Sean Taylor

In case you haven’t seen it yet, Redskins safety Sean Taylor died this morning after suffering a severed femoral artery from a gunshot during a break-in at his Florida home Monday.
Taylor wasn’t the cleanest safety around, but there were few who were more aggressive. The league fined him repeatedly for illegal hits, and he once spit in an opponent’s face. He also had some off-field problems.
But this incident is not believed related to his off-field issues which, many believe, he put behind him. His teammates and coaches say he was growing up, becoming more responsible.
Would have liked to see how that maturation process would have turned out. He didn’t deserve an early exit like this.
No one does.
Ciao for now.

Don’t be so sure about what the motive is
for this one, Ernie. It seems deliberate and
could well be tied to his “outside” history.
That said, it’s still a shame.
