Sean Taylor Shot in the Thigh (UPDATED 6:54 PM)

[mooby]

This is the best news I've heard all day. Keep pulling through ST, we're rooting for you!

[CowboyzAdam]

Yeah the Eagles show their true colors again. You know it is really sad that I have to say that it does not surprise me one bit. I would be totally blown away if I went to their site and did not see them celebrating this tragic event. I am praying for Sean and will continue to. My heart goes out to all you Redskin fans.

At times like these Rivalry has to be put aside. I have never wished ill will on any Redskin fans nor players. It is just simply a Rivalry. Nothing more. I enjoy when we beat your team but I hate when anything bad happens to any fans or players. We are all human beings at the end of the day. Unfortunately some fans tend to forget that and go to far and are classless and lack all tact.

I truly feel for each and every one of you. That comes from my Cowboys heart. Forget the Rivalry. I can only imagine how I would feel if it were one of our players like Newman for example. I don't wish that on any of you. At times like these we are all football fans and human beings. Therefore we are all one. I am one of the Administrators over at the Cowboys board. Budlee knows which one. I will tell you that everyone of our members are in support of each and everyone of you.

I hope Sean get well fast and we will continue to pray for you guys and his family. You will never hear nor see any of us on our Cowboys board be so insensitive to make light of this like some of you have received from the Eagle fans.

I just wanted to pop in here and personally say a few things to each of you.

God Bless.

Welcome to the board and thanks for the classy post. It's so nice to see fans of other teams, particularly rival teams, go out of their way to sign up to become members of Redskins fan sites and express their support. Very classy my friend.

I think most Redskins fans would feel the same way about anyone else in this league. I recall feeling the same way about Ken Hamlin when he was a Seahawk. Thanks again for being so classy and kind.

I'll also note that I haven't seen one damn eagles fan on here showing support. But plenty of Cowboys fans.

That is a little unfair in a sense that not everyone has to come to this board to show there support. There are plenty of ways to show support. It is great that the Cowboy fans have and they should be thanked, but just because eagles fans are not on this board voicing there support does not mean they are not praying or doing whatever they feel is right. it is just a disgrace to for them to be commenting negatively on their boards.

I may bleed burgundy and Gold, but I gotta admit I shed a tear when Old Coach Landry passed away.

A true rivalry bred by respect.

Way to show class, Cowboy fans.

Deeply appreciated today.

Another classy post by a Cowboy's fan. Thanks. For the record, my roommate is an Eagles fan, and has had nothing but good, supportive things to say about the Taylor situation. It's too bad there are so many other Eagles assholes out there.

I don't like making redundant posts, but just wanted to echo SSGs post. Your kind thoughts and words are sincerely appreciated in this difficult time. God Bless.

[SkinsFan6388]

its great to see the support coming from cowboys fans, and it really shines a positive light and will make me think the next time i want to trash a cowboys fan. i appreciate it, as we all do

[DGreene28]

I'm very impressed with the Cowboys fans showing up on this site supporting Sean during this difficult time. Very classy guys and much appreciated.

The a-holes are everywhere. I am sure there are cowboy fans and giants fans that are out there right now having a good laugh at this situation, as I am sure there would be skins fans that would do it to. let me correct that, they are not fans they are dumb asses who root for a team. They think being kind, and showing compassion for other people espcially those of the rival team is a sign of weakness. Well a sign of weakness is not being compassionate not letting your true feelings out. I hate the Cowboys always will, as I would expect them to hate the Redskins but regardless of what color uniform you wear on Sunday this about a human being, a friend, a Son, and most importantly a Father. These type of situations are horrible for anyone to endure and I hope nobody ever has to personally. But if anything can be taken from this tragedy it is not the assholes who took pleasure in it but the people like CowboyzAdam and so many other cowboy, eagles, and giant fans that have shown there support, have said a kind word. It is because of people like you all and the real Redskin fans that make this sport special.

I was browsing other sites and I even saw Broncos' fans mocking the whole situation. I think one even asked if he was a Crip or a Blood.

Granted, this definitely wasn't all Broncos fans. But you'd think they, of all fans, would be sensitive to this.

Unfortunately, most football fans outside of DC have an impression of Taylor perpetuated by the media rehashing his on and off-field transgressions from his first two years in the league. By all accounts of his teammates and coaches, Taylor has been a changed man since the arrival of his daughter prior to last season. Idiots like Colin Cowturd would never allow the public to see that side of Sean. I wish they could all see the interviews Kelli Johnson did with Taylor - they reveal a man who was making strides to be a good teammate on and off the field, and above all, a family man.

She did a great job as a journalist. Really impressive. I understand there was about 20 minutes of total tape and only a couple were shown.

Hope they dig it all out and just let it play.

If anyone gets to see those, I think you get to see the real Sean Taylor.

(When you hear Wilbon, etc, don't forget the Skins and the Washington Post have been in a pssing contest ever since the Skins took away a lot of their season tix (Since they were ending up on ebay! This colors everything I read about the skins written in the Post).
