Football Players get Vacation During the Season?

Missing Cell- Giants WR Plaxico Burress said he couldn’t find his cell phone in time to call the Giants to alert them that he was taking a vacation early this week. Come on guy. Send an e-mail, use a land line (I think those still exist), send a telegram, or use the pony express. This is 2008 and that is a lame excuse. I came up with better ones when I got in trouble in the third grade.

Don't Players get like a 6 month vacation each year...at a minimum?

it all depends on how badly you want to be a winner in this league.

Except even he

as good as he is, is susceptible to the insane gene, evidently. He is a BEAST and I’m glad we have him too, but Fast Eddie doesn’t need to be mimicking his off-the-field habits…
