family is not letting any information out

Unbelievable.....this is worse than when I heard that Chris Farley had died

Redskin · 11-26-2007, 11:47 AM

I wonder if Taylor tried to resist giving the burgerler what he wanted

Everyone just take a deep breath, say a prayer, and keep your fingers crossed. I'm sick about this too. He'll make it. He's tough as nails, young, and in prime physical condition. Throwing out "what ifs" right now doesn't do anyone any good.

I just heard about this on ESPN radio. They didn't mention the severity of his wound, so I'm hoping that it wasn't as critical as mentioned in other posts here in this thread. God be with him and my prayers and thoughts are with him as well. Un f***ing believable!

This sucks, I just hope that these reports are off and its not as bad as it seems.

redsk1 · 11-26-2007, 11:49 AM

OMG. Hope he's going to be ok and live. Who cares about football. This is unbelievable. I don't know what to say.

GMScud · 11-26-2007, 11:49 AM

A Miami-Dade detective being interviewed on ESPN2 just confirmed he's critical. FUCK.

¶ MIAMI (AP) _ Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor was in critical condition after he was shot at his Florida home Monday, police said.
¶ Miami-Dade County police officers were dispatched to Taylor's home at about 1:45 a.m. and found him shot. He was then airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital, police Detective Alvaro Zabaleta said. He didn't know where on Taylor's body he was shot.
¶ A brief statement from the Redskins said Taylor was undergoing treatment at the Miami hospital and that police were investigating. His family has asked that no information about his condition be released at this point, said hospital spokeswoman Lorraine Nelson.
¶ Taylor has a home in the wealthy Miami suburb of Palmetto Bay that he bought for $900,000 two years ago.
¶ Taylor, 24, is in his fourth season with the Redskins after playing at the University of Miami. He leads the team with five interceptions but has missed the last two games with a knee injury.
¶ In 2005, Taylor was accused of brandishing a gun at a man and repeatedly hitting him during a fight that broke out after Taylor and some friends went looking for the people who had allegedly stolen his all-terrain vehicles.
¶ Taylor reached a deal with prosecutors last year after they agreed to drop felony charges against him. He pleaded no contest to two misdemeanors in the assault case and was sentenced to 18 months probation.
¶ The man, Ryan Hill, also sued, seeking at least $15,000 in damages. Hill suffered bruising to his body, incurred medical expenses and lost wages because of the fight, the lawsuit said.

Wow. This is very tragic. He is listed as in Crotocal condition at the hospital. My thoughts and praters are with your family Sean.

Schneed10 · 11-26-2007, 11:51 AM
