The difference is those kids and other law abiding respectful human beings do not put themselves into those predicaments on a regular basis. I really do like Sean Taylor the football player, but if we find out that he had put himself in another bad situation then he deserves whatever the consequences of his poor actions may be.

So let me understand being at home with your girl and your little baby is testing fate? I guess I'm next to get shot !! Because I'm home tested my fate every night.

This is terrible news and I'd wait 'till more news comes out but technically he could've done something before that led to this. Anyway forget this, just wait for the facts to come out.

All we know right now is that Taylor was shot and hopefully he pulls through.

This home invasion business, especially of pro-athletes, is getting out of control.

If I made the money these guys did I would probably invest in a full-time security guard or two for when I'm home.

Cut that crap out Erod, last warning. Wait until the facts come out before saying its highly unlikely.

Multiple houses. A bunch of the big name Redskins have small houses or condos in the DC area during the season and have their main house in FL.

At nightclubs, it's even worse. When there is a pro athlete at a club I go to, there is almost ALWAYS trouble and most of the time all the athlete wants to do is chill. A friend of mine that is a star in the NFL doesn't even go out at night anymore because all of the trouble here. He just stays home or goes to a movie or the mall with his girl.
