For those of you who dont know what happened, heres the link to the espn article -[link]- He was a hell of a player, and the reason hes getting more press coverage than guys like Darrent Williams and Marquese Hill is because he was a future star, and that is an understatement. Im curious to see Fetus' response, as he got to watch him on a weekly basis. |

Yes, I am a huge Skins fan. Being born in D.C, and living in VA for the vast majority of my life means that I bleed burgundy and gold. Joe Gibbs is a god!. The murder of Sean Taylor is a tragedy. He had all the right tools to become one of the greatest safetys in the game, and was already one of the most feared safetys. More importantly, however, is the tragic fact that he was a very young 24 years of age, and he is survived by his girlfriend and 18 month old child. He loved pwning.

Yea, i heard that he was one of the best safteys there was. They also said that he got fined a lot for like hard hits. It is sad that he has died b/c he was only 24 years old and leave the family behind. They also said it might be related to the roberry that happened sometime ago (think it was a few months). | ||

Damn that's really sad, right when he got a baby girl only 18 months old, too... He was a kickass safety also. R.I.P. man, you will be missed. |

Yah the bullet went through the upper thigh and into the lower abdomen severing some major artery that is "very difficult to repair". Tragic man... fuckin sucks to watch talent be destroyed. |

I gotta say this, and, like Fetus, living in VA most of my life I think I can get away with this being geoteamfanatical and all... Sean Taylor was a thug if there every was one on the Skins. At 24 years old he racked up some impressive criminal proby time and NFL fines (05/06 playoffs...Michael Pittman...need I say more?  ).But let's not blow things out of proportion... he was no Pacman Jones  Seriously, Sean Taylor was a dirty dude but he took care of business on and off the field. Regardless of his thugish antics I must say that his talent will be missed, and that his intensity and work ethic in the secondary was going to be legendary in the NFL.Guns sux0rs. Throw touchdowns (and interceptions if your team is on D!), not bullets. |

No what really sucks, it seems like the guy was finally getting his life on track, with his daughter and everything. It's a shame to see it happen to a good player, who was finding himself. So much for second chances to everyone. RIP |

Sad story. He did get into trouble but all the stories were about him finally starting to grow up and mature. It's sad to hear that he leaves a family behind and it's a devastating loss to the Redskins as he had a lot of talent. The only part of the story that I've heard so far was that he went outside of his room in his house with a machete. I would have hoped that he had a gun in the house for instances just like that. Someone breaking in, especially after a series of recent break-ins, is probably going to be carrying. Bringing a knife to a gunfight sucks. It's just a sad story independent of all the trouble he may have been in. Hopefully PD gets a break in the case, makes an arrest, and gets a conviction. |
