Hey Sam, this one from your favorits player!
Lawrence Taylor had his share of run-ins with his coach, and occasionally pushed the boundaries of Bill Parcells' rule book. But he knew there was a line he was never supposed to cross. And he knows that's something Plaxico Burress still has to learn. "You've got to realize that it's all right to be an individual," Taylor told the Daily News Tuesday. "I'm all for being an individual. You do your thing. But you're still not above the team. When it starts to disrupt the team, then you have to revisit it and look at it and see if you're doing it right." Taylor was certainly known for his individuality during his wild days of stalking quarterbacks on some of the greatest Giants defenses. He could be a handful for his coaching staff at times - a fact he's willing to admit - just like Burress is apparently a handful for Tom Coughlin and his staff now. But Taylor insists that the problems he caused and the ones Burress is causing are "totally different," because when LT battled Parcells or his staff, the coaches always won the fight in the end. ------From the NYT

I read it online already, but i totally agree there is a limit to how much crap you can pull!!
Plus i think that since there arent any other troublemakers on the Giants he's gonna straighten out!!
especially cause he loves to play and if he doesn't shape up soon he's gonna be ridin the bench!!
