Players streaming off the Field did no to know How bad it was. Players usually done to. They re so involved with their own jobs they see Little. They re so involved with their own mortality they feel Little for someone else. Except for those giants who stood Over him As Lawrence Taylor screamed in pain. They quickly summoned the doctor.

Probably its the end of the career of the Man who remade the hearts of his teammates who rebuilt the giants who reconstructed the template of linebacker into his own image. He could never give himself to the rehabilitation to come Back As just another player. A the was by far the greatest player in be Ever coached a Bill Parcells their super bowl coach said. A Well tee was just Ell tee a said fullback Ottis Anderson who knew Taylor As opponent teammate and work of Art. A a it a a Picasso that was torn a he said. A a in la Tell you what the Guy is so talented he set the stage for what the new linebackers were All about. He a the founder. He set the plateau that will be emulated but not surgery to repair a torn Achilles Tendon is scheduled for today. Of course the doctor could repair it he has done it Many times before. Six months of hard work and they re fit again. Except Taylor is 33 years old and battered by 12 years of being the target. A it tends to happen in older athletes a the doctor said. A tendons Teno to stretch less As you with 1 14 left in the third Quarter Taylor put one of his rushes on Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre reached and deflected the pass.

As they stood Over him it looked so much like the awful moment in Washington when Joe Theismann a leg was shattered by the Force of Taylor a tackle and Taylor screamed for help at the sight of what he had wrought. Except that there was no Impact Here. A usually its just High Load and the Tendon pops a Warren said. Linebacker Pepper Johnson was one of those standing Over Taylor when he screamed. A i had to run away a he said. All week Taylor had been being Ell tee no. 56, exhorting them not to Back off the emotion that had carried them Over the redskins last week. Friday he called a team meeting. Sunday he shouted through the lethargy not to wait until the third Quarter to get going. He wanted this game he wanted this season to be some Abyna injury probably 86s career of no. 56, Lawrence Taylor. Thing better. It was to be his Send off. A the wants to go out in style like everybody else a said or. Warren who himself had a tryout with the giants in 1962. Players in the clutch around Taylor Are used to cries of pain. Usually they say it Means Only pain. They live with pain All the time. This time they heard Taylor cry out of no i done to believe and they knew. For so Many years they a seen Taylor take withering pain and come Back into the game. The 13-12 Victory at new Orleans in 1988 they remembered. A the had a shoulder out and the other one went Down a Anderson said. A they carried him off and he said a strap me a the went Back and played and we ended up winning. It was so emotional. The Man had so much ability to tolerate for so Many years when Lawrence Taylor spoke the giants responded. He was the Heartstrings of this team and Parcells played them like a violin. Head shout at Taylor and Taylor would absorb it and the others knew it the coach could be so furious at Ell tee nobody was Safe. A him and Parcells had a special relationship a Anderson said. A watching it was unique different. They had their fights like husband and wife. They had their Bond. A they played to each other. Parcells knew How to turn Lawrence Taylor on and How to turn him off and Lawrence Taylor knew How to press his buttons he was their player. Center Bart Oates called the loss a devastating. Lawrence Taylor Wasny to the player who devastated games anymore. The giants have to replace him now instead of in August. What he had done was leave giant footprints on All of them.
