Should the Colts Get Plaxico Burress

PrintAfter being released by the Giants, where the hell will Plaxico Burress go now? I got an answer, the Indianapolis Colts. Yes, I know. A lot people might be thinking, "J.D., are you serious? Plaxico Burress in a COLTS UNIFORM!"
But I do have a few reasons why Plax should be a Colt. And here they are:
Could he be the replacement for Marivn Harrison? Can he possibly be better than Marvin Harrison? Now that I really don't see Marvin coming back to the Colts, or going to any other team, what should the Colts decide to do? If they don't get a receiver at all in the off-season, it will be tough.
Marvin has been so productive but now that he is aging, his productivness is fading away. Now the Colts need a new receiver. How can you deny the size? At 6'5" and 232 pounds, he is also fast and can catch.
If the Colts get Burress, then they don't have to waste a draft pick on a wide receiver. Then the Colts can get James Laurinaitis in the NFL draft. That would be swell. Peyton can also have another good target to help out Reggie Wayne and Anthony Gonzalez.
The Colts have a huge shot of getting Plaxico. They have gotten a gift. Now use it. If they got him, it would be just like last year. I was hoping the Colts would get Mike Hart, and they did. They just got lucky. And now they can get lucky once more.
The Colts could be a dominant team with Plaxico. He will be the tallest receiver for the team, and that is a good thing. With the same height as Peyton Manning, Manning will find another new target. Better than Marvin and Reggie.
You'll be seeing more dazzling numbers. The Colts receivers aren't that tall. Right now, their tallest one is Roy Hall at 6'3". But he may be cut from the team this year. Roy Hall isn't even ready to play, I bet.
The Colts have so many receivers to choose from, but now they have the right one: Plaxico Burress.
If they get Plax, the Colts' Super Bowl run is back!

No way in hell. The same team who fired a guy for smoking weed would take a guy who might be going to jail for a year? That’s ridiculous
"If you don't [draft me], I promise you I'll come back and kick your ass for the next 15 years."
Damn, I was going to make an Aprils Fools Day gag :-(
As for Plaxico – "Yeah but no but yeah but no but yeah but no but ye…
No."

No.
There are so many ways for me to say this.
Now a proud annoyance on Stampede Blue, 18to88, Indy Football Report, and Phil B's blog.
Man, I need a life...
Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: In my bedroom, I have 3 footballs with both Mike Vanderjagt's and Gilbert Gardner's signatures on them. Interesting story. Maybe I'll tell you about it sometime.
Well Hang on
Maybe we can get him on the cheap, as part of a work release program.
Defense if more important then breathing.
Not until 2010
And by then the wide receiver position will be cleaned up hopefully.

Who's Being Mean?
This is a pretty civil conversation. You asked if the Colts should go after Plax, and everyone is giving an emphatic ‘No’. It’s just a strong feeling that Plax would not be a good fit.

Wishful thinking
Burress has too much baggage, fines, missed practices etc for the Colts to be interested.
He's from my area
So it sort of sucks, but I think this basically sums it up better than anything I could write.
“ESPN.com reports free-agent WR Plaxico Burress (Giants) cursed out a police officer in Florida during a recent traffic stop, telling the cop he was going to be in trouble because Burress knew the sheriff “personally,” according to the New York Post. Burress replied to each of the officer’s questions and commands with an “(expletive) you” during the stop, according to police. Broward County Deputy Sheriff Donald Harris pulled Burress over March 18 for speeding on Interstate-95 near Fort Lauderdale. Harris opened the door of Burress’ black 2008 Toyota Sequoia when the officer couldn’t see inside the player’s SUV. “(Expletive) you,” Burress said. “You can’t open my (expletive) door.” Burress, who the police report said was driving like “he was going to kill somebody,” was issued a $150 speeding citation, his fifth traffic ticket in Florida in the past month, the report said."
Granted, it’s ESPN so it might not be true.
Jim Sorgi runs a 4.6 40. That's all I've got to say about that.
Surprising he didn’t use the ol’ “Don’t you know who I am? I’m Plaxico Burress bitch!” That one works 70% of the time, all the time.
This line will remain in my signature until the Colts draft Rashad Jennings in 2009.
Oh and I write words and stuff for Stampede Blue.
That smells like diesel!
Paul Rudd makes any movie better. Period.
