As a Redskins fan, I can't tell you how much this means.

As a fan base we loved Sean more than any other player, I think because we had the chance to watch him grow and change right in front of our eyes. Our troublemaker was growing as a good person and a player and it was a joy to watch. He was only 24.

Seeing his life cut short like this is unbelievably hard. Whatever you think of him as a person, Sean adored his little girl and knowing she isn't going to get to know him is maybe the hardest thing of all.

So, beyond rivalries and football and teams, all I can say is that knowing there are good people out there, honoring him and seeing what a terrible, sad thing this is means a lot in the face of such a senseless act of violence.

I think, this Thursday I'll be rooting for the Cowboys for the first time in my life. You guys have been unbelievable and made it hard, at least temporarily, to wish you anything but the best.

Silly, I know, but I'm proudly wearing a maroon shirt today.

Thanks for changing the site. Looks great.

Very CLASSY!

RIP Sean Taylor
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this, a most tragic happening.

He was way too young to die

Another 'Skins fan here. I've been a member for a while, and have always enjoyed getting your side of things. When I came on today to check it out, I got really choked up.

Thanks.

Wow. That's very touching.
I can't even tell you how this makes me feel.

Coming on to this board and seeing the level of class and respect for each other that has been shown over the past 30 hours or so...makes my heart sink even more.

In all the years I have been coming to this board, we have all had our moments of banter and trash talk. Which has at times been childish and just ignorant even, when put into perspective compared to a tragedy like this.

I want to personally put out a Thank You to the CowboysZone community, from the Admins to the lurkers that only post once a month, for the level of maturity and emotional support that I have read and felt over here these last 2 days.

Sincerely, S&T. Much love for you guys. Thanks.

This is such a senseless loss, .. I feel pain for his parents, his wife and his family.

A sad moment.

Kudos to the CowboysZone for reaching out.

Good job Reality. Rest in peace Sean. I am proud to be a member of this forum.
"... in the scouting/front office communities, Cowboyszone is considered to be the best fan site in the NFL by a pretty wide margin, and is considered to be right up there with the best fan sites in all of sports. You'd be floored by some of the people who have accounts here, and regularly check this site. You might be careful spouting off too many crazy opinions, you could have real NFL GMs with multiple Super Bowl rings laughing at you."

I cannot actually ever remember being prouder of Cowboys fans than I am at this moment. The comments of support and sympathy for Sean Taylor, his family and other Redskins' fans have been numerous.

While we are great rivals with the Redskins, today we stand with them.

Rest in peace, Sean Taylor!
We are fans of the football nation...this nonsense that keeps happening has to stop!!! RIP Sean Taylor
