It this all bad luck and coincidence or are there underlying issues here? I heard he was a good kid with a great work ethic

OOUUCCHH!!!

I didn't know that little fact. Let's hope that's the only thing there careers will ever have in common.

Bergman14 · 07-12-2004, 06:53 PM

thats a good point, maybe when I read that he had a great work ethic, it was just character inflating nonsense, but i sure hope not, I thought and still think he could be the key to the defense

Bergman14 · 07-12-2004, 07:06 PM

that was in the article, and actually after looking over it again, it seems as if Taylor's situation was not as bad, he rushed right back to San Diego when everyone figured out what was going on. Here is my question, if it is a rookie symposium, and he is there the first day, doesnt someone tell him about the fine? what the hell are they doing there? (notice they are at a resort and spa)

Sounds to me like this kid better get off his rear end and get with the program. Gibbs and the crew will be ticked if he holds out, and if he doesn't get an agent soon, he'll be holdling out!!! :frusty:

SkinsRock · 07-13-2004, 01:39 PM

Ok, lets say he is being young and immature and not making great decisions (he is)....Who better to knock him into shape (mentally) than Gibbs and company???

He will be fine...

Skins fan 44 · 07-13-2004, 05:10 PM

He should be fine but come on. Get serious and find an agent and get signed. Granted he could miss the first week or two and be OK, but he could be that much better if he is in on time. Regardless we ought to get a pool to see how much sooner he will be signed then KWII.

skinsfanthru&thru · 07-14-2004, 12:57 AM

atleast he's not in as much trouble as a former teammate of his from Miami, Antrel Rolle.

SKINSnCANES, help us out here, what is going on with Taylor??

I want to give him the benefit of the doubt for now, but I have to be honest and say I'm a little concerned.

That Guy · 07-14-2004, 04:49 PM

i wish he'd say something, give some sort of public response... anything... he's supposed to be better than KWII/poston, but right now i'm having some doubts

MTK · 07-14-2004, 07:51 PM

So far he's giving the impression he's a bit of a headcase, I really hope this isn't Westbrook part II.
