R.I.P. Sean Taylor

24 Years old. He was a hell of a ball player both at The U and with the Skins, but had a lot of off-field troubles and even though he seemed to mellow and mature after his daughter’s birth, it’s possible his past associations are what led to the attack that ultimately took his life.

After struggling all day yesterday, Redskins safety Sean Taylor died this morning from his wounds after a shooting in his home Monday.

Taylor “did not make it through the night;” his femoral artery had been severed, and the bleeding “could not be stopped, just curbed.”

This is the second Hurricane shot to death in two years. Just tragic. To me it doesn’t look like a random act of violence – the previous burglary 8 days prior found a knife left on his bed. Imagine what might have happened if his girlfriend and 18 month old daughter were there alone. Anyway, as KSK says “let’s remember Taylor for what he was between the lines: namely a fearsome, ball-hawking hit machine that left a swath of crumpled receivers in his wake.” To that end:
