Eli Manning, Plaxico Burress still feuding?
The Dirt:
Eli Manning says he has a good relationship with Plaxico Burress. His No. 1 receiver wasn’t talking about it on Wednesday, turning down pleas from the Giants’ public relations staff to talk to the media on the opening day of minicamp.
Burress hasn’t said anything since the Giants were beaten 23-0 by the Carolina Panthers in the opening round of the playoffs.
Held without a catch, Burress waved his hands in frustration several times during the game when he felt he was open and Manning didn’t get him the ball.
The Spin: It’s a little surprising that Tom Coughlin is allowing this to be a story, but other players are minimalizing the problem and passing it off as frustration over a bad game. The Giants’ public relation team would like a comment, but seeing as how they wouldn’t like their own little McNabb -v- Owens, it’s probably best to let it work itself out.
