I have no emotional attachment to the young man, but I'm sorry to hear he died.

I also think that you might be the biggest dipshit to ever post on this board. Congratulations, that's quite an accomplishment.

S to the mother ****ing T. Sean Taylor baby. What a loss. That guy had some serious game.

My toughts and prayers are with the Taylor and Redskin family. Its always troubling to see a young man die young in the prime of his career.

While I don't think it was in good taste for CoMoChief to make the commnet he did this morning, its not as if Taylor hasn't been in trouble before, but it is also important to know that those charges were dropped.

Oh....if Taylor had chopped up a home intruder....I'd have thought he was well within his rights to protect his family. Unlike Mcann, Jettio and co, I think he had that right.

Its really unfortunate that the home owner got the worst end in this situation. Anyone should be safe while sleeping in their own home.

My condolences to his family. In this situation, it is a tragedy that the child no longer has a productive father in his life.

I hope they catch the guilty and they ride the lightening.

RIP to Sean Taylor and his family. This is truly a tragic event and I personally hope they catch the mother****er and string him up and have him swing from a tree

This is sad ....... RIP Mr.Taylor.

I find it more than coincidental that a breakin a week prior to his shooting while no one was home, and left a knife on his bed ?

Murder ?

RIP. Very bad news, this.

And, I agree. This is a strange story.

What are all of you going to do if you find out that he was killed by a rival gang member and Sean wasn't really cleaning his life up? You guys put WAY too much stock into what some idiot reporter and/or cop are making up so that the story has some meat on it.

Let's be realistic. How often does someone have their house broken into, the perps enter an occupied bedroom, fire two shots, then leave? I haven't read anything that claimed there was anything missing from the house. I'm quite sure it happens on rare occasions, but come on.

This is tragic. Most of Sean Taylor's life has been, and a good deal of it has been self inflicted. It's sad that the guy died, it's sad that his little girl will grow up without him. However, some people should probably can the rhetoric until there is a better idea of what went on, otherwise you could wind up looking pretty stupid.

Whether the young man was a thug or not, this is a sickening story. If you aren't safe in your own home, ....

What an incredible shame. RIP ST

I don't know if he was cleaning up his life or not but IMHO this sounded like a planned hit.

RIP.
Condolences to his family, team mates, and fans of the Skins.

stevieray · 11-27-2007, 08:40 AM

another senseless death....

I'm confident his purpose went way beyond playing football.

Prayers to the family...

..as a guy who lost his Dad at a young age, I truly feel for his daughter.

A planned hit would probably end with slugs finding better targets, one would think. I don't know of many hit-men who are satisfied putting one in the leg.

My thinking is that someone broke into his house a week ago, didn't steal anything and left a knife on his bed probably to send a message.

Then this person breaks in and shoots him and leaves and doesn't take anything that we know of.

Also Cochise posted that said "ESPN said they cut the phone lines."

I don't know about you but it sounds like a hit to me.

I agree that most normal hit-men are much better shooters and I suspect this was a low level thug and was probably crapping his pants the whole time.
