Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

I'm watching it up here at work as people make their way in...and I think I might just lose it. This is awful, just awful. I'm still pissed at that idiot that came on our site yesterday to blame Sean Taylor and the Redskins for his passing.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Wow, Portis gave a great tribute.

Lavar is up now.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Lavar's speech was very emotional.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

LaVar was really emotional. Great speech

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

LaVar's tribute was especially moving as he struggled to stay composed. Great message about expressing love for those around you.

who is that dumb ass? ?????

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Boy, were him and Buck Ortega close or what? I knew they played ball in high school and at the U, but they were literally tied at the hip.

He said he really regretted that they grew apart when Sean came to the NFL. He basically said Sean was responsible for him coming to Washington, D.C. He said Tayor taught him so much about the business side of the NFL and how your image is so important.

Buck told two funny stories about Taylor: He said he remembered missing his first football curfew because he was with Sean Taylor that night. The crowd laughed. Then he told another (opposite order) about a time they went spear fishing and how Taylor dove in the water and swam near the bottom and came right back up. Ortega said, Sean you know need time to equalize. You just can't dive that deep, come right back to the surface and start doing stuff (paraphrasd). Taylor said, he was okay. Ortega said that was the first time he knew Sean Taylor wasn't all human.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

buck ortega. wow that was moving.

the baby clappin made me cry.

i forgive the killers because god will not be easy on them.

sean is probably playin football right now, good ol oklahoma drill against walter payton

I think he was banned because all his posts are deleted from the "Thanks Skins" thread. You can still see the dumb stuff he was saying in his quotes people used.

Watching the funeral is really difficult, but I hope it will help start to bring some kind of closure to this tragedy.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

I've been strong throughout this whole ordeal but this is very moving. Lavar we still love you and it was great to see you up there pouring your heart out as a man. Clinton showed his friendship was untested and true. Sad, Sad, Sad

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Ortega told another story how in high school Taylor would hurdle right over players that running straight up as opposed to diving at the ankles. (remember he played running back). He said Taylor would do this repeatedly. Finally after the team made it to the playoffs, Ortega said, hell, if Sean could do it so can I. Ortega remembers trying it and taking an opposing helmet in the chest cavity. He said Taylor didn't let him live it down for about two years.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

He is right, shame on people like Michael Wilbon. Seriously, fuck him.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Florida City Mayor is calling out the media right now, at least he's acknowledging that it wasn't the entire media

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Wow, I really wanted to keep Wilbon out of this thread but after listening to the Mayor, how could you? All I can say good for him for calling out the knuckleheads who rushed to judgement.

Very fitting and classy act. I also liked how he acknowledged the Redskins and the entire room stood.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

can somone please inform me on wat wilbon said? i missed it

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

i'm watching it on NFL network and it's been making my eyes water. I know sean is in a better place and even though i wasn't a big redskins fan i loved watching that kid play. I love all the stories about him because i didn't know much about him off the field untill this week and he sounds like a great guy. 12th man i also wanted to say sorry about the whole Brett Favre thing i don't know if you remember but we had a little disagreement about him. I'm a huge Favre fan but i do feel sorry about getting into it with you. I know it's not important now but i just thought i should tell ya....

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

In short, Wilbon said he wasn't surprised that Taylor was shot because of his past. He later said that maybe Taylor had changed but that didn't mean the people around him had.

[quote=dall-assblows;388224]can somone please inform me on wat wilbon said? i missed it[/quote]

In a nutshell, he said he wasn't surprised about what happened to Taylor. Said it wasn't the first time and won't be the last. This was the day before he passed. He has sinced tried to back pedal some, but hasn't apologized.

Believe me when I say I'm done with Mike Wibon.

Dude, no apologies necessary. I was being a complete ass myself. That entire week I was full of myself for whatever the reason with the whole hate Green Bay thing. I probably was on my period or something.

I hope this Sean Taylor incident will make us all appreciate the talent and the great playes we have with us.

It's ironic that Taylor's last interception was thrown by Favre and here we are apologizing for a spat. Life is funny, huh?

hey we're just two guys passionate about our teams right? ha ha. The death of Sean really has helped me change a lot of my daily actions, i don't go a day without telling my wife that i love her because you never know when your time comes. Like i said i'm a huge Brett Favre and if he had to set the mark for career interceptions i'm glad Sean Taylor was the man who helped him. It's nice that his last interception was one that will go in the record books (or atleast it should)

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

I think I just saw Snyder and Renaldo Wynn hug

The speaches were all very moving. But Lavar's was especially touching.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Is there anywhere to view it for those of us that couldn't watch live?

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

I wasn't going to watch this, but I thought the pastor wrapped it up beautifully. I really liked hearing his uncle and Coach Shannon.

In other news, Michael Wilbon was released from The George Washington University Hospital after doctor's successfully removed his head from his ass. Doctors did not remove his foot from his mouth, as they expect that to be expelled naturally over time.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

Simply, very moving.

Re: Live Feed For Sean's Funeral
 

I actually woke up late and missed class and most of the funeral but the part I did see choked me up pretty bad, was when Jackie Garcia's sister got up there and spoke on her behalf.

Just from what her sister was saying, I can tell Jackie and Sean had an unbreakable bond; the type that everyone goes through life hoping they find and I'm glad they both found each other and got to spend the little time that they had together to make a beautiful child to carry on his spirit and name. She was right on when she said, God always takes the good ones too soon.

Lets not forget Tony Cornhole was in total agreement and even said it with more conviction. There was a 'behind the scenes' type video of tony & wilbon and the wash. post editor, I think, she was something like that, anyway it was a little 4-5 minute conversation about what their thoughts were about the whole thing. Really pissed me off, but I cant find it anywhere now, imagine that. If I find it Ill let yall know.
