Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
Medical miracles can happen. They will have probably put him in an artificial state of hypothermia, which is supposed to prevent (or at least mitigate) brain damage when air isn't getting to the brain for a period of time.
The surgery to close things up and remove the bullet, it seems, was successful. Until he wakes up, and hoping he does, there is really no way to tell how he'll be. I know for a fact that there is never any solid way to diagnose it until then. I wish him the best. |

Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
I actually commend ESPN for not doing the typical over-coverage thing. What can they say - a guy was shot and we'll know more later. I don;t want a doctor on their drawing diagrams of where he thinks the bullet went in or just the random theories on what happened. I hope he makes it, but move on.

[ QUOTE ] The dude keeps a machete by his bedside? Damn... [/ QUOTE ] It was reported someone broke into his home the week before and left a knife. I've had similar scares and have kept a bat and a sword in my room after those incidents, I don't see anything unusual about that [/ QUOTE ] Why did he not have a house alarm? It's a trivial cost for a pro athlete. The intruders probably would have left immediately, and even if not, Sean would have had a few more seconds warning. |

Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
The local DC news is making it sound grave indeed. In the words of George Michael, he is "critically, gravely, seriously injured", "there is a minister at his bedside preparing the family for what may come".
This doesn't sound at all good. I always liked him and was looking forward to watching him in his prime. |

Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
DesertCat,
We don't definitively know if he has an alarm or not, right? It could have been disabled or simply not enough of a deterrent to stop that stuff from going down. I think bodyguards or police detail to guard your home could be a bit much though paranoia and cost-wise. I mean, who expects something this terrible to happen? Christ I hope he pulls through though. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] also he spits on people! [/ QUOTE ] Someone made this douche a mod? [/ QUOTE ] At least I am not the only one infuriated by his comment. It's amazing how the internet makes people think they can say whatever they want. [/ QUOTE ] My post looks different outside of the context of the post to which it responded. Somebody was pointing out Taylor's history with the law and didn't mention that there's some on the field stuff that speaks to the chance that Taylor is a less than swell dude. [/ QUOTE ] No I think most of us realized that but still found the lack of tact pretty tasteless, made worse by the fact it was Dids, self-appointed moral compass of the internet. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think it's pretty sad that his family has no privacy at a time like this. I usually have no sympathy towards celebrities wrt to their lives being public, but this is a different story imo |
