Sean Taylor - RIP UPDATED

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

Uh, they played Sunday, and sometimes, since they are off on Mondays, players go elsewhere Sunday night and Monday?
You do know the shooting was 1:45 MONDAY morning?

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

If you want to talk to me about how black women disappearing gets no coverage compared to the white Barbie dolls who vanish... yes, that's valid and I think it's a repugnancy in the news biz.

The crap she was spewing ... it wasn't that.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

Tuesday is the players' day off.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

He's been hurt, and apparently he was in Miami to get a second opinion on his injury.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

Because he's rehabbing on his own?

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

My mistake, but since he'd been injured...

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

But the team should be supervising that.
It's their dime, their treatment.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

Bruschi maybe.

Not McDougle.

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

Honestly, targeting an athlete's home on a game day makes a lot of sense. All you need is a schedule and you know the person won't be home. Just might want to check the injury report.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

I'd say it's too bad... but perhaps there would have been even more bloodshed if he hadn't been home.

Very sad for him.

 

Re: Sean Taylor: shooting victim

The oral sex blast had as much place in this thread as a point about how this is looked at differently because he's black.

Read the thread; it's flowing along, people trying to track down news and posting informed speculation about what the prognosis is of such a wound . . . then someone hops in to try to make a racial point out of nowhere. And ironically, just as it is said that a dude like Taylor might always have his past hanging over him, Cowbell shows that Jemele Hill will in some circles always be thought of as someone who might have revaled a little too much on her blog.

Look, let's just deal wih what is known. Sean Taylor is a hell of a football player. Sean taylor has been shot. The bullet hit a key artery. He has been close to death, and would, even if he lives, face a lot of future hardship that may include losing a leg, and will likely not include playing professional football.

Any other bullcrap about his skin color or a columnist's old blog posts just muddies up the works here.
