Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I was playing this yesterday and it felt so weird seeing 21 on the field, even in a video game. I really didn't know what to do... I know this is stupid. Just wanted to see if anyone else felt/noticed the same thing.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I just got a Black Friday HDTV for my bedroom so Madden has pretty much been an every night addiction but it was definitely an awkward feeling playing Madden and knowing that 21 just.. doesn't exist on the field anymore.
It almost hurt.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I know what you mean I was playing my girlfriend last night and Sean took 2 interceptions back for TDs and I almost cried. Because it hit me even harder that he will never be on the field again.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I also played last night and didn't want to stop playing... I'm going to probably break down if they update a roster and I cant use him... I'm playing while I can so I can still play with him online...
For some reason, though.. .yesterday when I got online no one who was matched up with me wanted to play. Usually the first one or two people will play, but yesterday I had a hard time getting a game using the skins. Every time i see his picture or watch a highlight video I get emotional... Playing with him is almost therapeutic, but very sad at the same time.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
Goodness I was thinking about him being missing from the '09 version, I play on keeping '08 as long as possible.
Just a thought, would it be good or bad to have Taylor on the cover of '09 as a tribute? |

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I think it would be great for Sean to be the 09 cover thought I doubt it would have much appeal outside of Skins fans.

I cant believe you just said that!?! Are you crazy? Fans that went to HS school with him and followed him through his years at the "U" dude that comment was horrible... I am by no means a fan of the Redskins but I joined Warpath to see what everyone was saying about Sean! Remember where he came from before you make comments about his fans!!! |

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I did think of Taylor on the cover of Madden but the Madden cover is never followed by good things. I know he is in a better place now but it's called the Madden Curse and the last thing I want is a curse on ST even if it wouldn't affect him the least.
I played Madden 08 the moment I got home from school after hearing the news I played a game against the Cowboys and I used ST in every facet of the game I could. I know I will be putting him in Madden 09, I couldn't play without him. |

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I don't think I can play with him again since I will probably break down during the game. My friends told me that I need to play a franchise on the game and dedicate my season to him. It will be so freaking weird next year he want be on the game. Think about it he was probably going to be a top 2 safety on the game behind only Reed. It is a shame.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
The best thing about Madden is you can always create a player. ST can live on through Madden.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I don't think I even want to play Madden yet. Seeing S.T on the game and knowing He will never play again sounds to depressing to me right now.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
I played Madden for the first time tonight. I'm going to do nothing but play as Taylor. In my first game playing solely as Taylor, HE had 2 picks, 3 sacks and 12 tackles.

Re: Sean Taylor in Madden 08
just keep in mind buddy that they are going to take him out of the game during the next roster update. I just don't want you to be devastated when it happens.
