Last night (Friday) at not that hot NYC Club Latin Quarters New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress accidentally shot himself in the thigh after it was already announced he wouldn’t play in today’s game against the Washington Redskins because of a hamstring injury.
Update 11/30/2008 7:30 PM EST:
Looks like Plaxico has hired lawyer Benjamin Brafman who defended Diddy after the Cluby NY shooting and will be turning himself in tomorrow (Monday) to face felony weapons charges since he had no permit to carry in New York. This “crime” doesn’t seem like it deserves jail time…

I’m glad he’s doing ok… Get well mayne
Get Well…SMH…Get suspended W/O pay. Why…WHY are you in the club with a gun? Get security if you’re shock….Better yet where was this clubs security? Who else had a gun in there!!
E. D. Ott!
the daily news reported today that teammate A.Peirce assisted in hiding the weapon after it happened.
WHY????!!!!!!
LOL! This is why I avoid ethnic clubs. The bafoonery and Tom Foolery is just too much.
No jail time why cause he’s famous with a lot of money. That’s bullshit because in the state of NY your doing a mandatory 2.5 – 3.5 for your first conviction. Everday in NY people get caught with hammers and they go to jail. Thro his ass in jail because he has all the talent in the world but his brains aren’t there. He needs to learn a lesson. . . .
