Wat is up wit Sean Taylor?

Sean Taylor got wasted, nd it is sad, I mean I'm not making fun of this incident, but he got shot, like many other people in the ghetto...why is everyone lamenting over this one overpaid football guy, just because he's a sports star, everyone praises him and acts like he's Jesus or somebody like that. He's just a person like any other; TALENTED, yes, but that doesn't make him more important or higher than anyone else. As far as I'm concerned, the person who robbed this Redskins guy was poor and was only acting to feed his starving family (NOT justifying the crime, but thas the way it is.)
