I was at work when I learned about it, about 5 minutes away from clocking out. Then my boss came up to me and was like, Sean Taylor just died. At first I was kinda in shock, I was like, no way why you gotta play like that, you know? That shit ain't funny. I said that because he was a pretty big Redskins hater and I wouldn't put anything past him. But after I clocked out and I was driving home I put it on 980 and they were talking about it.
I just started tearing up while I was driving home and then as soon as I got home I started watching NFLN and looking at things online. I was still in shock for at least two days, my friends/coworkers kept talking and checking on me and I didn't want to talk to nobody and I was pretty depressed after that. The Youtube videos helped, and I got a little semblance of closure from watching his funeral. When I think about him, I always remember these words that one of the prominent speakers at his funeral said, and what he said was to celebrate his life and memories, and the things he taught us, instead of always thinking about how young he was and everything else he could've achieved.
