Big Media blew it

Update: http://www.charlotte.com/sports/story/387509.html
Here's a little bit of accountability. Even Time magazine did a negative piece.

Sean Taylor Greatest Hits

Apparently, the event had nothing to do with Sean Taylor's past. Now what will media say? They can no longer place blame on him. I think some accountability is necessary. They metaphorically desecrated a man's grave. Will we see a new slew of articles addressing the 20 year old problem that society has chosen to ignore? I doubt it. We got to learn about each and every bad thing that Sean did in his life. Can we hear some good things about him by from Big Media? Where are you at Banks, King, Dohrman, Whitlock? All summer, Goodell wanted to eradicate guns from NFL players. Yet he does nothing for their safety. If they felt safe, they wouldn't need guns correct? Sean Taylor used to have pit bulls for protection in his affluent neighborhood. Why did he get rid of them? Because of everyone's obsession with Mike's dogfighting, people who used dogs for protection were seen as evil. I wish Sean had kept a gun in his house and those pit bulls in the yard. I hope the media will take the time to understand why athlete's do what they do, instead of condemn them in attempt to gain control. I am glad they found the killers. But America needs to recognize that athletes are targetted by the have-nots. People protecting themselves should not be viewed as evil especially when society has ignored the problem which causes that insecurity. President Bush has plenty of time to announce that Barry Bond's issue was a sad day in baseball, but hasn't said a word about the fact that Washington DC is the Homicide Capital of America. Sean was not targeted for murder, but his success was a target and his life was lost in the process. Maybe now he can be seen for what he is, a victim. RIP
