"New York Giants GM Gerry Reese may be willing to welcome Plaxico Burress back, but coach Tom Coughlin said he's not willing to do that yet, according to several reports. "I'm not ready to say that," Coughlin said during an interview on N.Y. radio station WFAN. "We need to sit down and think about it and talk about that and to see what the circumstance might be." Coughlin and Burress were not getting along even before the receiver accidentally shot himself in the leg November 29, Newsday reports (NBCSports.com)."
There is a part of me that completely agrees with Coughlin, but the other part says they need him. Still, I have to side with Coughlin. I know they only went 2-4 when Burress was suspended, but I really like the message Coughlin sends to his team. Basically, "If you are going to act like an asshole, then you are out of here". You have to respect that. He should probably sit down with Burress, and try to work out something, and have a really short leash, but I can't argue with Coughlin if he just says "fuck it, he's gone".
Prediction: They bring him back because the GM wants him back, but Coughlin rides him so hard he demands a trade.
