The closure thread

[GMScud]

Excellent thread FRPLG. For me personally I think closure will take a while. But Fuller's words gave me many of the same thoughts as it did you. The pain of his loss will fade, as Marcus Washington said, only with time. The way we remember him is what's important. Not too many people were blessed enough to truly know Sean, and hearing the words of his teammates and coaches has helped me to realize the gift he really was to his family, team, fans, and this world. I'll be sad for a long time, but I'm proud that a person as great as Sean was a Redskin. I know the entire organization will honor him appropriately. I've been a fan my entire life, but I've never been drawn to a player like I was with Sean.

God Bless ST.

For me I have tried to stop thinking about the years we will miss seeing him as a great player and think about the years we did get to see. I try not to think about the how much he will be missed on the team I love, but think about all the things he did do in the time he had.

Having said that, the single most biggest thing that can lead to closure in this case is finding those who committed the crime and find some kinda reason behind it.

The thing that's hard for me as a Redskins fan is that this was the season that Sean really started to scratch the surface of his greatness. If he was this good at 24, how great might he have been at 27? I can't think of another Redskin whose career evolution I wanted to watch and savor more - Taylor would have forged a place with the all-time greats at the safety position. At least with YouTube, we can look back at many of the highlights he gave us in such a short time.
