ST ‘Becomes the James Dean of the NFL’
By Jamie Mottram | November 27, 2008
Sean Taylor passed a year ago today, and his awesome legend only grows.
The Washington Post has you covered, especially with its Redskins Insider blog, which posts a poignant tribute from Mike Wise:
“I remember writing of the funeral how sad it was that we knew him better in death than in life. I still feel that way today. He lives bigger in memoriam than he did when he was alive. In another decade, Sean Taylor becomes the James Dean or Jim Morrison of the NFL – a great, young talent who was taken much too soon, a doting father who didn’t get to see his baby girl grow up.
A year later, that’s still pretty damn sad.”
R.I.P., Boom King. May your afterlife be overrun with ball-carrying punters.
