Plaxico Burress missed workout for family emergency. Giants suspend him one game.

Smells like domestic dispute.

That's a good point. If you read the Post article, his agent talks about how much of this type of thing or worse gets swept under the rug.

I think it was a little much, maybe fine him a little but suspension from a game, he hasn't run into the law before has he?

Ask a Stealer fan. I have no idea.

Oh for shame. For shame on you.

He did miss practices when he was in Pitt. Stuff like skipping Mother's Day practice without telling Cowher. I don't think he's had any major run-ins with the law...

That a new team? the Stealers...sounds intimidating.

Anyway, Plax is somewhat of a troublemaker, that's why Pittsburgh got rid of him. He's not that bad, but he's difficult.

But in this case, if it was a legit family emergency, then the Giants overreacted. A two-game suspension is rediculous regardless. He's their star receiver and they need him. Stupid move on their part. Having said that, I have a feeling there is more to this story than we know.

This throws a huge wrench in my fantasy. Dammit

No, you're getting the Black team and the Mexican team confused.

You're thinking of the Los Angeles Beaners.
