Plaxico Gets Jail Time

I'll make this short because frankly, I don't care, but Plaxico Burress struck a deal with the D.A. that earned him a 2 year jail sentence.

Two years seems a little steep, since Donte Stallworth received 28 days for running a pedestrian over on a freeway while intoxicated, but Plax wanted to be gangsta.

I understand that athletes who go to clubs become targets for robbery, his teammate Steve Smith was robbed at gunpoint days later, but be smart about it. Guys who have so much to lose have such a liaise fare attitude about the decisions they make.

If he had registered his gun, and gotten a license to carry, he would've gotten off with a bullet wound in his own leg.

Now he'll be in jail for 2 years, at the peak of his career. But it's aight, he's gangsta.
