An NFL tragedy
The death of Washington Redskins Pro Bowl safety Sean Taylor is a tragedy of epic proportions. Beyond the football field, this was a 24-year-old man senselessly cut down in the prime of his life. Taylor was more than a talented football player. He was someone's son and father. He leaves behind lots of loving relatives and friends. I especially feel for his one-year-old daughter, who will grow up without her dad.
The big challenge for the Redskins is trying to overcome Taylor's death and get ready to host the Buffalo Bills this weekend. It will be hard, but somehow I'm sure the Redskins will find a way to pull it together and move forward. I think Taylor probably would want it that way.
