dolly parton said the secret to her success she felt she was born with a happy heart. I think steve is about the only other person I would apply that to as well. He did so much charity work and when FEMA fuc**ed it up on Katina he and brett favre paid for and helped loaded 6 semi’s at LP field and he followed them down to MS and personally unloaded them. His expolits on the football field pale in comparison to his charity works and brother that aint no easy thing to do.

@raoul — we don’t know the state of McNair’s marriage or the circumstances of his relationship with Kazemi. People fall out of love in marriages, and while the scenarios scream “murder-suicide”, it’s still jumping to conclusions until the police make an official statement about it.

capital offense*

Although it shouldn’t be a capitol offense either, whatever the hell that is.

He shouldn’t have been there, sure, but it also shouldn’t have been a capitol offense.
It’s wrong, but it seems different in the context of the NFL where this is merely par for the course.

Maybe Steve McNair didn’t “deserve” it, but he darn sure chose adultery with a woman young enough to be his daughter.

The man had four kids and a wife. He dies at the hand of his mistress, whom he met at a Dave and Busters.

Somewhere in there, McNair, I dunno, kinda/sorta made a really bad choice. And he paid for it. He should have never been there. It’s his fault – and only his – that he was involved with the woman at all.

It’s not a comforting truth. But it is the truth. I know we’d rather sit around now and talk about what a great guy he is. But his kids have no dad now. And, fundamentally, that’s Steve McNair’s fault. You shouldn’t cheat on your wife, and you shouldn’t cheat on your wife with a girl who’s practically a teenager.

Maybe McNair should be a cautionary tale instead.

That’s right, I can cook. and spell and all that other stuff. Leave the coking to me. I am confused by all your words referring to remembering people based on things less tangible. How can you throw food under the bus like that? It’ll get run over. Then how can I eat it?

What is sad about this?

-Sad that four kids won’t have a Dad next Father’s Day?
-Sad that a kid who rose from where Steve did to achieve the things on the field that he did has his life ended in such a fashion?

I’d say that covers it.

Obtw, little ed, may the fleas of 1000 camels infest your nether regions.

Kenny Loggins, I saw the story in the last link before it went away, it was a standard-issue news report but it was followed up by the typical boatload of moronic comments about McNair being a pedophile (for dating a 20-year old!) and other such nonsense. That’s probably why it was taken down. So, Orson was doubly correct, he didn’t deserve what happened in the story or the comments, either…

I’m not ashamed to say I loved “Air” McNair, had his jersey, and was utterly crushed for him when they lost the Super Bowl. I also lived in Nashville for a spell and remember how beloved and respected he was in life. I only hope, in spite of the circumstances, he can also be afforded that respect in death.

As for Big Ed’s [hair]plugs? Oh hell, what do you expect from an Aubarn fan?

Ed, are you serious?

If you were as talented and insightful of a writer as our fearless leader Orson, you wouldn’t have to crow-bar your website plugs into a superior website’s comments section. Pretty lame…

Oh, and fuck Auburn.

Classy plug there, Big Ed. Timing is everything in comedy, right?

RIP Air McNair. As a player, he will be remembered for his toughness, poise and ability to lead. He had everything a QB needed to succeed.

I feel for his kids… we can only hope that he “brought it” just as much at home as he did on the field. Nobody deserves that to happen to their dad, athlete or not.

Guys, you are one of the inspration for my site, but I completely disagree with you on George’s comment. I’m a cook, and would luv to be remembered like that!!
Here is my take, and stick around for more good content.
I was born and raised in the ATL, your home base, and I went to AU, so f— the Dawgs and f— the Gators!!

RIP Steve.

The last link was broken. What did that newspaper do that was so distasteful? I hope it wasn’t crime scene photos. Whatever it was, it has been taken down.
