I hope the team has a moron clause in his contract so when he keeps doing stupid things like this he does not get paid and gets dumped from the team.

As a Skins fan, I can’t hate on the timing too much (we have a game tomorrow) but I still think back to when he was a Spartan and this is what you kind of have to expect from Spartan players. That’s why they aren’t allowed at Michigan.

Whether it’s drunken QBs, weirdo wideouts like Burress or Andre Rison or Demetrius Underwood the nutcase, this is what Sparty produces. Contrast Burress with Amani Toomer (or even Braylon “I regressed to freshman year at Mich” Edwards)

“Plaxico’’ What the hell kind of name is that? Sounds like some kind of medication.

Not a medication, but rather a treatment for an injured hamstring.

If your hamstring hurts, fire a round into your leg and that hamstring will not bother you any more.

I always thought it sounded like the name of a petroleum products company. Regardless, I wish him a full recovery.

This should help out Dallas in a couple of weeks. Too bad, so sad for the Giants. Stuff happens. I just hope Dallas doesn't lose anybody against Pittsburgh next week. The Cowboys needs all their guns for the stretch run.

GO COWBOYS

To quote Radiohead, ‘you do it to yourself, and that’s why it really hurts.” What an idiot.

Unfortunately, this didn’t happen before last January’s NFC Championship game against the Packers.
