What's more stupid than tearing your ACL while celebrating a made field goal? Let's ask ex-Cardinal's kicker Bill Grammatica. Or we can ask newfound idiot Plaxico Burress who recently spent the night at the hospital after shooting himself in the leg.
The Giants said the shooting happened Friday night and he was released from the hospital early Saturday. The team did not say which hospital Burress went to or how badly he was injured.Can someone please explain to me what the heck he was doing bringing a gun to a nightclub in the first place? This is beyond retarded. I can completely imagine him grinding up against a girl, and then she's like oh my Plaxico, you have such big black feet. And then she goes in for a little action and whoops that's not a Ball Park frank. Bam! He just got shot in the thigh.
However, a team official told The Associated Press that Burress shot himself in a nightclub. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the team was still trying to sort out all the facts.

What is it with athletes and coming to clubs packed?? I thought people go to clubs to get drunk and get action. I wouldn't want myself holding a gun if I was drunk. We need to get commentary from Stephen Jackson this instant. At least S-Jax was at a strip club.
I really want to know how this happened. Because I see two scenarios here.
Scenario #1: he is holding the gun and accidentally shoots himself in the thigh.
Scenario #2: The gun is in his pocket and somehow (grinding on a girl like discussed before, or maybe when scratching his balls) the gun goes off.
In both scenarios Plaxico is a dumbass. He catch. He dumbass.
Let's just hope this didn't happen to him:
