Terrible news after what we all thought was a good sign yesterday evening. As you may have heard, Sean Taylor passed away overnight. Last night, Vinnie Cerrato of the Redskins and Sean's father gave us reports that Sean had squeezed a doctor's hand on command. This morning, some reports say that was reflex.
I'm shocked. More shocked than yesterday when I heard the news that he was shot. Probably because when I left the house this morning at 5:30, NBC4 was still reporting him alive. Then on my way to the metro, I heard that he had passed away. I was hoping that it was erroneous report. That some news lackey had pushed the wrong button and published it on Fox5's website, from which DC101 was reporting it. But then it was all over the place.
Senseless act to take the life of a human being, not matter what his history was.
As my fellow Premium ticket holder Q noted, stating that he would wear his #21 jersey the rest of the season, plan on remembering Taylor, somehow, someway.
Rest in Peace #21.
