Sean Taylor Update

Honestly, I'd like this stuff to be cleared up as soon as possible and have these guys be put to justice so we can all try to move on. Reading about new details surfacing just brings back bad feelings about that horrible day 4 months ago.

It's such a sad story. The reality is that these dumb kids saw a bunch of money at Taylor's house and felt the need to take it. They were too stupid to realize who he was, what he meant to his family and his fans, and like many people have said, that he was generous enough to probably have given them the money anyway.

Maybe Sean was generous to a fault. People often don't appreciate generosity, particularly when it's not directed at themselves. These kids saw Sean hand someone $10,000 in cash as a gift and got greedy. It wasn't enough that he paid one of them 300 bucks to mow his damn lawn, they had to go get more. It's a shame when people don't know the value of an honest day of hard work. Most people get paid 30-50 bucks for that kind of stuff.

The whole thing is sickening really. People getting shot up for the dumbest reasons. Families being broken up by greedy punks over petty jealousies. Heck, take a quick tour of Google for their MySpace pages. Many of the suspects are pictured with cash lying around all over the place. Obviously these guys were dealing drugs at some point, so it's even more infuriating that they felt the need to rob someone to take even more money. Wasn't all of that money you made poisoning your fellow men enough to satisfy you?
