RIP Shawn Taylor

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2007-12-01 · 30 posts
Too new to have a link with an article but he apparently died this morning sometime.

I hate to say it but karma is a bitch. I am a big UM fan and I remember all the big hits he put on players while at UM. But this guy was trouble and he liked to hang with a bad crowd. Apparently 8 days ago, his house was broken into and they ransacked the place. Someone left a large kitchen knife on his bed. That should have been a sign to get a guard, security or something. Anyway, RIP Sean Taylor, 24 years old is WAY TOO FREAKING YOUNG to leave this earth.



*****Correction on the title thread, it is Sean, not Shawn**** At this point who cares right?

Actually he did not hang with a bad crowd and was a victim of a home robbery/shooting. At the time of his death he was with his girlfriend and child.

He was a great player and and even better Redskin, Taylor will truly be missed

Actually, he was the "BAD CROWD". Read a little more about this story and you will see that he was targeted for some reason. here is a little history for you.

Taylor Faces Charges of Assault
Redskins Safety Is Released After Posting Bond

By Jason La Canfora

Monday, June 6, 2005; Page E01

Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor posted bond and was released from police custody at 11:32 Saturday night after surrendering to authorities and being charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm, a felony, and one count of simple battery, a misdemeanor, according to police and detention center reports.


He also was fined by the NFL for spitting on another player either last year or the year before. The guy was not an angel. I am certainly not saying he deserved to die but this was no random shooting, he pissed someone off IMO.


http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/01/09/AR2006010900949.html

Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor was fined $17,000 by the NFL yesterday for spitting on Tampa Bay running Michael Pittman during Saturday's playoff game, league sources said. Taylor will not be suspended for the team's NFC semifinal game in Seattle on Saturday.


Whats amusing about this incident is who he spit on. Pittman was arrested for hitting his wife if I am not mistaken.

Here, if you think he is an angel, this link may change your mind.

Like i said, that still does not mean that he deserved to die but karma is a bitch. When you hang with a bad crowd OR you are a bad person and continue to do bad/stupid things, things will catch up with you.





The last time Sean Taylor did anything bad was in 2005. Get over it, he was a changed person and a changed player. The only perspective non-Redskins fans get is whatever ESPN tells them about the player. I'll be willing to bet none of you ever met the guy, I did. He was nothing but friendly and nice. People like to make him out to be some kind of thug/gangster that he may have seemed to be in 2004/2005, but he really wasn't.

I actually know about ALL that which happened when?? Of course none of the above means he is with a bad crowd, none of the above means he was a bad person and none of the above means he deserves to die. Amazing thing is how someone can take another persons death and try to turn it into a debate about that persons character especially over simplistic crap that happened years ago, wow.

Also, since you seem to want to post half the story to try and prove a point, what happened when Taylor went to court for that arrest??????

"The charges stem back to a confrontation that happened last June, as he had a few all terrain vehicles stolen from him. Once he had found the individuals that lifted the property from him, there was a fight to which Taylor allegedly shoved and struck one of the thieves. It was also stated that Taylor brandished a firearm, yet this was excluded from the proceedings, as a result of the No Contest plea. Taylor denied having a gun, and this is irrelevant to the case."

"With a plea of No Contest, Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor manages to avoid seeing the slammer on two felony, and two misdemeanor charges involving assault."

He most certainly hung with the bad crowd. Look at his police record. Is that the good crowd?
Obviously he deserved to die


RIP Sean and condolences to the family.

Didn't you know? When a Texas vigilante confronts and kills thieves, he is a hero. When a black athlete confronts and shoves thieves, he is thug life. Geeze, everyone knows that.
Karma is a bitch.

I think civility was lost when someone suggested 'karma is a bitch' at the death of a human being, but ok.

You're being a tad sensitive, methinks. That is a thought commonly voiced whenever someone with a "less than saintly" history passes away.

Why are you defending this guy? Im curious.
For the same reason you are disrespecting and insulting a dead man you know nothing about?
Actually not defending more than posting the FULL and truthfull story on his past. Of course meeting the guy, watching him play every week and being a BIG Redskins fan helps.

Oh, and I am waiting for that police record you claim exists.

You are defending the guy. He wasnt MR Goody Good. He didnt deserve to die. No one I have seen post has implied that. But the guy hung around the wrong crowd IMO and that is Karma. And I did read your post. Im sorry but the guy was trouble both on and off the field. He was certainly gettting better compared to a few years ago, but things like that can come back and bite you in the ass.

NO family should have to suffer that loss. But this is very fishy IMO and I bet if the investigators dig around will find out that this is more than what it appears.

He whooped up on someone who stole his property and that is considered trouble, hanging around the wrong crowd?? Wow, things have really changed, I always thought that was a good thing (theif getting their *** whooped).

Oh, still waiting for the police record.
I've seen enough.
