Sean Taylor Retired Number Petition

[courtney07]

Hey, this forum is filled with people paying their respects and remembering Sean Taylor so I think if you haven't seen this already, you'll want to.

There's a petition online that will go to Dan Snyder, and it's to retire #21.
You can find it by clicking HERE

AND PLEASE POST THIS LINK ANYWHERE YOU CAN THINK OF!

I know Sean wasn't on the team long enough to consider being a retired jersey, but looking at all he's accomplished in such a short time, you can only imagine what he could have done in the years to come. Please help honor him, and get him to live on the football field forever [where he wanted to be].

Afterall, no one will ever wear that #21 the way he did.

Sign the Petition

My brother has grown up loving this team and Sean has been his new favorite player... he found this petition last night, so I've been trying to get the link circulating everywhere so people know it's out there and sign it.

I pray the Redskin Org. will take this thought into deep* consideration.

does anyone know if this has been brought to the attention of extremeskins, hogs.net, or any of our fellow skins fan sites?

[Smooter]

Signed.

[Texanskin]

Done. I have NO problem retiring the "reapers" number.
He was a true core Redskin. If any else were to wear that number, the
pressure would be to great.

I don't think so.. I don't watch much Pro; I'm more into college football.. but I liked watching Sean play and I'm doing this because my brother loved him and is a die hard Redskins fan.

If you're joined to any of those forums, please please get this link out to them!!

He wasnt great enough long enough and many other Skins that actually won super bowls and were great for many years deserve to have their numbers retired before he does. I cant support retiring someone's number on what they might have done.

Good luck with your petition.

well thanks for letting us know you don't support the idea... we were all awaiting your response with baited breath....

I have to echo this sentiment. I realize this is a tragedy... but I would say Art Monk, Sonny, DG, Riggo and several others would be more deserving of that honor.

No problem. I didnt think anyone cared what I thought but obviously you were waiting to hear my opinion. Thanks.

point is, not signing the petition is stating your opinion enough... trying to spark a debate about how you don't feel a man that has just passed stands up to your standards enough to be honored by the organization he represented is unnecessary.
