Huh? I thought he was shot due to a home invasion. How is that playing with fire?
You consider being at home with your fiance and daughter "playing with fire"?
Way to keep the RIP thread civil.
Say what you will, but the guy is a known criminal, living the "thug" lifestyle. Eventually, someone is going to get hurt, regardless of the situation. I repeat, it is sad that he died.

Just a sad day. I really hope people are able to keep this thread clean and show some respect for the loss of life. Sean was 24 years old and had a full life in front of him. He now has a 18 month old daughter who will grow up without her dad.
Yeah I think that is a pretty fine point. We don't expect sports to be life and death but when things like the Kevin Everett injury and this tragedy happen, kind of makes you take a step back. I felt terrible two years ago when Ken Hamlin was involved in that street incident that put him in the hospital. Must be an extra sad day for Skins fans.
You're being too kind.Say what you will, but the guy is a known criminal, living the "thug" lifestyle. Eventually, someone is going to get hurt, regardless of the situation. I repeat, it is sad that he died.
Living the "thug" lifestyle by moving away from his troubled neighborhood to a new community where his neighbors were affluent retirees? By all reports he distanced himself from that lifestyle. By your reports he didn't. You don't have a source, I'll stick to the people who do. Again, nice of you to ruin the RIP thread. Have a good day.Say what you will, but the guy is a known criminal, living the "thug" lifestyle. Eventually, someone is going to get hurt, regardless of the situation.

Oh get over your high and mighty self. I'm not dancing on his grave for crying out loud. I am merely pointing out the fact that the guy made enemies with gangsters and criminals. This SAD story simply does not surprise me in the very least.Living the "thug" lifestyle by moving away from his troubled neighborhood to a new community where his neighbors were affluent retirees?

Sorry, guess I have morals not to come into a thread of people that are profoundly saddend by this and basically say that he had what was coming to him. You knew a comment like that would upset people posting in a thread like this and you still did it. That's wrong. If you want to argue with someone, go to another thread. I'm done with you. Let's please get this thread back on topic.Oh get over your high and mighty self. I'm not dancing on his grave for crying out loud.

Not to disrupt the thread, but did you really need this incident to put things in perspective? You didn't realize before this happened that life or death is more important than win or lose?I don't mean to attack you personally, it's just that someone always throws that "puts things into perspective" line out there after something like this happens, and I just think it's way over the top.Anyway, RIP, Sean Taylor. Carry on...
You haven't kept up with Sean Taylor's life and are speaking out of ignorance.
I think he was just saying it matter of factly.
its a shame people have to say things like this.
Yeah... yeah... yeah... he's a changed man, had a kid, turned his life around, found god. I got it. Doesn't really change my opinion.
Enjoy your timeout that is rightfully coming. You earned it.
But you have kept up with Sean Taylor's life?
If I had any idea who you are I might miss you when you "have a nice season."
Way to be a complete tool.
So I'm not allowed to have an opinion? I'm sorry that I am not as sympathetic as you are. I feel bad for his family and friends. This just does not surprise me. The whole thing is suspicious, and I would like to see what other facts come to light. Until then, I am skeptical. Sue me.
After reading the CNN article it is obvious to me that his former life really was a part of his demise. While sad for his daughter and his family this is YET another example of what might happen to people that want to cross over into the lives of criminals. But then again- in America- it is cool and hip to love the world of gangsters. These scenes play out every day in Chicago. Good kids that just walk to school or some teenage girl sitting at home studying when some lead crashes thru the window. While sad that a young man dies it is even sadder that this is how savage life in America can be.
