What also made the Sean Taylor story so tragic is that he had helped a lot of poor people finically in his living area, And ironically, if those robbers had came to him, chances are good he would have given them what they were trying to steal; that’s the kind of person he was. Very well done video, thank you for your hard work.

Rest In Peace to all the players. The loss of Sean Taylor will always be a sore spot. Such a tragic way to die….trying to protect his family but dying not knowing if you did. I am a Washington fan for life and this loss will always be sad. He is forever missed. He was a cut up off the field, but turning stuff around. Two ironic and tragic things abt Sean’s story. 1). His life ending injury happened on 11/18 (just as theismann and A smith. 2). Because of previous shenanigans, Sean has to turn in his guns he owned, so therefore he didn’t have a gun to protect his family that night. Thanks for your content, Mike.
