I know you are all tired of Plaxico Burress stories (me, too) but this amazing rip job by Tim Hasselbeck, ex-Giants backup QB and current ESPN talking head, is too good not to comment on.
"When you're looking at Plaxico Burress, there's no doubt that he can be a dominant receiver at times on Sundays," Hasselbeck said. "We've seen it. But with that being said, I played with the guy. I was in the locker room with him for two years. He's a disaster as a teammate. He's a disaster as a guy that you have to coach.
"And what do I mean by that? If you want to wait for a guy to show up to meetings, if you want to have to beg a guy to run full-speed in practice, if you want a guy that would disappear in games because he doesn't get the ball early -- then look, Plaxico Burress is your guy.
"But if you don't want those distractions, and you don't want to deal with the other headaches that come along with Plaxico Burress, then you better stay away from him."
There might be some 'failed NFL QB trying to make a name for himself as an analyst' in Hasselbeck's remarks. I love them, anyway.
Good luck to the Jets, or anyone else who takes on Plax. You will need it.
