In honor of Thanksgiving, I am going to hand out an award called the “Sports Turkey of the Week”. The award is being given to Plaxico Burress. Unfortunately he is not here to accept the award, since he is in the hospital after shooting himself in the leg:

New York Giants receiver Plaxico Burress suffered an accidental gunshot wound Friday night in a club, according to multiple sources.

Details of the incident weren’t immediately available, but according to a source the wound was not considered life-threatening.

Fox Sports.com reported that Burress accidentally shot himself in the leg and spent the night in the hospital.

I know Burress doesn’t like to practice, but this is a little overkill on trying to get out of it. What an idiot.
