Steve McNair dead

Just a headline on CNN. No other details.

Shot to death. Along with some woman.

Report: Former Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair found dead of gunshot wound - ESPN

My guess is just a random robbery gone wrong.

In the head at a hotel room raises some questions. Usually robberies are body shots, not head.

Oh, it was in a hotel? Sounded like it was in a car. So more like a targetted robbery gone wrong. I don't see McNair with any mortal enemies ordering a hit on him. Maybe a hotel room invasion. Either way, I hope they uncover it all. I always enjoyed watching him play back in the day.

Fucking hell. Mcnair WAS the Titans and along with Fisher and his mustache embodies the team and what it means to this region. He is also my favorite player ever. Motherfucker. He wasn't the kind of runner VY or Vick are, but he was a great passer and sometimes impossible to take down in the pocket. Also he was a class act with the fans was never afraid to put his body on the line to move the chains. Impossible to appreciate him if you didn't see him every week. If he had played for a team that threw it all over the place he would have been one of the all time greats. Everyone talks about the one yard short being the defining play of his time with Tennessee, but I always think of this one. One yard short doesn't even have a chance to happen if he doesn't pull that off, and he did it all the time.

Got to see him when he came to play SHSU when I lived in Huntsville. We sold the place out really quick due to this hype over 'Air McNair' this small school dude who was apparently the shit. SHSU pulled the upset (it was crazy packed and people packed outside of stadium just to watch as well) and our 1 armed defensive player even had a pick on him I think.

I'm seeing rumors that it was his wife who shot him then killed herself.
