In the words of King Julian (Madagascar): "All hail the New York Giants!"
(end of sarcasm)
NY Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress shot himself in the leg at a NYC club early Saturday morning.
Burress was packing heat at a Manhattan club and according to reports, when his gun slipped down his pant leg, he accidentally set it off when he tried to get it back into position.
Thank goodness he didn't hurt anyone else.
The Giants' trouble doesn't end there.
Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce, who was also at the club partying, tried to 'help' his teammate out by hiding his gun.
Police insiders reveal that Burress is expected to be arrested on felony weapons charges and that Pierce's attorney was 'in frantic discussions with cops' on Saturday night to save his client from criminal charges.
Don't most teams have 'no partying' rules during the season?
Way to eff up the team's 'dream season', guys.
Oh, and get this.
Plaxico said that he had to carry a gun for 'protection'.
You caught last year's Super Bowl winning pass for goodness sake!
