That's funny!

Great News. I just had my Taylor jersey tailored last week.{NPI} So I'm glad I can sport it at the games next year. I really didn't think he would go to jail. But it sure is nice to have this behind him.

You got the sides to expand more after last seasons excessive tailgating?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Let's leave the trash talk for the week prior to the game I know it's a slow month but why start with the heating lol.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Great news on Taylor so now we can play some football!!!! Arch and Taylor are going to hit a lot of running backs and WR's this season!!! LOOK out wanted dead or ali...no just dead!!!!

No but I might need to with all the beer I've been drinking.
I get the sleeves cuffed like the ones the players wear on the field. Here's a Portis jersey I had done last year.[url]http://community.webshots.com/photo/467178076/1467373267078423225XSAnCq[/url] I just cuffed the sleeves on a white Taylor 21. I all ready have a red Taylor 36 rookie jersey but there always seems to be a new jersey I want. I still want a Red Cooley jersey. What can I say? I'm addicted to buying Authentic Redskins jerseys.:insane:

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Nice touch. How much does that add to the price?

Am I the only person who buys the old Smoot authentics and gets the nameplate changed to Taylor?

It's cost me about $35 to $40 all toghter per jersey.
I almost bought a Red Smoot to do the same thing too. But I talked myself out of it becuse I already have a Red Taylor 36.[url]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5128240250&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1[/url] This is a great deal if you want a authentic Taylor jersey.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Question for legal pundits:

Can Taylor now be found liable in a civil case? I mean, of course they can take him to court, but do they not lack a preponderance of evidence to find him liable?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

This is the disposition I had been both waiting and hoping for. "Good News". There's a lot of releived minds around Redskin Park as well as in the community. The only people who do not like this outcome are the one's who have to play against him. While I hate to rush time, I can't wait to see ST & AA together at the safety position. AWSOME

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

I'm glad that has been resolved, now bring on the season

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Will Sean have to miss any games as a punishment from the league?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Great news! As for the other Taylor (Jacobs), we can afford to keep him around another year. Thrash is no better a WR and although people still believe he's valuable in the return game there were noticeably some mistakes he made fielding punts which, by the way Randle El now does.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

I like how they reference Taylor's father in the very last sentence of the article: "[Taylor's] father, Pedro Taylor, is chief of police in Florida City, Fla."

I'm sure the fact that his father is a police chief had nothing to do with anything. ;)

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

[quote=ChillWill]Will Sean have to miss any games as a punishment from the league?[/quote]

No way that Sean misses any games due to any of this. The charges have basically been dropped. If there is no case and no admitance of guilt, then why would there be any punishment from the league?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Don't be so quick to say that. I myself don't see how they can cuz he has not been convicted of a crime nor has he admitted to one. But as it was stated on yahoo,
"The NFL could still impose a fine or suspend Taylor for one or more games, Sharpstein said, but league officials did not immediately return a telephone call seeking comment. The Redskins also declined comment but have publicly supported Taylor in the past."

I guess the NFL "could" do a lot of things to Sean, but I just don't think there is any precedent for them to do that. Most of the other times that guys get fined and suspended, it is for things that they have messed up with the league. This is a case outside of the league that has basically been dropped. If you are the league what do you say when you impose a penalty on Sean? "Well he was almost guilty, so we are suspending him for 2 games." I mean there is some punshment already with the whole $1000 having to be given to the schools that were mentioned. Kind of like community service.

Exactly. Where in the rules does it say that the NFL will impose a fine and/or suspend a player for a certain number of games for being [B]accused [/B]of a crime, even after charges are dropped?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

who didnt see that comin.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

It is now the equivalent of stealing 20 bucks and jay walking. I love it. God Bless overzealous incompetent prosecutors, and teams of defense attornies who clearly did better on the bar.

I love it. I think his community service should be making an appearance at the former prosecutor's weekly party.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

what does pleading "no contest" mean ? i know that pleading "guilty" means that you are saying you did the crime but in what ways is "no contest" different ?

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

[QUOTE=ChillWill]Will Sean have to miss any games as a punishment from the league?[/QUOTE]
Recently the league has been imposing a one game suspension to anyone who pleads guilty to a crime. A no contest plea isn't the same as guilty, but with his history (spitting incident, DWI arrest he was acquitted of) the league may slap him with a game anyways.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

I think that the NFL has nothing here. I expect no suspension at all on this. You cannot take a pattern of on field behavior, combine it it with a non convicted off-field incident and then suspend a player. My bet is that if something does happen the players association would have something to say about it.

No crime = No punishment

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

The only surprise is that it took this long.

The league should tread lightly considering the scum who brought the charges against him. Like Taylor's lawyer said, the witness who played against him was jealous and thought that he could profit off of this so he wouldn't have to steal cars anymore. Think again dirtbag...

Suspending Taylor for a game is essentially taking the side of convicted criminals who were trying to abuse the system. The league better put some thought into this or Sharpstein will bitchslap them too.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Bet the prosecutor is just as relieved as ST. I susect the case against Taylor had some serious issues.

Taylor's lawyer also said that DJ Disco Grieco isn't out of the woods yet and this issue is not over for him.

you're not admitting guilt, but you're not going to contest (challenge) the charges either.

basically the worst thing that would come out of a civil case would be a settlement which im sure taylor will be able to afford because thats all the "victim" would want if they took it that far anyway.

Re: Taylor Issue Over!!!
 

Thank you , Thank you , I read this one like a book !Almost to a T I said this is what would happen .Now I will admit I don't like Taylor and he is a punk ...a good football player but he is an ass and he is guilty but the prosecutor screwed up so he walks .

Nice try but you don't have to plea "No Contest" and pay a $1000 fine per school and give ten speechs for not doing a crime .:spank:

Why is he an ass? Have you met him or are you just tired of watching him pummel Shockey and Toomer?

You weren't there so you don't know what happened. But as a fan of LT you probably would believe a career criminal's side of the story...

Civil case? ha ha ha ha

Opening argument:
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury; after stealing Sean Taylor's ATV's my client would like 5 million dollars since he has lost approximately 20 AK-47 shells somewhere in Mr. Taylor's SUV and the residence where he was staying.

Sounds like ST could still face a 1-2 game suspension.

From law.com's dictionary.

in criminal law, a defendant's plea in court that he/she will not contest the charge of a particular crime, also called nolo contendere. While technically not an admission of guilt for commission of the crime, the judge will treat a plea of "no contest" as such an admission and [B]proceed to find the defendant guilty as charged.[/B] A "no contest" plea is often made in cases in which there is also a possible lawsuit for damages by a person injured by the criminal conduct (such as reckless driving, assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault), [B]because it cannot be used in the civil lawsuit as an admission of fault.[/B] "No contest" is also used where there has been a "plea bargain" in which the defendant does not want to say he/she is guilty but accepts the sentence recommended by the prosecutor in exchange for not contesting the charge (which is often reduced to a lesser crime). It is standard practice for the judge to ask either the attorneys or the defendant, "Is there a factual basis for the plea?" before accepting it and finding the defendant guilty.
