Plaxico Burress to work for anti-violence programs – AP
Plaxico Burress will work with the National Urban League and Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence after spending nearly two years in prison on a weapon possession charge.
The 33-year-old former New York Giants receiver said yesterday he would be mentored by Magic Johnson and Tony Dungy through the Brady Center. He’ll volunteer with Urban League youth programs and recruit other pro athletes. He says he has “an opportunity to make a difference.”
Burress caught the winning touchdown in the 2008 Super Bowl. Nine months later, his unlicensed handgun accidentally went off in a Manhattan nightclub, striking his thigh.
He was released from prison last Monday. Burress hopes to play in the NFL again, and his agent has spoken with several teams.

Jeter limps off with 2,994 hits, Indians win 1-0 – AP
Derek Jeter limped off the field with a sore right calf four innings after getting his 2,994th hit, and Carlos Carrasco escaped early trouble to pitch the Cleveland Indians past the New York Yankees 1-0 last night.
There was no immediate word on the severity of Jeter’s injury. He was noticeably hurt as he jogged toward first base during a flyout in the fifth and left the game, stalling his pursuit to become the 28th big leaguer to reach 3,000 career hits.
Teammates, fans and even Jeter himself had said it would be nice to achieve the milestone at Yankee Stadium. New York has three games against Texas left on this homestand, and then goes on a six-game road trip to Wrigley Field in Chicago, and Cincinnati.

Sexting scandal inspires Anthony Weiner doll – AP
An online action figure company has jumped on the Anthony Weiner sexting scandal bandwagon with a doll of the New York congressman in two versions: censored and uncensored.
HeroBuilders.com of Oxford, Conn., is offering the “standard” doll for $39.95 and the anatomically correct “for adults only” version for an extra $10.
Both are dressed in a gym shirt and shorts with a label that reads “Tweet This.”
Weiner has acknowledged exchanging messages and photos that ranged from sexually suggestive to explicit with several women online.
Congress on Monday approved a two-week leave of absence for Weiner while he seeks treatment.
The action figure company also makes a plastic Sarah Palin, Barack and Michelle Obama and other talk-of-the-town figures.
Obama on Monday said he’d resign if he were in Weiner’s shoes.
