Great player. Amazing how long his team rushing record lasted.
Just saw him at Alumni Day last month. He looked pretty good.
RIP.
Top 5 Packer all-time.
RIP
Just got back in the country and this is the first news I heard. Sad!
You should have stayed where you were. Dummy.

Dumbass, you said it wrong. The correct wording is:
Why don’t you go back where you came from? You don’t belong here.

I figured that was pretty obvious. 
So how was Africa?

He spent all his time looking for a birth certificate. No time for fun.
So how was Africa?
He sought to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that he's become.
Saw both Jim Taylor and Jim Brown's jerseys at Super Bowl 32 in San Diego.
RIP Sir.

Only, I didn’t get it from X4. Nice assumption made there.

You visit sites other than x4? You dirty hussy!
Fricken sucks that he dies when I'm up here. ☹️
RIP Jim
Playing tackle football in the backyard, being big for my age and carrying other kids on my back, I always made believe I was Jim Taylor. My hero. 1962 NFL League MVP. On a team chock full of heroes, Mr Taylor was my favorite ultimate smash mouth Lombardi icon (Ray Nitschke was my close 2nd). When I heard, I chocked up. RIP Mr. Taylor.
Never been a greater confluence of talent and coaching than 1959.
RIP Jim Taylor.
I am too young to remember the Lombardi years but I did get to sit near him at the HOF game about 10 years ago when the Packers played the Chiefs. At that time he looks fantastic like he still was in playing shape.
RIP!
RIP
gimmee 22 Jim Taylors and I'll be hugging a Lombardi trophy at the end of the season.
Too young to have seen Taylor, but I remember something funny from an interview with Taylor from like 35 years ago back in 1983 where he talked about Paul Hornung (Maybe an NFL Films interview?).
Taylor started out sort of with the usual "Paul was a great player, yada yada yada". He loosened up by the end of the interview and said something like "The best thing Paul did was he got us the broads man!!". I can't say if that was the exact quote, but it was funny when I saw the interview.
I remember reading that Taylor ran marathons after his playing days, so he obviously kept active and in good shape to be doing that at his size. RIP Jim Taylor.
