Whither Plax

Plaxico Burress has been benched for the start of today's game against Pittsburgh. Apparently he missed some therapy appointments (we can only assume they were physical therapy appointments). Anyway, it's hard to understand what is going on here. Plax got his big deal and his legs are finally healthy, but now his championship level effort and commitment are just not there these days. And when they are not there, he cannot help the Giants. It will be interesting to see what Hixon does in is place.
