Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

Sean Taylor's trial is set for January 17th. There have already been two continuances, so it's unlikely that it would be delayed again. Is anyone scared about missing him?

Well does he have to be there? More than likely the trial will last a few weeks.

Yes he will have to be there. Actually, the trial will likely be only a few days.

Fortunately, a judge may be more sympathetic to another continuance because he won't want to hurt the entire team and Taylor himself, by going ahead with the trial, before Taylor has been found guilty.

I'm sure that his lawyers, or Dan Snyder's lawyers, will see to it that the 17th is ruled out. We saw how much he was missed today after he was taken out of the game.

Damn, but he played GREAT when he was in there, didn't he?

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

He better not make that mistake again for 2 reasons. He hurt the team in more ways than one today, and he may still hurt the team with the legal situation. He'll also hurt himself if he keeps doing things like spitting at people because his character will come up in court and doing something dumb and obscene on national TV won't help him at all.

I'd say he needs therapy, but would that mess with his game?

How do you know it is unlikely to be continued? You a lawyer involved with the case?

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

Does anyone actually think that Taylor spit on that player's face? I watched the replays, but it didn't look like it to me.

Does he miss the next game for being ejected? or is that college?

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

You couldnt tell, he was running his mouth as well as the buc player... Also shouldnt the Buc player get a fine for hitting him?

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

maybe he was just spitting and accidentally hit him. football players spit on the field.

They're were talking like he might get suspended for it, which would be a huge hit to the defense in the the Seattle game. It kind of pisses me off that he was pretty well behaved all season, then acts like a dumb f--k in the playoffs. Hopefully this incident won't tarnish his bright future too much.

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

i honestly didn't see anything. I do however think it is was possible that while yelling a little bit of spit flew out his mouth. I just didin't see anything. You got to be a stone cold mother ****er to spit on someone and not even move. His head didn't jerk forward. Spit on something go ahead in anger. your head has to move. it has to. But Sean is one stonned cold mother ****er

For the same reason Jamal Lewis got to wait till the offseason to serve his 4 months. Judges love football.

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

If Smith didn't miss a game for getting ejected, I can't see how they do it to Taylor. He nearly cost us the game for that stupidity (if indeed it was a deliberate act) and I think JG and GW will punish him plenty in any case. Big fine coming his way.

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

i see no way that the trial will being on the 17th, but if it did, we would be SOL. Taylor is one player that we really need!

I think you misread my statement. I was calling him out for saying it would NOT be continued when I would bet it probably would.

The trial has already been postponed twice. Judges don't like to grant 1, 2, 3 continuances for a trial since they are supposed to wrap up cases as quickly as possible. However, if you would have read my subsequent post you would have seen that I said that the judge [I]may[/I] grant one.

Fined by the league and I wouldn't be suprised to see if he's benched for the first series or so by the coaches..

Re: Sean Taylor's Trial Set for Jan. 17th
 

The ref was right there you kina have to give him the benifit of the doubt but i didnt see any visable spitting like robbie alomar but none the less that cant be good for his trial.
