New York Giants superstar wide receiver Plaxico Burress has been suspended 4 games by the NFL, and faces a minimum of 3 and a half years in prison on concealed weapon charges for his incident last friday outside of a New York night club. The receiver accidentally shot himself in the thigh with a .40 glock pistol outside of the club as he fumbled it trying to conceal it from bouncers. The lastest fiasco is likely the end for Plaxico as a New York Giant, whether or not he ever plays in the league again, who has been suspended numerous times for violating various team rules. The gunshot wound itself didnt cause much damage, and he was out of the hospital within 7 hours and has reportedly been walking fine and been laughing off the incident. He is not the only person under fire in the investigation however. Giants star linebacker Antonio Pierce is being investigated as he allegedly tried to hide the weapon after the incident. Also, the doctor who treated Burress has been suspended for not reporting the gunshot wound to police, which is a strict policy.
