The New York Giants today signed former Steelers receiver Plaxico Burress, generally considered the top wide receiver in the free agent market.
When I thought maybe Burress would be signing with the Vikings, it reinforced my longtime plans to name my first-born son “Plaxico.” But now that he’s signed with a conference rival, I suppose I have to cross him off the list. Oh well, should it be necessary years from now to name my son after an NFL player/personality, there’s always Antwaawn, Aeneas, Laveranues, L'Roi, Tebucky, Marvcus, or Norv.
