    This is tragic. Even if he was married neither he nor his companion deserved to be murdered.

  • white male

    RIP air mcnair, best college quarterback ever, was at tiny Alcorn St. and was the 3rd pick in the draft. Super bad-ass football player. Toughest quarterback ever.

  • what happened to my name?

    steve mcnair came from the mississippi delta. he purchased the antebellum home where his mother worked a maid. damn, he was swirling! another black man gone too soon. he was married to a black woman who worked as a nurse. rip steve

  • Lady Star

    My husband Terry say he was one of the best so I know he was good because Terry like the Cowboys. God bless the families and hope the story dont get twisted baby because they say he was married.

  • http://bossip.com jjj / Proud Jamaican

    …Year 2009 seems to be the year of unfortunate scandals and deaths of prominent people in society… RIP

  • Ladierayz

    Obviously, his wife caught him sticking it to some tramp so Mrs. McNair decided to remind him of their wedding vows,”‘Til death do us part.” If he was at home with his wife, he would still be alive today.

  • hmmmm

    @Gymo

    YOu are absoulutey right I was thinkin mayb it was just my laptop, but my anti spyware keeps sending me pop ups while im own here saying the site is trying to give me a virus basically, so i jus press ok and it blocks it

  • Whatchaknoboutdat?

    I wonder where his wife is???

    May they both RIP….

  • Whateva

    Wow that’s messed up, he was a beast of a quarterback and from what I’m hearing from many players he was a good man as well. If he had some marital issues, I hope this had nothing to do with his wife because now there are going to be four sons without a father and a mother.

    My, aren’t we Mr. Ominous, and I do remember that post…So are these comin’ events due to some cosmic design or some evil cabal (ala The Boule, Free Mason’s, etc.)?

  • Azeron

    Steve was married and the woman who perished in the room was not his wife else they would have identified the victims as Steve McNair and wife not an unidentified female companion. What gives?

  • Yvonne

    I have never been into sports so I don’t know who this person is but my heart and prayers go out to his family.

  • Anon

    Rumor is that it was Steve’s mistress, and it was a murder-suicide. She killed him, then herself.

  • 2dimplzs

    This is sad and tragic and senseless. It didn’t have to happen. If you don’t want to be with your wife then LEAVE HER and move on! I know we’re all speculating at this point, but the fact that he died with his mistress speaks VOLUMES! Cheating brings on so many problems. Two people lost their lives senselessly so the only question I have now is WAS THE CHEATING WORTH IT? He has kids with no father now. Was it worth it? If his wife had nothing to do with the killings – she’s now a widow having to raise her kids by herself. Was the cheating worth it?????????? Folks need to get it together man…….

  • white male

    he will make the nfl hall of fame in a few years

  • Dr. Heather

    Lady Star, Your avatar is killing my soul….

    RIP, Steve.

  • starlite

    I read another report and it said the woman has been identified and it was not his wife. They are waiting to notify her nest of kin. Maybe she was married as well and it was her husband? Anyway it is such a tragedy may they RIP

    @ Anon:

    Where exactly did you hear -or read of- that rumor? I find it interesting since, in most double suicides, it is the male who finalizes the murders. If the rumor is accurate, it speaks volumes regarding their dynamic.

    May McNair rest in peace. I also extend my condolences to his loved ones.

  • Candid Canuck

    i bet that broad he was with had sumthin to do with it….. smdh….

  • Marquis de Sade

    …Well accordin’ to the news, it’s bein’ looked at as a double homicide…Could’ve been Steve’s irate, jilted wife or this woman’s irate, jilted b.f./husband. Oh well, better them than me, I always say.

  • KocaKola

    Gone way too soon…R.I.P

  • girly-girl

    It is sad to hear of anyone’s death. I live in nashville and he had just opened a resturante a couple of weeks ago. I will pray for his family and I hope his children are ok.

  • david

    I hope that broad he died with didn’t have anything to do with it. What if some dude killed ‘em both (“if you’re not going to be with me, you’re not going to be with anyone” type thing). Where is his wife? Is she a suspect?

