Plax Teammate Pierce End-Arounds Cops

The New York Giant who was with Plaxico Burress when he shot himself ditched the cops yesterday -- but managed to make it to a paid radio appearance. And that could spell trouble for Antonio Pierce.

Pierce was supposed to meet with cops yesterday, according to reports, but didn't appear, even though NFL officials had promised to bring him to a meeting. They want to question him about what exactly happened at Latin Quarter and the aftermath.

We're told by several sources Pierce blabbed to NFL security after the shooting without a lawyer, which could put the league in a very awkward position when it comes to the cops.

3. another one of these bozos that proves you do not have to have a lot of grey matter to be a pro athlete. he is, like the other dumbass, screwed.. he has committed numerous felonies in the process of disposing of the gun. hopefully, both these gangster ghetto thugs will get what they deserve..

4. Once again the media is wrong. Pierce does not need to talk to the cops. even if he said he would. unless he is being charges or has been served papers as a material witness, then he does not to speak to anyone. Regardless of what the media is reporting. So what he went on his radio interview. it is a weekly job that he gets paid for. The minute he got paid it became a responsibility so he should have done the interview. I freakin hate how tmz tries to cover real stories like their not some joke celeb website.. let the real news handle this...
