Stephen Colbert's Take On The Plaxico Burress Incident
Stephen Colbert Has An Interesting Take On Man-Gun Relationships, As It Relates To The Man Named Plaxico

For all of you out there who may already be sick of the constant Plaxico coverage, I apologize in advance. But sometimes, a story comes along that is just too good to be true. This is one of them, and as a result, this story probably won't go away too soon.

Stephen Colbert has always been a favorite of mine, and his Colbert Report on Comedy Central is definitely must-watch TV. Much like everyone else, he has addressed the ridiculous Plaxico Burress incident involving Plaxico shooting himself in the leg with a Glock that he had tucked into his sweatpants while in a nightclub.

As usual, Stephen's take on it is a bit different from (and better than) everyone else's. Check it out.

And if you live in Atlanta, do be careful around the mountain lions on the subway.

Plaxico would be carrying the gun to protect himself from Wayne Brady.

That seems to be the consensus but I'm still in the Stewart camp. I realize Colbert is a parody of Bill O'Reilly, but he's still goes way too far over the top. He's good in small portions but if I were to watch an entire episode my eyes would roll completely back in my head. He's really corny.

I still love Jon Stewart, but after a while I realized the reason why I loved the show was because of Steve Carrell, Stephen Colbert, Lewis Black, etc.  The corespondents now on there arent that good, imo.

Yeah, that's fair. I like the British guy though.

I prefer Stewart's take on this, mostly for the "Jon Stewart Touches Kids" and "Our Little Secret" graphics. 

Both guys are hilarious though.  Definitely one of the best hours in television.
