Nov. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor died after he was shot in the leg during a possible burglary at his Florida home, the Associated Press reported, citing family friend Richard Sharpstein. He was 24.

Taylor was found bleeding from a gunshot wound when officers responded to a call at his Palmetto Bay home just before 2 a.m. yesterday, Miami-Dade Police said.

Sad. The NFL's now had two starters murdered in two years, Darrent Williams and now Taylor.

Never heard of him, sorry.

"how many reserves?"

I don't think any. Two players is two too many, be they starters, reserves, punters, long snappers, whatever.

Taylor was a good player. He had a little bit of the cheap shot artist in him, but he was fun to watch.

I care. This is very sad and totally fucked.

Aw, I thought he was pretty much in the clear last night (headlines were that he was awake and stuff). This sucks.

died after he was shot in the leg

I know it's just because of an endless diet of trash tv and action movies and stuff, but it always surprises me when I read about someone dying from a shot to something like the leg.

Anyway, R.I.P.

Femoral artery. Bled to death basically, probably conscious for it.

His heart stopped twice on the operating table. He lost so much blood they say he probably would have been brain damaged had he lived.

This sucks.Shot down like a dog in front of your wife and baby daughter. There are some fucking savages in this world.
