Suspects Held for Questioning in Taylor Shooting

According to the Miami Herald, three men are in custody for questioning regarding the Sean Taylor shooting.  Also according to the article, this may have been the result of someone bragging in public about how wealthy Taylor was and telling people where he lived.
Now, frankly, this is all a matter of public record so unless [...]

Turning a Page…

…without forgetting what was already read. That’s what we’re trying to do today.  The Bills are coming whether we’re ready or not.  And they aren’t going to go easy on us.  They’ll play like Sean did– flat out the whole time.  And it is up to Skins fans, Skins players, and the whole organization to [...]

Favorite Sean Taylor Moment

I was tempted to talk about the big hits.  I even looked all over You Tube for some good hits and the inevitable tributes.  There will be plenty of time for those, and undoubtedly ESPN will show plenty of them including the game saving hit against the Cowboys a couple of years ago.
But I wanted [...]

Rest in Peace, Sean

I’m sure everybody has heard before now that Sean Taylor died of his wounds last night. I couldn’t actually bring myself to say anything until now.  And all I can muster right now is that Riggo’s Rag, its readers, and the entire Redskins community sends its love to the Taylor family, especially his little daughter [...]

Taylor Responding to Docs

With a hat tip to Hogs Haven, Jason La Confora of Redskins Insider reports that Sean Taylor is responding to doctor’s requests to open his eyes and squeeze their hands. I’m not a doctor, but that can’t be bad. The most hopeful statement from the article said, “He was responsive to the doctor’s requests to [...]

Two Signs of Encouragement

Two tidbits from a Washington Post article:
First police were quoted as saying: “Once he comes to, we can actually put the pieces together.”
And Taylor’s grandmother said, “He’s doing pretty good. He’s in critical condition. That’s all the information I have.”
Both statements are encouraging.  Your grandmother doesn’t say “he’s doing pretty good” when you are in [...]

Taylor Owns Machete

I had not noticed this tidbit in any other story except Yahoo’s version:
“Sharpstein said Taylor’s girlfriend told him the couple was awakened by loud noises, and Taylor grabbed a machete he keeps in the bedroom for protection.”
I know it isn’t entirely appropriate to talk about this, but forgive me.  I use humor as a defense [...]

Taylor in a coma?

Some updates on Sean Taylor.  First, depending on what source you read he is out of surgery and either unconcious or in a coma.  The only sources I can find that say he is in a coma are unreliable or blogs that I find reliable but did not quote their sources.  Given that, I’ll refrain [...]

Taylor Shot

I was going to spend the morning lamenting yet another loss where we were the better team, but it seems inappropriate considering the news that Sean Taylor has been shot and is in critical condition.
Taylor was the apparent victim of a home invasion.  I say home invasion versus breaking and entering because it sounds more [...]

3rd Q Post

I hate those guys who second guess decisions after they already know whether a game is a win or a loss.  So I’m taking the time to say it now– win or lose, the decision to go for it on fourth and 1 in Bucs territory was stupid.
We needed 10 pts to take the lead [...]
