to prove he's #1 bonehead in league. Congrats he just clinched

[Steel]

Steelers got rid of this bone head for a reason. I am still laughing at the people that said the Steelers couldn't win with out Plexico Burress. Cancer doesn't last long on Steeler football teams.

Indeed. The Giants were going to keep him, despite the fact that he likely would miss most, if not all of the 2009 season, AND pay him $29.5 MILLION DOLLARS, and he turned it down.

LMFAO

At least this time Plaxico Burress was only shooting from the lip.

The pistol-packing punk fired a string of profanities at a deputy sheriff two weeks ago after he was stopped for erratic driving in Florida, police said.

"(Expletive) you! You're going to be in a lot of trouble. I know the sheriff personally," the receiver raged at Broward County Deputy Sheriff Donald Harris during the March 18 traffic stop, police said.

The embattled gridder (right) -- who was released by the Giants on Friday and faces 3½ years in prison on a gun-possession charge after shooting himself in the leg at a Manhattan nightclub on Nov. 29 -- followed every question and command with a "(Expletive) you," according to the citation.

It appears Burress' driving is as wild as his shooting; the ticket was his fifth driving infraction in Florida in the past month alone.

In the March 18 incident near Fort Lauderdale, Burress, 31, was speeding south on I-95 in his black 2008 Toyota Sequoia at 10:30 a.m. when he crossed several lanes of traffic, cutting off vehicles to get on I-595's westbound ramp, police said.

Harris pulled over the car because Burress was driving like "he was going to kill somebody," according to police.

When Officer Harris approached, he couldn't see inside the tinted windows of Burress' SUV, so he opened a door and found the ex-Giant talking on his cellphone.

"(Expletive) you! You can't open my (expletive) door!" Burress barked, police said. That's when Burress issued his boastful threat about knowing Broward County Sheriff Al Lamberti.

At one point, Harris asked Burress to get out of his car because of his "violent and aggressive" attitude, police said. The deputy wanted to see if the fuming, 6-foot-5 footballer was carrying a gun. Burress, who wasn't packing, complied. But he wasn't happy about it.

Eventually, Burress, who has a home in nearby Lighthouse Point, returned to his car, snarling, "You're going to hear about this by the end of your shift!"

But Burress was bluffing about his connections. The sheriff has "never met him," a police spokeswoman said.

Burress was hit with a $150 moving violation.

Two weeks earlier, on March 1, Burress was slapped with four violations for driving 60 mph in a 45-mph zone, improper tags, improper lane change and improper window tinting.

Burress' gun-possession case has been adjourned until June 15.

some guys just don't get it. Until they end up dead (or killing someone else first).
