It appears Plaxico Burress has now shot himself in the foot. That was a cheap joke, but not cheap as evading your taxes! Am I right, Plaxico?

I actually feel sorry for Burress, it appears he’s filing taxes to the very revenue-happy eastern seaboard and with firsthand East Coast living experience myself, I know how badly it bleeds your bank accounts. But do you think Twitter offered any empathy? Of course not. As expected, the twitterverse took a few “shots.”
Wow, looks like Plaxico Burress really shot himself in the foot with the whole tax evasion thing. #NailedIt #NFL @PlaxicoBurress — Matthew Hogan (@MattNHLHogan) April 30, 2015
If your name rhymes with Tax, you might find yourself more compelled to pay them? or Maybe that’s just me http://t.co/u3omkVUK9V via @SInow

Heard MSNBC about to give Plaxico Burress a job since he doesn’t pay his taxes either.