  • Its6amHoGetOut,, Jay-Z was the bomb last night! Deep south kill yourselves right now, that nigga even rapped to a U2 song!

    Steve wasn’t with his wife, most likely he was out committing adultery. May God bless his and her souls and I hope peace is with both families.

  • gotfreckles

    Money is the root to all evil….

    NOT

    P u s s y is.

    Hope his life was worth it.
    N the end the kiddies suffer from because of his individual egoism.

  • SAVVY

    this is awful…my heart is aching…i remember steve from the auburn days…we go waaaay back. rip baby.

  • And…..(with 5 dots)

    @ Azeron,
    I just read that too. But why was the condo co-owned by McNair and some other dude named Wayne Neely. What was that about? This chick worked at Dave and Buster’s, and was just arrested for a DUI the other day. Come on now! He was messing around on his wife for this chick???????????

  • And…..(with 5 dots)

    OMG he was 16 years older than she was. He was 36 and she was only 20. WOW!!!

  • not surprised…

    Him and his Becky are now DEAD!!!

  • itz.2b.luved

    Wow! soooo very sad! RIP McNair. I wish that he would have been celebrating the holiday with his 4 sons, though!….now they are fatherless!!! I can only imagine what his sons & wife are going through!!…..why spend time with someone who is obviously broke & someone that you were obviously helping taking care of & someone who obviously work @ Dave & Busters!!!…instead of spending time with your FAMILY?!……life is way too short!!!….never put a jump-off (if that was what she was) before your own kids (your blood!!)…..the money he was spending on her, could have been spent on his FAMILY!….still, sooo very sad though (they both had 2 die in a tragic way)…..on the 4th of July, too!……I STILL FEEL SOOO VERY SORRY 4 HIS FAMILY, such a shame!!!!!!!

  • come on

    RIP Steve Mcnair! My favorite quarterback, who played for my favorite team, gone way to soon. My thoughts and prayers are with the family of the deceased.

  • Azeron

    Man! WTF is a thirty-six year old man going to do with a twenty-year old woman? Talk? That’s a generation apart. I always make fun of cradle robbers but boy did she turn the worm on his ass! Damn! Police aren’t even looking for any suspects. This is open and shut apparently.

  • ASU Stand Up

    All Alcornites, please stand up and show your support and respect for our deceased brother. All Omegas/Ques, show love as well. Rest in peace.

    Ex BF of girl is way toooooo complimentary of her and not a single comment about Steve. The article states that Steve and his wife had lived apart for 4 years and the car that the girl was arrested in was registered in both their names.

  • Mock Rock Star

    @Art of War
    So Puffy sent some “girls” over to U. Are U going to talk to them about the moon, the stars and quasars. I have something to add to your rambling: The only thing that’s real is the moment U are in right now…the past and the future is a illusion and should fall by the wayside…break ties with being so in love with yourself so that U can truly love other people

  • karen

    Hope he had a decent life insurance policy. The wife n kids need to be cared for. What did they do in this situation? The press is saying it’s a murder-suicide the girl doing the murdering. Think twice b4 you roll the dice with sum other chick n cheat on your wife, it never ends nice! God bless them/you/us all!

  • itz.2b.luved

    I hope that he had a nice insurance policy, too! I just keep thinking about his 4 young sons!…..but I do hope that the wife & kids r taken very good care of…….

  • edondada

    Sending my condolences to both families….both were victims no matter what the circumstances. “Michele’s” family lost someone too.

  • Azeron

    I just saw a picture of this woman and I’m sorry but I just don’t get it. If I saw her at Dave and Busters I would not take a second glance. What the hell was in this brother’s head? Damn, damn, DAMN!!! (Shaking my head) I just do NOT understand.

  • Mimi

    We should not feel sorry for this cheating A-hole. He should have been at home with his family.His wife didn’t even know he had a rented apartment downtown. BLACK MEN ARE JUST SORRY WHETHER RICH OR POOR!!!!!!!!! He deserved every bit of what he got.

