Default Re: Sean Taylor passed away this morning

The sentiment here in DC is like everyone lost someone close to them. It's really crazy - I've never seen anything like this for an athlete (at least regionally). I am not a Redskins fan, so I didn't take it any differently than I would if any other celebrity/athlete died, but my roommates were devastated, and I really understand. They take time out of their schedule every Sunday to watch the Skins play and root for them hard. They care about everything they do so much that they start to feel like they know them personally. I feel very badly for Taylor's family, friends, and the Redskins, but I also feel badly for their fans as Taylor was one of, if not the most popular Redskins.
