Plaxico Burress plead guilty to weapons possession charges and is now going to jail for 2 years, with 2 more years of supervised living. It's a better deal than if he went to trial where he could have face 17 years in the slammer. I'm not even gonna bother comparing Stallworth getting 24 days for killing a man while impaired versus 2 years for shooting yourself. I wonder the prison time Plax would have gotten if he actually killed himself with his own gun. I say 3 lifetimes.
I have three problems with this ruling:
1) Didn't P-Diddy once fire a pistol at a nightclub with J-Lo and I dont recall him ever serving a day of jail, community service, or losing a dollar for that matter. I dont know if Diddy had a registered gun, but i still dont believe you are allowed to shoot it in a private establishment. Maybe the two lawyers on this blog can fill me in.
2) Why has no one else been arrested in this investigation. Didn't Antonio Pierce hide the weapon Plexico shot himself with. Didn't he also hide the Plexico's bloody clothes to intentionally deceive the police? Didn't the club he was at know that he had a gun when he walked through the front door? Yes, yes, and yes.
3) Plexico would have been a perfect fit for the Bears. A tall wide receiver who knows where to line-up, where to run, and how to catch the ball before it hits the ground. If he was good enough to make Eli Manning the richest man in the history of the NFL, he could have made Jay Cutler Marino, Montana, and Elway all rolled into one. Fuck!
You had to know it was all downhill for Plex when he spiked the football after making a diving catch as a rookie. Whats the problem you ask? No one touched him. He wasnt down yet. Fumble. It's not college retard

1) If DME and myself are considered lawyers after spending less then a week in law school, then I expect you to be able to perform open heart surgery dr.
But i'm not familiar with the the p puff daddy diddy whatever his name is case so I don't know. it could very well be that his hand gun was registered and Plax's wasn't and NY has some gay laws about gun ownership
2) This is a damn damn shame
3) It's hard to compare any case now to Stallworth's b/c if you did criminals would only gets like days and weeks in jail for committing rape and assault and stuff
4) Maybe when hes 31 and out of jail he can come to the Bears? A man can dream right

I cannot comment on substantive matters with legal implications. I may, however, comment on the statistical implications. Did you hear that CBS picked up my Rios post?
