i dont think he was trying to disrespect Taylor by starting this thread.
The fact remains that while everyone will miss Sean, most of us only knew him as a football player- more specifically a Redskins Football player (the reason why we are all member of this site)- so asking about he salary cap ramifications, while at face value may seem crass, is relevant.
I also mean no disrespect when writing this... I also think it may be a means of coping for some people to talk about team ramifications...

To say these type of post are out of line is not really fair to the person who wondered how this would effect us as a team. He was a football player and thats how I have known ST and become a fan of his. Even with this tragic death people will have questions to how it will effect the team that ST loved. Everyone has different ways of dealing with these types of things so lets not be to hard on someone who has questions like these. I know I will miss him out on the field and cannot help but wonder how we will ever find another player to take over for him. If you noticed I did not say replace because we can never do that.

I agree we know him as football player. I love the guy for what he did on the field but say I know him as a person would be a insult to his family.
I don't think this thread is inapproiate. This is how his death will affect us, we lost a hero that helped our team win. =(

At first I thought the thread was in bad taste, but it actually gets me thinking about something different than my deep sadness and sorrow for ST.......it kinda changes the subject for a few moments

ok. we all are intitled our opinions and i think it is too early to care about the salary cap. this year is already over half way over. how about a thread asking who is going to take his roster spot?

As a football player Taylor well be very hard to replace. Cap or no!!!! Not many players in college or a free agent will fill his spot!!! In just looking at it in a fooball way this is going to take years to over come!

Sorry - I did not mean to disrepect Taylor, his family, the team and any Redskin fans. I actually regretted posting this right after I submitted it.
Rest in Peace Sean Taylor and my condolences to his family, Redskins players/coaches/team and fans across the world.

I don't think this thread is inappropriate. The players have to somehow figure out how to play this weekend, so it's not off base to mention this. There has to be some clause somewhere that grants relief for this kind of situation.

I know you didn't mean any disrespect and it's a fair question. As I pointed out, I thought the same thing. But, in all honesty, I snapped back and said who cares given that we just lost the guy a few hours ago. I didn't mean to kill the thread.

I don't think anyone is disrespecting Bill B, just not sure this is the proper time. Anyway, I think we've all had this thought or a variant of it cross our minds, immediately followed by 2 minutes of cursing at ourselves for being so shallow.
