Report - Plaxico Burress charged with failing to pay taxes

Plax Is In Trouble Again.

News came across today that former New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress has been indicated on charges of failing to pay taxes.

The former receiver, who played a vital role in the Giants run to their third Super Bowl championship in 2007, is no stranger to trouble with the law. He was arrested and convicted on a variety of firearms charges one fateful night in a nightclub when a handgun he was carrying in the waistband of his sweatpants accidentally discharged.

Perhaps it is fitting that Plax is the first person to be charged under a new law regarding paying taxes with the transfer of electronic funds.
