"Sean's Gone" - Echo '08

Great piece, Om. I was very moved when I read it last year, and it still rings true.

I too couldn't believe it. And in a way, I still do not. It's just something I cannot process, even today. What a horrible tragedy.

Rest in Peace, Sean. We all miss you.

Well written, Om. You summed up the gamut of thoughts and emotions felt that day very, very well. I am still so sad.

DarkKnight, you said it too. None of us actually knew him, yet losing him cut so deeply. I wept. Literally wept. I can say without shame that I truly LOVE the Redskins. I feel their losses and victories emotionally. I relate to the personalities of players and coaches. The Skins are a big part of my life. And losing Sean felt like losing a family member. I was devastated.

Every morning when I get dressed, I see my 21 jersey hanging in closet. It wasn't intentional, but it gives me some perspective every time I see it.

God bless you, Sean.

Thank You, I only said what came from my heart, I too love the Redskins with everything I got, when they loose, my week is sh*tty, but when I look on the field, and I see, Landry playing where he played, I am thinking, this kid is nice, and where lucky to have him, but Sean would have murdered that WR, or TE or RB, I bet Brandon Jacob's wouldn't have ran Sean Over.....anyway, this Sunday I will Celebrate at game time, when the game kick off, if everyone will join me, (at Kickoff Time) of holding up a can of your favorite beverage to the best got-damn, hard hitting, fearing Mo-fo to ever lace up......and saying "You the Man". I think thats away we all can celebrate together, to those who dont live in the city or can't make it to the game..........

Great stuff guys. Powerful. I tend to express myself more visually.
I painted a tribute painting to Sean shortly after he died. Thought you might appreciate it.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

That painting is so very excellent.

This is a great thread it needs more love from the warpath nation.........share or comment?

Me to. I NEVER thought it would cost him his life. I thought he would be out the rest of the season, and next season, he would report to camp..............

What really screwed me up was that everything seemed okay when i went to sleep and i woke up to the breaking news of him passing..i Still use him on last years madden
