NY Giants Star Injured by Fireworks

[Jim Jack]

I am seeing all sorts of rumors about this one, but it appears that New York defensive lineman Jason Pierre-Paul has suffered a severe hand injury while playing with fireworks.

Some are saying they saw a U-Haul full of fireworks that belonged to him. Some are saying he has lost some fingers, but I haven't found an article yet that confirms it. If he is really injured because of this, then that is sad. And dumb.

Maybe not as dumb as the guy that shot off something off of the top of his head and died, though.

Seeing now that this injury is not career-threatening. Good.

The Giants pulled their $60 million contract offer off the table.

Oh good grief. Now I'm seeing that a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers actually lost two fingers on July 4. What in the world.

I heard that he lost a finger but is supposed to be able to come back and play. How is that? I admit I've been too busy to actually follow this much.

Making the big bucks seems to have no effect on some people's stupidity levels.

I heard the mom of the guy who blew up his head with fireworks is pushing for some kind of stricter controls................of what??? Stupidity??????
Then there was the dad who killed himself with fireworks on his chest. REALLY????????????

How does the chestnut go? Ya can't fix stupid.
