Sean Taylor shot & in critical condition (merged)

[Tatonka]

there are reports here on 102.1 in richmond, va (redskins country) that someone broke into Sean Taylors house and he was shot... I cant find anything on it on any main websites. Can anyone verify?

[THATHURMANATOR]

Haven't heard anything.

[DraftBoy]

I got nothing at my usual spots for news

[patmoran2006]

i just heard it too
wgr..

wow, thats awful man.

[Tatonka]

they are saying that someone broke into his house and shot him.

i think they said it was definately the leg, possibly more.

[Forward_Lateral]

Jesus. I can't stand the guy as a person, but nobody wants to see something like this happen. Hopefully his life isn't in jeopardy.

According to a report in the Miami Herald, police took a call early Monday that a homeowner had been shot in the leg.

[mybills]

[Forward_Lateral]

Yikes. Right in the ballsack.

[The King]

The dude is a thug... I can gurantee you this isnt a random attack.

[DraftBoy]

:pray: for Taylor

Hate to see crap like this happen to anyone, thug or not

[Tatonka]

you dont get shot in the "groin" on accident.

[Forward_Lateral]

I wonder who's wife he banged.

[colin]

guy is a sick sick player, but yeah he has been trouble since day one and this isn't exactly surprising. he might have boned someone's wife or knocked up the wrong girl.

[colin]

I wonder who's wife he banged.

[Dr. Lecter]

He is in critical condition too:

I wonder who will be the first to say it....

[BlackMetalNinja]

I wonder who will be the first to say it....

What that maybe Travis Henry or Willis McGahee needs the same thing to happen? No way man... too crass! :couch:

Actually I was leaning more towards who the Bills play this week.

[mchurchfie]

It was probably Fairchild trying to loosen up the secondary for next week's game.

Nobody on our team can hit their target though...

[OpIv37]

Nah, Fairchild's too much of a wuss. If we're lucky, he'd get the courage to tap Taylor on the shoulder and meekly ask him to stay on the bench.

[mchurchfie]

If it was Losman the bullet would have doublehopped before it got to it's target.

[MarshawnIsDaMan]

If it was Losman the bullet would have doublehopped before it got to it's target.
Or 5 yards over his head.

[jpdex12]

you dont get shot in the "groin" on accident.

Just like that Texas Longhorn fan didn't get his balls ripped off on accident by a crazy Sooner fan in a honky tonk in Oklahoma.

[Mitchy moo]

We need all the help we can get but this is not the right way.

[JD]

Shot in the groin? I can almost garauntee he drilled another mans girl. You just dont take a casual shot to the groin when in the midst of a druge deal or gang violence.. look at fifty. Now HE, is a gangsta.

Get well soon Taylor.

[Philagape]

Or 5 yards over his head.

Or hit someone else.

[Mitchy moo]

I just read he might of been shot twice, dang.

[Jan Reimers]

Actually I was leaning more towards who the Bills play this week.
Wasn't he injured and out of the lineup anyway?

[Mitchy moo]

Wasn't he injured and out of the lineup anyway?

He was and he didn't make the last game trip, so who knows if he would of played. Safe to say he's out now and I wish him the best.

[patmoran2006]

Gotta show some love and prayers for this guy..He's now in a coma after surgery and it doesnt look good.

Playing the Skins' this week, Im sure plenty of their fans will find their way to this board. Show them we got some class and we only fight and taunt amongst ourselves (sad, yet true)

We know about personal adversity through Kevin Everett, and this is even worse (unimaginable)

Sean, we forgive you for nearly taking Moorman's ****ing head off at the Pro Bowl and hope you pull through man.

[Mitchy moo]

I didn't think he might die, OMG that would be terrible. They need to have a big prayer for him before the game, seriously.

[BuffaloBrave]

Sean, we forgive you for nearly taking Moorman's ****ing head off at the Pro Bowl and hope you pull through man.

...Wasn't that Jason Taylor?

[shelby]

Wow...how sad.
:pray: i'll keep him in my prayers.

[Illmatic15]

Even Mcgahee has more class than some of you guys here. The dude is fighting for his life and I hear ppl calling him a thug and all that. It was a robbery, the *** who shot him is jealous of taylors money..

[shelby]

How very sad.:pray:

He may not make it either, according to PM. Really sad situation. Thanks for the merge!!

[KO1]

Im from the DC area and this is hitting alot of skins fans pretty hard...you may not like how he plays but people love him down here. Keep Sean in your prayers.

Wow, it's really that bad. What a shame.

Doctors are worried the blood loss might affect blood flow to the brain, said Sharpstein, who was at the hospital with Taylor's family and friends.
<!--Two grafs from the post-->In a story posted on The Washington Post's Web site, Sharpstein characterized Taylor as "nonresponsive and unconscious."
"Right now he's clinging to life and we're all praying he makes it," Sharpstein said, according to The Post.

[mybills]

:pray:

[Mitchy moo]

Looks like it was a robbery, this is not Sean's fault:

The shooting came eight days after another invasion was reported at his home. According to police records, someone pried open a front window, rifled through his drawers and left a kitchen knife on a bed.

[Mr. Miyagi]

So does this mean he's doubtful for Sunday or what?

Oh no, come on now. :bad: :bad:

If anyone wants to send some support, like many fans of other teams did here after Kevin Everett's injury, here is a link to the Redskins forum:

http://www.thehogs.net/forum/index.php

[Ingtar33]

he's in critical condition due to blood loss.

He got hit in the femoral artery.

I can tell you straight up, that artery gets severed and you'll bleed out in under 5 minutes. that's like getting your jugular cut.

no wonder he's in crit condition.

Horrible.

AP reporting good news:

The 24-year-old player was in the intensive care unit following several hours of surgery at Jackson Memorial Hospital, although doctors were encouraged late in the day when Taylor responded to simple commands.
"He was responsive to the doctor's request to squeeze his hand and show facial expression, and so the doctors were very happy about that," Redskins vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato said. "They told us to hope for a miracle, and I think the positive news we got was extremely good news."
