| Re: Sean Taylor Magnetic Car Ribbon Quote:
For the past 2 years, I've been a diehard Redskins fan because of Sean Taylor. Before that, I'd switch teams every year, not sure which was my favorite. With his passing, I feel as if I have lost my father again. (He died October 31, 1998) I know how it feels to lose a loved one and I never had a fund raising type of thing like this for my family. My mom had to go back to college because without a college education, she wouldn't have been able to afford the house we used to live in. I know first hand how hard this experience must be for his family. I decided to fund raise because I'd like that chance to reach out to his family and give them my support. I felt I had no support when I lost my father, thus sending me into severe depression (which I recently have overcome). | |

| Re: Sean Taylor Magnetic Car Ribbon Thank you very much. I would have never been able to do it without my current girlfriend. And I plan on staying a Skins fan since now we have 13 men on the field. 11 Defensive players, Sean Taylor, and the crowd. |

| Re: Sean Taylor Magnetic Car Ribbon Just to be frank for a second, fundraising over the internet is always going to raise a few eyebrows for a variety of reasons. None of which I care to list, but trust me it's a long list. I think if you really want to move these ribbons in honour of Sean, doing so in person would lend some credibility to your cause. Just to give you an idea. Go to your local Pop Warner football games, if they're still playing, and start there. Lots of young athletes look up to Sean Taylor. (Wow, I still can't believe he's not with us) Ditto high school and college. Also if you know someone that either manages or owns a restaurant or local convenience store, you can simply prop them up on the counter or behind the counter and advertise them. I bet people would snap them up on the way out the door. Just an idea. |

Thank you for the ideas. I already an posting an ad in my college student union. I also have another friend asking around if anyone would want one. (No charge of shipping because we can meet them somewhere). And one question, I'm not sure of what are considered Pop Warner football games. Are they like high school, middle school, etc football games? | |

| Re: Sean Taylor Magnetic Car Ribbon Wow... I didn't realize that... I knew his father was a police chief... not a wealthy job, but not one that usually causes someone to struggle with... but I did not know that about her other grandfather.

On that note, since Taylor was more than likely the next big name Skin to renegotiate his contract, I wouldn't be suprised to see him and Drew work out something to sweeten the pot for Sean's family. It's a shame this isn't a football related death because I think that takes the Redskins off the hook. | |

| Re: Sean Taylor Magnetic Car Ribbon The reason I'm focused on the bottom line is because I'm just proving my point that obviously the money isn't what I want, considering I lose money until I sell so many. |
