Redskins Exploiting Sean's Death?

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 01-04-2008, 10:47 AM

A reporter for The News Tribune (a Washington State paper) wrote an article implying that the Redskins are exploiting Sean's death. Nice.

As you will note, the d-bag noted that the Redskins are seeking good luck from a man "who was neither lucky nor charmed." Made my blood boil.

What a turd.

Let the team and players grieve and honor Taylor in whatever way they see fit.

This happened what, 6 weeks ago? And this d-bag is basically telling the team they should just "move on"?

Who does this guy think he is? What an idiot.

This guy was likely never on a team for any extended period of time. It's extremely tough to lose a teammate, especially one that has been around you on the road and the lockerroom for many years like Taylor. This is like losing a spouse since they spent more time with Taylor than they did with thier spouse. Even tougher for guys like Portis and Moss since they played with him in college. Had this guy been someone that regularly played on a traveling team in high school, or even college, he'd know this.

Clare Farnsworth from the Seattle Post-Intelligencer was on First Take this morning to discuss the Seahawks' mentality going into this game, and in his failed attempt to say no one is really giving Seattle a chance said (and I'm very slightly paraphrasing here) "The Seahawks have decided to cancel the game because of Sean Taylor's death...no, but seriously."

F him

Seattle doesn't have a chance?

Lately it seems all the predictions I'm hearing are in favor of Seattle.

I saw that too. I don't know if they are representative of Seattle's feelings, but why say anything? Both individuals are so glib that it really makes me hate the Seahawks with a burning passion. The game just became even more important for me. Hopefully the Skins feel the same way.

The Farnsworth comment really took me back. I almost couldn't believe what I had just heard. That's more than a lack of class. This team is mourning, and playing for their teammate.

Was he trying to be funny? Who knows. It just seemed like the comment came from way out of left field, and was sort of a stab at Bram's meaningful and accurate representation of how this team is feeling.
