Reactions to the Plaxico Debacle

A good summary of reactions in the MSM about the Burress incident. Most believe he'll never play for the Giants again.

Some interesting stuff - Keyshawn Johnson and Cris Carter estimate that half the league is packing. And also that the Giants bring in police during training camp every year to specifically warn players about gun possession.

I had initially thought the incident was funny in an absurd kind of way - but after three days, it's actually quite sad that a player would destroy his career and distract one of the better regular season teams in recent memory - and for what? To go to a cheesy dance club armed? It's light years beyond stupid - it's deeply pathetic and embarrassing.
