What’s so hard about raising the debt ceiling? Hondo blew the roof right off his over the weekend, losing 7 straight, with the last three coming yesterday with the Rangers, Angels and Metamucils.

Hondo hears it wasn’t just the money that caused Plaxico Burress to pick the Jets over the Giants; there was also the Coughlin-aggravation issue. Plax decided he needed more of that like he needed another hole in his leg . . . And, of course, another deciding factor was that Burress also would like to win another Super Bowl, which, as everyone knows, is guaranteed with Rex and the Gang . . . Emailer Ron Perri points out that “Plaxico has become the latest member of Chain Gang Green.”
