Five Reasons NOT to Grant Plaxico Burress EarlyRelease from Prison
Mostsportsbookbettors probably predicted this. Plaxico Burress, in all his lankyglory, is already struggling to cut it in prison. After just
two months
in the slammer,he applied for a work furlough, which would let him do some of his time at home.Really, Plaxico? You think the State of New York will just let you go home becauseyou no likey prison? Sorry, pal. Here are five reasons why Plaxico needs to staybehind bars for a whole lot longer.
5. He’d scare the neighbors.
If you live near a guy who accidentally shoots himself, can you trust him near yourchildren or in the next house over? You’d have to wear a Kevlar vest in case his .40-caliber hand cannon blasts through the window. Plaxico would likely scare everyoneaway, making his lonely neighborhood like solitary confinement anyway.
4. TNA Wrestling can’t stoop any lower.
 TNA already slummed by signing Pacman Jones and having him moonlight as a tag-team wrestler. Methinks bringing in Burress, which the company would surely try todo, would be a nail in the organization’s coffin. Besides, who needs Plaxico whenyou just landed the Hulkster, brother?
3. Shhh! Don’t tell Plaxico, but the New York Giants receiving corps is finewithout him.
Steve Smith already has 979 yards and five scores. That puts him on pace for 1,466yards on the year – roughly 100 yards more than Plaxico has ever amassed in a fullseason. Smith’s 78 grabs through 12 games have also tied Plaxico’s career-bestmark, which he set 16 games. Oops – guess Burress wasn’t a huge loss for New Yorkafter all. TheNFL oddsof the Giants bringing him back after his sentence are nextto none.
