Steve McNair Shot to Death

[dolphins4life]

On the comments in SB XXXIV:

If the Titans had scored, it probably would have been to their advantage to kick the PAT.  In OT, if they had won the toss, they would have been facing an exhausted Rams defense, and if they had lost it, they would have been facing a Rams offense whom they had shut down the entire second half with the exception of the one play scoring drive. 

On Steve McNair:

RIP.  I loved watching you play and consider myself fortunate to have been able to see you in action.  Even though I remember you lighting up my beloved Dolphins a couple of times, you exemplified courage, toughness, and talent on a football field.  You will be missed.

They're calling it a Homicide still at this point, I'll wait until the autopsy comes out and see what they say though.

WTF?! I come home after having spent the weekend with family (and no Internet, cell, TV, radio or anything) and Steve McNair has been freakin' murdered?

Holy crap. That's... shocking... I'm... I don't know, you just don't expect that kind of stuff.

He had such a clean rep, no problems in the news and now it seems he could have had a little 'action' going on and she may have flipped out. Women are crazy*, and when you're a celeb, they are even worse.

From a story on CNN I read earlier, the wife isn't a suspect, it was strongly suggesting murder-suicide.

What else would it be?  You  don't think two people accidently got shot do you?   

[SportsChick]

Um, the wife went nuts? That's why I said that the wife isn't a suspect

[bsfins]

Hmm anyone else suspect an ex Boy friend...4 shots to Steve,one to her....

[SCFinfan]

I've heard it may have been an honor killing by an angry family member.

Honor Killing?  I've heard of a mercy killing, but not an honor killing.

I love Steve McNair and all the toughness he brought to the game. After we recongnize his accomplishments on the field, the fact remains he was fooling around on his wife. Know his widow must raise 4 boys without a strong male figure around.

This has all the makings of a young lady who gotten tired of broken promises and was tired of playing second fiddle and killed mcnair and then turned the gun on herself. Know woman is worth my family. Steve you did alot for erasing the sterotype that african-americans couldn't play the QB position in the NFL. You came from a small black college (Alcorn st),but you screwed  your wife and your family. Somehow that will be lost as honor his career, but it's the wife and the kids who are really suffering and need the support. RIP STEVE.

Doesn't matter if it was the local girl scout who was pissed about not getting paid for her cookies. An autopsy ain't gonna change it from a Homicide. Someone killed them.........


Its looking more and more like his girlfriend was a crazy bitch. He took four bullets sitting in a chair and she had one , and was found with the gun under her.  I bet alot of NFL players are looking at the women in their lives a bit differently tonight.

It certainly looks like the girlfriend shot him, she's only got one bullet in her and she supposedly fell on the gun which is a likely indicator of suicide after shooting him, but like I said there's no autopsy on her yet so until they determine which angle she got shot from we won't know.

We don't know what?   No one is gonna jump on you if you just admit it looks like a Murder suicide. Let it go Bro. What are you holding out for? Hoping that it turns out to be some evil plot put together by a deranged Colts fan so you can prance around saying.......I knew it! I knew it! Look at how smart I am!   

Its a Murder suicide.  Sad but true. Chick saw the McNair money train coming to a halt and she flipped. deal with it.

Easy there Defense.  You're the one flying off the handle.  BigDaddyFin is right.  Although it does look like a murder/suicide, we can't be CERTAIN until forensics completes its analysis and an autopsy is done on her. 

I hope this makes other athletes think twice before they decide to step out on their wives.
