I understand the curiosity of the media and regular peeps as well to question this crime, but to dwell on the negative reminds me of the Don Henley tune "Dirty Laundry." I just wish everyone would wait for the facts before speculating and making assumptions. We will know the facts when they are discovered.

Why don't these asswipes shut the fuck up until the guy is stabilized and an official investigation reveals something? Why assume the absolute worst when there are zero facts to support it?

Douchebag media.

Well give Cowherd some credit at least. Those 60 seconds he spent Googling ST are 60 more seconds than he has ever spent researching anything else in the world of sports.

Guys, When Pray-low finished, James T. being they were both recovering together from injuries and had grown close as friends, got up for the presser.

He stated the team had gathered for prayer. That they where all waiting for some word from the ST family and very concerned from the news they have recieved to this point. He also stated of course this is very difficult and they are just waiting and praying.

He was at his fucking home with his family! If he was out looking for trouble, it would be a different story, but I guarantee you there is nothing he's done in his past that deserves getting gunned down in his own home.

Pay no attention to Cowherd. All he wants to do ever is rile up his listeners. If it's not about college football he really doesn't care.

He had some problems early, as every story on this incident has taken the time to mention, but I was very impressed on the few occasions I heard him speak. He had a great understanding of the game and seemed like a very intelligent person besides. Still, your point has some validity and I'd hope that the Miami-Dade police would have that guy who was involved in the earlier case with the ATVs and the lawsuit in for questioning right now.

Yeah. I am not knocking the guy. Aside from some early bumps in the road(and the one large bump) he has been a great team guy. Doesn't run his mouth with the media, just goes out and does his job. I certainly hope he pulls through. We know so little about what happened though, that you do have to wonder...

WOW, I keep reading these posts but still can't beleive what they are saying.

This is some bad news and not what the Skins needed at this point.

I really was hoping that he could come back healthy for the last game. I wanted to Dallas to beat the Skins with ST in the line-up. Now, games and wins seem kind of meaningless when someone's life is on the line.

I really do hope he gets better and recovers from this incident.

ESPN reports he was shot twice

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Taylor in critical condition after shooting

"He's in critical condition and has somewhat stabilized after surgery, but things could go either way at this point," the source said. "He's lost an incredible amount of blood. At this point, we're just waiting to see how he responds to the surgery."

An Extremeskins poster said this:

Channel 5 news (Fox 5) just reported that Sean Taylor is in a coma right now. Do keep him in prayer.

From a friend who heard it from someone else. It's unsubstaniated. That's why I was asking if anyone else heard anything like that.
