Chadiha settting the record straight about Taylor on ESPN

I have talked to 12 people about this and only 2 are surprised that something like this happened.

One of my coworkers (a Bucs fan) actually called ST a dumbass for going to his house after it was broken into. WTF??? It was SEAN TAYLOR'S HOUSE, he can go there anytime he damn well feels like it! Don't blame Sean, blame the worthless waste of DNA that shot him. I hope they find the corksucker who did this and fry him...or better yet, lock him in a room with the Redskins' defense. :smashfrea

Wilbon is just misinformed and flat out wrong. I heard Taylor's lawyer on Redskins Radio talk about the 2005 case last night, and it just put the whole case in perspective. But Wilbon saying he wasn't surprised is stunning, especially considering Taylor was gunned down in his own home. This senseless act was stunning to me, and that Kornheiser and Wilbon were not shocked was weird to me. These are local guys, but they too seem to have bought in to the media hype around Sean. Kudos to Jeffrey Chadiha at ESPN.com.

Not really. They live here and work here but their hearts are elsewhere. Kornheiser is from New York and Wilbon is from Chicago. Their interest in the Redskins is professional only.

I didn't hear Cowherd today, but yesterday, before Sean had passed, I thought his tone was entirely inappropriate.

You know what pisses me off? How they keep bringing up the late hit fines he got. He was a safety, one who played the game with abandon. Players like that get fined. When they bring up Mr. Republican charity golf tournament champion John Lynch do they feel the need to mention all the times he has been fined? It's as if they think Sean's whole purported connection to the ghetto was even evidenced in his play.

A young man is murdered and I can't think of anything less revelant then uniform violations from two years ago.......

Yeah, I just saw the thing on ESPN about his life and career and after they noted how good he was they just went off listing all the bad things he has done in his career, despicable.

I don't care for Cowherd's ways but what's with the Mr. Republican Charity reference?

My point is that Lynch is a clean cut white guy so the media doesn't feel the need to bring up the multiple late infractions he has incurred over the years. With Sean they do, even in death, and it's as if they are suggesting that his "rough" background was even evidenced in his penchant for illegal plays. My position is that the hardest hitting safeties tend to get fined, it's the nature of the position. I guess I am just struggling to understand why that is important to discuss at this point.

Understand?

I suppose so

This man died defending his home, his child, and his fianance. He died the way any man could hope for. He sacrificied his own life for his family. He will be in heaven. We will get to see him some day. It is really sad to see someone go though.




You know, Mister ArtMonkforhalloffame07 man, of all that I have read on this site, I have to say that this is the most thoughtful, sincere and touching thing I have come across. My brother woke me up at 8:15 this morning to tell me about ST and I did not cry until reading your thoughts.

His shoes are ones that are almost impossible to fill, ball carriers feared him and any good quarterback out there was looking for him on the field. ST skill is what I consider our defensive version of Tom Brady....everything he does looks effortless and almost natural, and unfortunately a skill that is very hard to come by. Who gives a shit about his past when its only the NOW that matters. If one were to judge a person I would hope they would focus on what matters most, family. To me, it sounds like Sean is a hero....one that I hope that his daughter will be proud of.

I hope that I have been able to express my thoughts the way I wanted to. I know my prayers are with his family and his close friends and team members. God Bless
