If this is the worst trouble Sean Taylor ever gets into, the Skins will be very happy.

Here is the nagging itch in all of this. I have been a starving college student too. I never had to go to LA for a seminar as part of the process of getting my first job out of college so I could make millions of dollars, but I suspect that if I did I would have taken care of the "moving out" details prior to getting on the plane to LA. BTW, if he is being "evicted", where will he be living after the seminar? In a refrigerator box under a bridge? I don't think so. In fact, I don't think he is so destitute that he can't get someone to put whatever stuff he wants into storage for him.

Keep this in mind. Taylor - like just about every other kid drafted in the first two rounds of the draft - has been coddled and pampered because of his athletic skills since he was about 10 years old. He is probably used to having people do "stuff" for him. And Taylor's Wonderllic test scores do not inspire you to think that he had to choose between NFL Football and a career as a professor of philosophy. So, maybe he is having difficulty keeping priorities straight because that is a difficult thing for him to grasp.

Like I said, if this is the worst that happens to him, the Skins are in fat city. But if he has other problems making decisions and keeping his obligations straight...
