New Orleans Saints - Washington Redskins Sean Taylor Passes Away

I actually saw a show this past weekend that asked "where is the safest play to get shot at and survive". The answer was NOT the leg. Major arteries there that are easy to hit. Its safer to be shot in the arm than anywheres.

So when I heard he was shot in the leg and in critical condition I thought of that show.

That's a sad situation. The previous break-in when they left a knife on a bed is just bizzare. I get the felling that there is more to this story.

Anyway, condolances to the Skins fans and the Taylor family.

Really bad news. He was just getting his life straightened out. A new baby and all. Sad thing.
The leg is a bad place, my dumb butt almost bled to death in a hospital after they did a heart cath. My dumb butt moved and the artery reopened. It doesn't take long to lose a lot of blood there. After 9 heart caths I think i've learned LOL.

Sad to say he never had that chance. Pray for his family. I will.

I can't help but wonder if his past caught up with him, but regardless, I sympathize for his family. At least they shouldn't have to worry about money.

You can bet we haven't heard the last about this. What seems to me to be a shame is I read that he was just getting his life together and really making an effort to be a better person. Now he won't have that chance. Even so, money isn't everything you know, now his girlfriend has a baby to raise on her own, with no daddy. How do you explain that to a kid down the road? Sad,very sad.
