Former Michigan State standout and current NFL wide receiver Plaxico Burress shot himself in the thigh at a nightclub early on the morning of Nov. 29. He was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and faces up to 3½ years in prison. Burress has pleaded not guilty and is free on $100,000 bail. But the Manhattan attorneys that are prosecuting him want him to spend one or two years in prison. Plaxico has agreed to spend one year in prison. Burress, who caught the go-ahead touchdown in the final minute for New York in the 2008 Super Bowl, also could face disciplinary action by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell under the league's personal conduct policy. Plaxico Burress is a dumb-ass for shooting himself and the only punishment he should get is humiliation to the public. Hes a disgrace to Michigan State University.
