Antrel Rolle speaks about Taylor, plans to honor him

[GMScud]

A good article about Antrel Rolle's reaction. He does make some disturbing statements about Taylor having "many enemies" in Miami.

Sadly it wouldn't be surprising if he was targeted.

Either way, it really doesn't matter if he was an innocent victim or if this was something from his past coming back to haunt him. It's a tragedy any way you look at it.

If Rolle is so sure Sean had lots of "enemies," maybe he can give some names to police to help aid the investigation.

If he was a target it makes it even more sad IMO. The fact that someone would deliberately seek him out to harm him is sickening.

Antrel made a lot of sense, the police say is seems to be a "random act" but he was definately targeted... Im glad his gonna show his respect to Taylor this weekend as many will.

Obviously I have no idea if any of this is the case. However, I can say that guttertrash never likes to see someone they know succeed in life. If anything, I think if this is the case it just shows that people who called him a thug are so far off. He distanced himself from people who would drag himself and his family down. Isn't that what you are supposed to do?

I don't think there is a person in law enforcement down there who thinks this was random, they could be throwing that out there to hopefully take the guard down a little on the perpetrators, which I am sure they already have a list of possible suspects who Taylor had past associations with.

Breaking in a week earlier and leaving a knife on his pillow? Come on how much of a coincidence could that possibly be! Someone was out to teach him a lesson on why you should never leave the hood.

I've always been a semi-closeted cardinals fan in addition to the skins. This just makes it easier to have a "second" team.

I absolutely loved the Rolle article. I read it last night; I loved when he said that his #21 is Sean's 21 and every play he makes, Sean will be remembered.

I also liked when he mentioned about playing against Sean

Great article.

Good article, one part in particular disturbs me: "but I know he lived his life pretty much scared every day of his life when he was down in Miami because those people were targeting him."

If that's true, why would Taylor be in Miami at all, or at least without some sort of security.

I pondered the same things when I read that; the whole thing made me feel uneasy. He must have felt there was someone after him

maybe Rolle shouldnt have spoken out about this because if Rolle can say he had Enemies and Jealous people coming after him,seems like he knows who they are and he just aired them out Publically..He needs to give names or locations anything to go off of because now he just put himself out there and for him to call Sean a friend and then not give names of a possible Killer thats ridiculus right there

I don't think that he really put himself out there. Just because he is a friend of Sean doesen't mean he knows who said enemies might be. Sean might have just told him that he though he had enemies and he is going off that. I think that everyone has "enemies" and I could give you a name of a person who has "enemies" doesen't mean I can list them.

On the other hand, if he does know some people who could be culprits he should definitely let the authorities know.

[skins268]

sounded pretty sure who they were otherwise why speculate about your friends murder? I do think he put himself out there because when you say things like people wanted to get him,you have to have some kind of proof behind that or sit down and shut it because Sean is Dead and I doubt he wants to be next for talking.

Who is to say Rolle hasn't said anything to the police or someone who can pass the information to the police? It could be kind of dumb for him to say I know who it was and it's (fill in the blank) to the entire public.
