Congrats Mark, as NBC4 was panning to commercial, they showed your tribute... full page and everything.

Anyone know how to get in touch with a member of the skisn front office?

I think a honoring tribute would be for when the defense comes out for their first play of the game to only send 10 men out and leave the S position open. There would be someway for the PA guy to announce what is happening and there could be a standing ovation for the 35 play clock and take the 5 yd pent. for not enough men on the field (maybe the bills will decline)

Gret idea but I don't think there is a penalty for too few players. I gave up my tickets this year because of cost, distance and lackluster performance but I would give anything to sit in those seats this Sunday - crying like a baby.

Take a look at this link:

http://video.nbc4.com/player/?id=189298

Might see something familiar at about the 00:16 mark.

The things that THN has done to honor Sean are not done for our glory, but I am personally proud of BH's effort and that it has received a more national audience.

Honestly... just the toughest thing I've ever done on the computer... the song makes me reflect regardless, putting images to it was very difficult.

But hopefully the pain and the sorrow that you might go through watching it will help the grieving process.

I'm not an overly emotional guy, but making the movie had me sobbing.


It's your tribute but I found a rare picture of Sean smiling and thought you might like to add it to your slideshow. It's certainly how I want to remember him.

My My 2 cents

Downloaded a vid, split it up and rearranged some of the clips, and set it to a little Hanz Zimmer (Batman Begins theme).

Taylor was a baaad mutha.

You know... you were a real jerkoff when you came in here. I know you won't see it that way... but you were... you spoke only in superlatives and hyperbole knowing full well that it would create conflict... that's just being a jerk.

But over a bit of time, you started to make more meaningful contributions in other forums and being less combative.

And with the senseless tragedy came nothing but compassion and a complete respect for the situation.

i truly appreciate that and I thank-you.

You've also shown that you can contribute more than just being an ass in football conversations and are a decent person. I would just put to you that there are some very mature readers here that thrive on good conversation - even with the 'enemy'. We joined the F2FA because I really WANTED an environment where people could truly get the fans' take on whoever we were playing that week... largely due to my lack of faith in the mainstream media. Unfortunately, the alliance brings more senseless BS than good conversation.

Truth is, a lot of us really like balanced, intelligent conversations and absolutley detest the childish bickering of back-and-forth rhetoric. Creating enemies and being a dink to people makes that near impossible sometimes... especially when it's so unoriginal and prevalent in our constant encounters with the opposition due to the alliance.

Anyone can be a jerk... very few have managed to be an oppositional remember that is respected.

Why take the easy way out?

The respectful you is a welcome member to this community and will be treated as such.

And thanks for honoring ST and Redskin fans by being civil and compassionate.
Sean Taylor was one of a kind, may he rest in peace.

I just want to echo the sentiment expressed by BH, I (obviously) had some issues with you at the outset but you've proven you can be a valuable member of this forum. Great video man, thank you.

Boss, NC, BG, Evilhog, and anyone I'm forgetting who has put something together...I at a loss, stumbling only to say thank you for visually expressing what many of us cannot put into words. Mourning becomes somewhat bearable when we can enjoy his life even in death.

First off Great Job on the Front page, everytime I go to the site and the front page loads I try and go straight to the forums, It still makes me well up everytime I hear the opening chords of the song... i know it's been a few days, but it still hurts just as much. God bless the taylor family, my heart goes out to his girlfriend and daughter.