  • GApeach

    My heart goes out to his children. They are the ones most affected by this tragic situation. McNair’s quest for happiness cost him his life and cost his children their father.

  • well

    To effing bad his heart didnt go out to his children.

  • And

    It’s a wrap, Game Over!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Leeha

    well,if steve mcnair had to leave home to find happiness(as Oshie claims), then the burning question is…Is he happy now?

  • Candy Barr

    As Azeron said, who in the hell would even take a second look at that chick? Not attractive at all . . . I did a search for her name, and it appears to be a name from Afghanistan, not a white name. I am finding some sites that show other photos of her.

  • http://urbanfrugalchic.com Cynthia

    This is so terrible-How sad

  • GApeach

    Ok I stand corrected her ex killed them.

  • cali

    whatever her (non-black)color, they’re both DOA now.

  • Read between the lies

    The ex boyfriend did it: This is extremely important!! Can someone please tell me how a friend of this girl’s exboyfriend (Keith Norfleet) knew this girl was dead TWO days before her body was found? If you don’t believe me look at his myspace page where he says R.I.P. to the girl, and his last log-in date of July 2nd. http://www.myspace.com/postedinthaoch How could know she was dead 2 days earlier? Notice he also mentions McNair in a disparaging way and how he’s hurting for his friend, in his ‘mood’. Someone please turn this over to the Nashville police. This guy knew this girl was dead on July 2nd.

    2. Steve has been a cheater for a very long time so trust me he wife isn’t surprised about the mistress, just his death, it just may be harder for her because of the way it happened

  • Fernand

    Death is death so please haters do not get a kick out of this we should show sympathy for the families of the dead whether they are black or white. On the other hand if the killer can be caught then I hope he/she gets a long stay in jail.

  • Ok

    This is what one of the many outcomes can be when you cheat! I dont mean to speak ill of this situation, especially since he died, but reality is, he was too busy with his jumpoff! He should have stayed home with his family! Now his wife has to bury her husband and his children will be without a father because he decided to have a jumpoff! The news was reporting it was a murder suicide! SMH… Im not meaning to speculate but Im sure he tried to break it off and she wasnt having it! I will keep his family in my prayers!

  • Ok

    @ 6am- you said what I said… except I said it nicer LOL (as ususal) :)

  • Chocolateduchess

    He recv’d 10 fold don’t think your going to cheat and it not come back on you. He possible tried to break off with the female after she got pulled over the other night and charge with that DUI. She put it to his doom and realized what she did and pull to her own doom and let go. Sad……may god be with his family.

  • Sydney™

    What a tragic story. . .The Tennessean, tennessean.com, has more details on the shooting and the circumstances surrounding McNair’s extramarital affair with a 20-year-old waitress he met at Dave & Buster’s. Police officials expect to have more details after the autopsies are completed. Neighbors said they heard arguments between McNair and Sahel Kazemi, and she was arrested Thursday for a DUI in a 2007 Cadillac Escalade that he apparently bought for her. McNair was also in the car, but police allowed him to take a cab home.

    I feel for his wife, who is reportedly distraught, of course, and his four children. How do you explain to his boys that their father was found dead with his mistress?

    Sad.

  • asil

    they were both murdered by her family , mafia think about it

  • http://kimricks@hotmail.com ATLien

    Wow! Please don’t cheat and respect each other. As usual, it’s not worth a life being taken. Poor kids and wife. Now she’s going to be at the funeral not knowing whether to grieve or hate the bastard for putting himself in such a position to be taken away from their lives..Soo sad and messed up. Mrs. McNair is sure to be on an emotional roller coaster…God Bless them.

  • CF98

    I was not a fan of Steve McNair that being said he didn’t deserve to die over adultery either and its a tragedy that it cost him his life. Not to mention we don’t know if he and his wife have an “arrangement” like so many “others” do in the NFL.

    Should he have messed around? No but that doesn’t mean he deserved to die.

    But

  • sexzlady

    Wow sad news, RIP
