Just received a statement from the owner of the team:

Short and to the point. What else can be said? This is going to be a long, long healing process for his family and for the Skins

Sickening, sad and overwhelming from all angles.

#21 will never be forgotten.

Sunday will be more emotional than anything we've all experienced with the Redskins. This tragic event will change the landscape of the Redskins forever.

RIP #21

Never will be forgotten

This is an unspeakable tragedy! My prayer's go out to Sean's family, friends and fans. With my faith and trust in God, I must believe that everything happens for a reason and GOD has a bigger plan in store. Sean you will truly be missed not only for the extrodinary player that you were, but for the extrodinary person that you were.

As much as I want to believe Snyder, my money is on his looking forward to Sunday and watching his registers ring up all the sales of #21 paraphenalia.

Snyder has been very subdued over the last 24 hours. He hasn't placed himself in the limelight and he has put himself at the service of the team, the players, and the Taylor family. Danny was a fan like us before he was the owner. He's hurting today as well.

I sorta wish Dan Snyder would have offered a more personal, heartfelt comment instead of this stock statement. I understand no one ever really knows what to say or do in these situations and that sometimes less is more, but surely he must have some personal thoughts about Sean Taylor as a human being, a player, a friend.

It is shocking and sad, but Dan referring to it as the "worst imaginable tragedy" is well over-stated. Hey Dan, remember 9/11?
