Awesome

I read this over on the Shutdown Corner this morning. I touched on this briefly before, but for all his talent Burress is something of a douche bag. The Shutdown Corner guys summed it up far better than I ever could, but needless to say I am unimpressed by Burress' attitude after signing a new, fat contract. I wonder if anyone told him that nothing in the NFL is guaranteed? It's tough for me as a Giants fan because on the field the guy gives it his all on almost every play. Like most prima donna receivers, he is sometimes disinterested in blocking, but he runs his routes hard, has improved his hands considerably, and is a weapon opposing teams have to game plan for every week. I gained a lot of respect for Burress for gutting it out on a noticeably hampered ankle last season, but I have a hard time rooting for someone who works less at his job than I do. Now if you'll excuse me, someone left a Guinness in the office fridge and I think I can find it a good home.
