Hip-hop promoter and Man and Wife cohost Fatman Scoop was interviewed yesterday by the New York sports talk host Mike Francesa concerning New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress’ (above) recent self-inflicted gunshot wound and subsequent arrest. What resulted was roughly 10 minutes of radio gold, as Fatman educated Francesa’s audience of disgruntled Mets fan about gun culture and athletes.
Pretty much everything Scoop said was worthy of being a yearbook quote, but the highlights include “I don’t care if you caught a touchdown with 35 seconds left in the Super Bowl. If I want your chain, and that means I’m quote unquote gonna eat, I’m gonna take your chain.” The oft-troubled Burress, according to reports, accidentally shot himself in the leg at NY’s Latin Quarter club on Friday night and proceeded to cover it up in the most amusing way possible, telling hospital staff that his name was Harris Smith and that he was shot at an Applebee’s. Burress was arrested yesterday on several felony gun charges. Listen to the entirety of Scoop’s interview here, and as an early Christmas present, please give Fatman a sports radio show. Maybe he can fix the Knicks.
