On a much more serious note, Sean Taylor's funeral was held yesterday at the University of Miami. 1000's of people showed up. Many great eulogies were spoken but one that touched me most was former NFL linebacker Lavar Arrington's moving depiction of what Taylor was to him and furthermore what his teammates meant to him. What made his eulogy (featured below) so touching is that this was the first time Lavar spoke publicly since his own personal dance with death. in June of this past summer, Lavar, was in a terrible motocycle accident that forced the former Redskin and Giant to retire from the game in september. Lavar was in tears when speaking about what the comrodery of his teammates meant to him and what Taylor whom he called his Guardian Angel, meant to him. In the midst of many eulogies from many former famous canes and NFL players who saw no reason to take off their sunglasses (cough clinton cough) at their friends funeral, here was a man, once considered the best at his position, fall from the top, land on the bottom with his priorities in check.



I don't feel the need to go into the Sean Taylor case. As polorized as it has become, I don't feel adding my two cents to the matter will do any good. Rest in Peace Sean Taylor...
