Sean Taylor Charged with Aggravated Assault

While these problems with ST are getting really old, really fast, I do agree that we should wait this thing out and not overreact.

Agreed, if he is found guilty, he may have breeched his contract; so we could get some $$ back that way too. I want to see how this plays out; but Sean Taylor is really high up on my shit list right now

He's making the Desmond Howard, Heath Shuler picks look good right now.

The Redskins have made a (non)statement:

"We have just been made aware of a potential situation in Miami regarding Sean Taylor. The representatives for Taylor are keeping us informed as to the developments of the situation. There is nothing we can add to the process at this time."

Here's the latest from ESPN:

Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor, described as a "person of interest" in an assault case, turned himself in to Miami-Dade County police on Saturday, ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reported. Taylor has been charged with aggravated assault with a firearm, a felony, and simple battery.

This is a disaster for the team whether or not he did it. I'm reserving judgment on him until the case develops further. But, as I said, it's still a disaster for the team.

I guess we know who wasn't listening when Gibbs said don't embarrass the Redskins

So we've probably lost ST for the season (regardless of whether he's innocent/guilty). Now the 2004 defense returns without Taylor, Pierce, or Smoot. What does this mean for our defense?

I know we should hold out judgement until all the facts are provided, but this is just depressing. Probably the most phsyically gifted player the team has drafted in god knows how long and he contiously makes completely idiotic decisions that get him in legal trouble and/or ridiculed by the media. I'm just absolutely dumbfounded by Taylor and his knack for always getting himself into hot water with acts that even people with a low level of intelligence would know not to do. :banghead:

Are we sure that we have lost Taylor for the season? I'm hoping not and I am hoping this situation wakes him up - I betcha, though, his talking points for a new contract just went out the window. Hopefully his career hasn't went out the window with them.

man o man i can't believe this sh**. my favorite player is looking like the stupidest player in the nfl. it is like a bad dream that i wish i could wake up from. im struggling with a job situation right now and he is getting paid millions and he still want fo right. if i had half of his money i wouldn't do anything of that nature. mistakes are mistakes though hopefully he will learn from this and become a better person and a player.
