<!-- date header ends here -->Sean Taylor "Clinging To Life"
</MTWEBLOGPOSTIFSHOW>[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]Richard Sharpstein, who has represented Sean Taylor in legal matters in the past and is a friend of the family, said moments ago that the player's life is hanging in the balance in the hospital. Sharpstein, speaking from the hospital, said Taylor is "nonresponsive and unconscious" and the doctors are "worried about a possible brain injury or death."[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]Sharpstein, who has been with Taylor's family at the hospital much of the day, said that there are major worries that Taylor may have lost oxygen to the brain, and that no other procedures are planned for right now. "They're waiting to see if he comes to," Sharpstein said. He was shot in the groin/thigh area near the femoral artery and lost copious amounts of blood. He was airlifted to the trauma center and endured several hours of surgery, Sharpstein said.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]Taylor is in intensive care, Sharpstein said, and his girlfriend and child were not injured in the attack. Sharpstein said Taylor was sleeping when he heard a noise in the living room. The intruders were at his bedroom and Taylor reached for a machete or other form of knife he keeps nearby in case of emergency, and two shots were fired, with one striking his leg.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]"Right now he's clinging to life and we're all praying he makes it," Sharpstein said.[/FONT]

This definately sounds more like a "hit" than a random burglery 
Prays to him. I hope he makes it.

So Sad I hope he makes it.

Robber guy went to his bedroom. Why not rummage around the house for valuables if its a robbery :shrug: Why go to the room you know people are in and occupying :shrug:. Guessing by the numerous cars in the driveway from family and gf being there, it was obvious people were there and home :shrug:. It sounds like they made some noise (maybe tripped in the living room) and went straight to the bedroom. They also didn't steal anything.Hitmen don't shoot someone in the leg. Just because it happened to be a serious injury doesn't mean it is more than a robbery. If it were a head or chest shot, then I could see calling it a hit.
A leg shot sounds like he surprised somebody and they took a couple of wild shots, nothing more sinister than that.

...so Shawn the spitter got his, right?I would assume that someone that resolves conflict by spitting on someone is a thug.. and probably hangs out with the same ilk..
Are you related to this guy or something? You seem to be very very concerned for his welfare and very adament that he's a standup guy, felony assault charges notwithstanding....so Shawn the spitter got his, right?
I'm not talking Sopranos or anything professional like "an Assassin"....Taylor was going after them with the machette and they shot and fled.
So, yeah, we're not talking ASSASSIN here.
Just someone trying and very inexperienced. That's my guess on this because he was brazen to rob a home that was occupied (by a probowl NFL player at that), go to the master bedroom while occupied, shot someone a few times in the dark, and then not take anything :shrug:.Sean the thug, Sean the spitter, Sean the felon.. It all points to him being no more than a thug....so Shawn the spitter got his, right?
Hell he could have called up his buddy Vick and bought some of his dogs for protectionSean the thug, Sean the spitter, Sean the felon.. It all points to him being no more than a thug.
He's a MULTI Millionaire am I right??
So he can't own a gun, so what.. can he afford a GOOD secrutiy system?? Can he afford to hire someone that CAN own a gun??
Could his girlfriend own a gun?

Probably could have got them for free even!!Hell he could have called up his buddy Vick and bought some of his dogs for protection![]()
...we'll put you down as another satisfied customer of Shawn Taylors day.Sean the thug, Sean the spitter, Sean the felon.. It all points to him being no more than a thug.

..you should ask that. I was gonna ask what he did to you that was so personal.Are you related to this guy or something? You seem to be very very concerned for his welfare and very adament that he's a standup guy, felony assault charges notwithstanding.

Are you kidding? Burglars do that all the time. Twice on Sunday, even. Young Sean (not to be confused with Sean Young) was probably just getting home from choir practice and was getting ready to go off and feed the homeless. Maybe save a whale or two.That's my guess on this because he was brazen to rob a home that was occupied (by a probowl NFL player at that), go to the master bedroom while occupied, shot someone a few times in the dark, and then not take anything .
You are starting to lose it...you should ask that. I was gonna ask what he did to you that was so personal.
