Nice story. I think most here know its a very tight knit bunch that come out of THE U. Nice way for this young man to pay respect to a fallen alumni.

Giants' first-rounder Kenny Phillips embraces Sean Taylor's number, spirit

Classy move by Phillips to wear #21. I liked his words of praise for Sean. I wish him the best (except when he plays us).

I still just can't believe Sean is gone. A day hasn't gone by that I haven't thought about him.

Yep, very nice thing for Phillips to do in honor of Taylor. I wish him the best of luck in his career but I won't be rooting for him when he plays us.

Schneed10 · 05-11-2008, 11:23 PM

I wish him no luck in his career. I hope he's terrible and looks like Adam Archuleta.

Nice gesture, but he's a Giant guys, come on.

Classy move by Phillips. That's why I'm a fan of the U! Those guys stick together for life! But, sorry Kenny when you're playing us. I hope our guys burn you for the score.

Sean Taylor was quickly on his way to becoming my favorite Redskin of all time. His death devastated me. Any player from his alma mater playing his position and honoring him in that way gets a gold star from me. I don't want to see the guy dominate the Skins of course, but I certainly don't wish Archuleta status on him. Although I do hope he has plenty of Archuleta moments when he's playing against us.

The thing that really hit me was that when I went to bed that night, I heard Taylor would probably pull through -- then woke up to a breaking report that he passed. I couldn't believe it.

How can you say that?? He's crushed just like all of us were when ST was killed. He probably has a closer bond to him then we all did. I wish the guy the luck, except twice a year.

I agree. Great gesture but I hope he is awful. My desire for him to suck is irrelevant to my admiration for the gesture. I can like the guy but hope he blows with a clear mind.

Mattyk · 05-12-2008, 11:26 AM

Nice gesture, hope he represents the number well.

A class act and a stand up dude Phillips!!!

LOL! I think I may have found a new sig....

I don't hope the guy sucks, but that's hilarious.
