Let's face it, he hasn't done a whole hell of a lot so far this year and they are still 10-1. Also they are extremely deep at WR and haven't missed a beat when he has been out. Not to mention the distraction he has been so far this year. I am interested to see how the organization is going to handle him this time.

It is so ridiculous that someone can shoot themselves, seriously. I have touched a gun a total of three times in my life (1 handgun, 1 shotgun, 1 rifle) and know ZERO about gun safety, but I know to keep the damn thing pointed towards the ground away from all limbs and people.

Let's see...in a night club..carrying a piece..in NY...not the brightest bulb apparently. Isn't carrying a weapon illegal in NY? Authorities should have a piece of him...too bad for Giants. Hopefully, they won't need him

Gotta wonder what would happen if he and Pacman ran into each other??? Probably he would get shot twice...

Both my grandpa's were avid hunters. They taught me how to shoot but I never really got involved.

the police haven't questioned him as yet-no doubt they have bigger fish to fry.
he only broke the law if he didn't have a concealed carry permit.

people often make the mistake of thinking a gun cannot fire if the safety is on. that's untrue, the safety only keeps the trigger from being pulled.

I thought NY had stricter gun laws than that.

he has a permit to carry but does he have a permit to actually shoot himself?

I believe it is much harder to get the concealed weapon permit in New York. It takes a lot longer than most states.They do more comprehensive background checks and you must have a legitimate reason for wanting (needing) the permit. A family member just recieved their permit in NY, it took about 7 months, in PA it takes about 1-2 weeks.

Here's an update. He did not have a permit, and Antonio Pierce is alleged to have taken the weapon and hid it somewhere in Jersey. The Post has a similar version of the story, except in their's, Plax was emptying the bullets out of his gun when it accidently went off.

I was totally oblivious to this story until right now. What a spook. Really. I rarely get like this, but when it's necessary, its necessary. I thought he was doing his usual self all week, not practicing. This is actually funny.

I'm hungover today, but the $44 dollar bottle of Jack will do that from time to time.
