Sean Taylor Shot in the Thigh (UPDATED 6:54 PM)

It is hard to imagine him in this condition. I think of him as super human and now this. Makes me sad.

wow great news

I have seen numerous posts from Cowboy fans wishing ST the best. Out of curiousity, I hit an Eagles board. It was below worthless. The majority of posters wished him a crippling injury "couldn't happen to a nicer guy" was one post. Death wishes were many and in no way the exception. I was tempted to post but I figured - why bother.

To our opponents who wish this young man and young father well - thanks. To the rest, may karma come and bite you on the ass.

And, of course, to ST, his family and particular his child - my prayers and thoughts.

I went and tried to get on some Eagles sites after you post and it is truly incredible. I am speechless. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since I have seen similar ignorant statements on WashingtonPost.com and even TripleX Radio. I am shocked by the level of discussion. I simply cannot understand wishing death on another human being, or saying "they got what was coming to them." Do these people know Sean Taylor? Have they seen an interview with him? I am continually appalled by Eagles fans, their treatment of their own team, their venom and ignorance to opposing players, and now even their flip statements about the life or death of another person. I am floored. I know some decent Eagles fans (two actually) but clearly the majority of these individuals are truly worthless individuals. What is it about that city?

It is hard to imagine him in this condition. I think of him as super human and now this. Makes me sad.

I was telling Gmanc over text message that this is like Superman getting hurt.

I was reading an eagles board too. Quite a few made jokes and think this is funny. They are saying shit like..." has he died yet"?This is all a big fucking joke to those classless fucks.

Losers, the lot of them...

Hopefully, D'Boyz was responding to the news that he is out of surgery.

J-Dawg

No problem. I like representing my team with class.

Well hopefully our PA announcer calls for a moment of silence before the Steelers/Dolphins game tonight as a moment of prayer. Sean Taylor is a helluva player. I sure don't want to see him go.

I think they will, however, if they don't, you and I will have our own. Here's to an injury free game.

Wow! Absolutely NOT. D'Boyz has been nothing but full of class today from what I have read in prior posts. Maybe you should read before opening mouth?

Comcast is reporting:

He's in the hospital... still in critical condition. In the ICU, his family is being allowed to see him at this point.

According to Richard Sharpstein, ST's Lawyer... It was a break-in.. He was with his GF and his baby. He got up, grabbed a machete, shots were fired in his living room. Two shots were fired. One missed, one severed his femoral artery. The injury is very very bad. His life is still in danger. Doctors are concerned that there could be brain damage. He's still unconscious.

This is the latest from his attorney.

D'Boyz deserves a ban.....go. home.

Based on his previous posts, I believe D'Boys was applauding the apparent and preliminary reports that ST was stabilizing and doing better. He has been classy and concerned and, IMHO, his kind of fan should always be welcomed.
