that his death has upset me like this. He gave of himself to charities, with no expectation of adoration or acknowledgement from the general public. He did it
because he wanted to do it. He was a class act.

This really sucks.
http://www.wkrn.com/Global/story.asp?S=10643916 Former Titan Steve McNair deadPosted: Jul 04, 2009 2:50 PM CDT Updated: Jul 04, 2009 3:43 PM CDT NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Former Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair is dead. The former Titans star was found shot to death at an apartment complex on Second Avenue South at Lea Avenue, in downtown Nashville. A second person was also found dead. That person's identity was not immediately known. Investigators are on the scene Saturday afternoon. No further details were released. McNair played 13 seasons in the NFL before retiring in April 2008. He played college football at Alcorn State and was drafted by the Houston Oilers, third overall, in the 1995 NFL Draft. McNair played 11 seasons with the Titans franchise, leading the team to the Super Bowl in 1999. He played his final two seasons with the Baltimore Ravens. McNair was selected to the Pro Bowl three times and was the co-MVP of the league in 2003, sharing the award with Peyton Manning. He was 36 years old.

It's being reported as a double homicide now. | #12 | ||

Regardless of what happened, It's a damn shame and a tradegy. If it is a double homicide, I hope that bastard fries in Hell forever (and I'm sure he
will). McNair was truly one of the good guys in the world.

I still imagine a scenario where the 13-0 Rebels are a mere second or two away from kickoff against USC in the Rose Bowl
for all the marbles and then good lord baby Jesus shows up in the clouds to call me and all the other good Rebels home... what do we do? Accept our eternal
glory or stick around to see if our boys can seal the ultimate deal?

This has been a shitty couple of weeks. Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Billy Mays and now Steve McNair.
It doesn't even feel right mentioning death and Steve McNair in the same sentence. This one hurts the most because it hits so close to home for most of us...

The man was a certified badass, played hurt constantly and once Eddie George started to suck he never really had that good of an offense to help him. Oh, and
he was a finalist for the heisman at a 1AA school. Doubt anyone pulls that off ever again.

Is this the same Greg Ainsworth who played for Bob Tyler at MHS in the 1960's? | #18 | ||

I remember watching you as a little kid...you, Tommy Monsour, Bob White, George Ranager, Sam McCorkle, etc. As a matter of fact, I remember hearing George
Shannon say "Greg Ainsworth" tons of times. Because of you guys, one of my goals in life was to play for a State Championship Meridian High football
team.
I got to, playing for two Championship teams in 1978-9 (Mac Barnes first two teams).

...1/2 your age, plus 7. Anything younger than that, while legal, is wrong.
