Why Did Plaxico Burress Glock Himself? - Page 3
I mean, when he signed with the Giants, he inked a six-year, $25M deal. He has a wife and son to take care of. He spent a good deal of the preseason pouting and moping around because he felt like he wasn't being paid enough. He's had the police called to his house for domestic disturbances and had restraining orders issued against him. He doesn't have to act like a thug, yet continues to. What did his thug actions gain him? It truly makes one realize that all the money and talent in the world doesn't guarantee happiness or smarts.
I'm not saying there aren't good, decent people in sports that we and our kids can look up to. I'm just saying, choose them wisely.
