Plaxico

By now all sports fans have heard of Plaxico shooting himself in the leg at a night club in New York. Prior to this incident, Tom Coughlin somehow managed to isolate Plaxico as the idiotic, show boat receiver he is and gotten the Giants to play together as a team for the past season and a half. Plaxico sometimes threw tantrums, sometimes didn't show up, and once in awhile was big play threat he is capable of being.

In any case, I heard some sports radio talk show folks mention the bigger issues at play - race, class, etc. Really? Are those bigger issues in play or did a dumbass shoot himself in the leg?

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
