Plaxico Burress will be in court today, but only to request more time to work out a plea deal with the DA. His attorney, Benjamin Brafman, said through e-mail, “He will be there, but it will be an adjournment only.”

Don’t forget, that in order to play this year, Plax has to weather not only the DA’s punishment for the charges, but also NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who can step in and hand out a suspension after the conclusion of the legal proceedings if he deems it necessary.
