Former Giants receiver plaxico Burress strolled out of jail Monday wearing a Philadelphia Phillies cap on his head and a big smile on his face after 20 months behind bars. "It's a beautiful day," Burress said as he left the medium-security Oneida Correctiona Facility in Rome, NY. "It's a beautiful day to be reunited with my family. I want to go home and spend some quality time with them." Wearing shades, Burress thanked God and "all my fans all around the world for the thousands of letters, for their unwavering support." Asked about a possible return to pro football, Burress answered, "If and when everything gets settled, when they get back on the field, I'll be ready." Then Burress climbed into a black Range Rover and headed for the Turning Stone Casino and Result to meet his wife, Tiffany, his son, Elijah, and a daughter, Giovanna, who was born while he was behind bars. He was expected to board a flight to his home outside Ft. Lauderdale, FL by 11 a.m. Burress, 33, spent a lot of time running and doing strength exercise with an eye to returning to the NFL while doing time for a gun charge, his agent,Drew Rosenhaus, said.Hmmmmm. Wonder what team he is going to next? I'm quite certain that he will never return to the Giants after they released him.
