You are one sick person and with that attitude it should have been you at least he contributed to something in his life. Bitter, angry, sick foos like you don't deserve to live.

You are an IDIOT for saying that.  Your day will come as well though.

So Many Memories  Rick Cleveland, Jackson (MS) Clarion Ledger writes:

The first time these eyes saw Steve McNair was 21 years ago this fall. He was 16 years young, and he was, in a word, special.

McNair played that day in a state championship football game for Mount Olive, and he never came off the field for a rest. He kicked off, through the end zone, to start the game. He threw passes; he intercepted a pass; he threw for a touchdown; he ran for a touchdown; he made almost every tackle; he punted; and he returned kicks and punts. He won the game almost single-handedly.

You didn't have to be Bear Bryant, Eddie Robinson or Vince Lombardi that day to know you were watching someone special. He played quarterback and safety, but he would have been the best player on the field at any position. He was that gifted.

Those memories came flooding back Saturday afternoon when I heard the shocking news that Steve "Air" McNair was dead, apparently murdered.

Like freddie Rock said, my hopes goes out to the young kids&wife. Steve McNair, you are ungrateful, and even though people may say you paid the price, i believe that is not true. Seriously, you should have live on even though you cheated; face the truth. Anybody can die anytime, but living is courage. Goodluck whereever you are though.

I just want to say to his family it will take a day at a time.This is no way, any wife want to hear about her husband being killed. May God Bless you and your children to get through this hard time. Just pray every chance you get,because God is the only one to lean on right now and the only one to get you threw this. Just remember "God will not put more on you than you can bare."

I heard he died from a gunshot wound to the head.What is wrong with people these days.My heart goes out to his family R.I.P STEVE McNAIR!!!

U FUCKING IDIOT!!

U R SUCH A DAMN ASSHOLE! I WISH YOUR ASS WOULD DIE NOW! HOW CAN YOU BE SO DAMN INSENSITIVE, MAYBE SOMEONE NEED TO COME SHOOT YOUR ASS!

better him then me

--  Would probably have been better if it was you.  I'm sure at least Steve McNair would have known how to spell better than you...  how about "better him THAN me."  Learn English a little better if you want to run your mouth...

and you can't spell

thats a REAL jackass thing to say

Could be "better him - THEN me next."

i wonder if he was messing with some dude's woman.  

i wonder if he was messing with some dude's woman which lead to a crime of passion.

What a shock.

Air McNair is a legend around these parts.  I feel like I've lost a friend.

How sad. 

Local reactions

“He set goals. You could tell he was serious about what he was doing, and I knew he was going to do something with himself,” Williams, 32, said.
Despite making it to the NFL, McNair never forgot his Mississippi roots and his old friends.

“He was a down-to-earth country person,” Williams said. “Every time he came back home, he’d throw (a party) around the way and he’d invite everybody.”
Williams said his heart stopped for a second when heard the news of McNair’s violent death.

“It hurt me to my heart. I thought it couldn’t be Steve,” he said. “For him to be such a good guy and for something like this to happen, it’s going to affect a lot of people.”

Thanks for this.
