im pretty sure the plan was to have them watch films and practice mon tues and wed then they are off until monday. this isnt college where u pick your guys to miss the game when they are playing nochance state. he broke team rules and didnt call anyone to let them know where he was. he deserves to be suspended. one guy isnt bigger than the team

Rosenhaus (paraphrased): "It was a family matter. We feel the suspension is too strong. We will file a grievance."

when will these athletes learn that u just pickup a phone and let the team know where u are. also why couldnt rosenhaus let them know. i would think that he would be the 2nd person they called once plax didnt show up.

Hey Roger, how about doubling Plax's suspension and hitting this weasel with a $500K fine?

Any new info on the possibility of Plax getting suspended longer by the league?

I read last night he could face further punishment from the league for not reporting the domestic disputes. Nothing other than speculation at this point. Still in the air

From a fantasy perspective, what WR will benefit the most in Plax's absence. Toomer, Hixon, or Steve Smith???

Eli is going to distribute the ball more than unusal. I wouldn't be surprised to see Toomer Smith and Hixon with 4-6 cathces each. I think Toomer may see the ball a little more near the end zone.IMO, Boss is the play this week, but he is not a WR so I'm not sure if this helps

I share this opinion to a T.

Is Burress out next week also or was this the end of his suspension?

It should be over.

Prior to the game, I wanted to agreed with this. Now, I'm convinced that Boss is nearly worthless. If the Giants put up 40+ on a team, and Boss only manages 2 catches for 9 yards, that tells me he either can't get open, or he just isn't trusted enough to catch it if he is. Or I suppose it could be that he's actually dropping the targets he does get(didn't watch the game, so not sure how many targets vs. catches he received this week.)
