The Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor died on November 27th. He was an incredible player who played in the pro-bowl, which recognizes the best players in the league, a number of times. He was 24 years old when he died. He was killed during an attempted robbery at his Miami home. Four people have been arrested as suspects. The investigators of the trial think the robbery and the killing may have been related to an altercation involving Taylor in Miami back in 2005. If this is the case, then it is another case of troublesome athletes. He may have been the vicitim back in 2005 as well but it also may be involved with the crews people grow up with and continue to have around when an athlete becomes famous. The posse Vick hung around ended his football career and possibly so did Taylor’s. Athletes are blessesd with talent and they should not waste it. Athletes need to learn from all of the examples of troublesome friends and athletes and they need to see it and become a good role model.
