not a happy holiday for the Burress Clan

It keeps getting worse for the Giant’s embattled wide receiver Plaxico Burress. Authorities have seized weapons and ammunition from his Totowa, NJ home after a recent search of the place turned up the goodies. The New York Post has reported the popo took a 9-mm handgun, a rifle and ammunition for three other guns, but Burress’s attorney Benjamin Brafman has only copped to the rifle.

While it is not illegal to own a registered gun in New Jersey, it would be a bit of a problem if they were not.

"I believe it was registered, but we're looking into that now," Brafman said. "I'm not informed at this time that he is facing additional charges."

Yeah, you may want to check up on that. And by the way, where is Antonio Pierce? Hasn’t he become the official caretaker of Burress’s weapons collection? Plus, if you were just arrested on a weapon’s related offense, wouldn’t you want to get rid of any other incriminating evidence before the popo knocks on your door with a warrant? I mean when you have a house full of drugs you flush it down the toliet before you open the door, right?

Also found in the popo sweep was a suitcase full of cash. So with the guns, ammunition and cash, was Plax planning on taking a permanent vacation somewhere? Or was he just preparing his family for his court ordered trip to a very special Holiday Inn?

Watch out Plax, because the popo are on your tail!
