Plax Released!!

[sheepshead]

Fairly obvious the Giant brass made a run with their lawyers and learned Plax is toast for a year +.

They will move on a WR in the draft for sure.

Plaxico?

i think a year, maybe 18 months in the cooler.

Yup Bloomberg has already made his feelings known. He'll pressure the prosecutors on this one.

Now if he were to end up in Chicago.........!

You don't release a talent and playmaker like Plax unless you know you can't use that asset....no different than any other player with a high cap number.

Plax won't be playing anywhere this season. Relax.

Plaxico is charged with a felony gun law violation that has a mandatory minimum of 3 1/2 years in prison. (not jail, prison)

What's the difference between jail and prison?

I think AV was referring to the difference between stuff like landing yourself in the drunk tank, or being given some time, but being able to serve it on week-ends. Prison is behind bars, menace to society type stuff. You go in, you come out when your term is up. If you're lucky you have enough soap on a rope to last you.

I guess maybe it's a good thing that you dont know.


Prison is a state or federal sentence. Much more serious. The drunk tank in Racine vs. Waupun for instance.

You don't get assigned a girlfriend in jail.

Yeah, Homie.

I knew you were playing us on this one.

Jail is the county. Drunks, fools, and people waiting for trial. They come and they go.

Prison is the joint. Everybody is locked up and they live there. Each week people get released.

A friend of mine's son played with Plax an MSU. He said Plax is a real nice guy, but a goof. He's the kind of guy who plays practical jokes that nobody laughs at. After it backfires on him, he feels bad and everybody tries to cheer him up. But he's a great teammate. A real stud who can play his ass off.

He is an airhead, and really pissed Cowher off with his shit. But he's an honest guy who plays hard, and the guys all like him.

He's the kind of teammate everybody likes, but nobody would let him watch their kids. He's no gangster, just a screw-up kind of dude.

Anyone have any ideas what will come of his legal problems?

If the Bears were to pick him up, then I'd be a bit scared.

Rest easy...He's good, but hardly the playmaker Moss has been, yet much more the headache...It's opportunity cost vs. production...Moss produces more for less headache...Yet it's negotiable as he's still a headcase few teams wanted to take on a few years ago. For all of Plax's production..he's gonna cause gangsta issues few want.

Bring it on to the Bears or Vikes...He's out the league in a year or two anyways.

Quote the Snake. Never more.

I think you mean "for a year or two". If he doesn't cut a deal on the gun charge, he's going to prison for at least 3.5 years. If he does, well he'll go for as long as the deal specifies. Both the DA and the mayor are playing hardball with him, trying to make an example of him specifically because he is a celebrity athlete, and he is factually guilty.

The only reason the Giants cut him is because he won't be able to play for the Giants for at least one season, possibly up to four.

That's why you quote the Snake and never more.

Nope..I really meant year or two...as he's old regarldess. Plax is done no matter what.

Actually there is more "free" time in prison then county jail time....time in the yard, classes to occupy time. Most would rather do 1 year prison than 1 year jail time. Although a person might not be as "safe" in prison as one would be in jail.
