Redskins' Taylor still has an attitude?

Agreed! For the most part, things are just taken out of context. The writer of the article makes it seems like there is a dialogue between Gibbs and Taylor by alternating between each one's comments, in the process making Sean Taylor seem like a bad teammate. In reality, Joe Gibbs was supporting Taylor through all of the things he said in his press conference, although the article makes it seem to the contrary.

Essentially, the author is 'making up' a story. All of the things that the author quoted were said, but the deception lies behind all of the things the author didn't say, like noting Gibbs' praise of Taylor...Well, I guess whatever sells the papers, huh?

AP's article made it seem like Taylor is still a disruptive headcase who is angering the coaches. Redskins.com's article makes it seem like Taylor's issues are 100% behind him.

Methinks the truth lies somewhere in betwixt the two.

True, after all let's not forget about Redskins.com's "unfiltered" approach to spin, errrr, I mean news reporting.
