Breaking News: Former NFL QB Steve McNair Dead In Apparent Murder-Suicide

stevemcnair.jpg

There are a lot of crazy things going around surrounding the death of Steve McNair, but there is one thing we all need to remember.

Two people lost their lives today in what appears to be an avoidable situation.

They ask Biggie once how he felt about Tupac dying and he said something very prophetic:

"I wouldn't wish death on nobody there isn't any coming back from that."

So just remember while you are watching ESPN, CNN and etc that you don't forget regardless of what was going on in McNair's personal life there is no justification for murder. Just please keep that in mind.

Here are updated details from CNN.com:

Former NFL quarterback Steve McNair was killed in a shooting in Nashville, Tennessee, authorities said Saturday.

Police said they found McNair and a woman shot to death in a Nashville residence after receiving a phone call about an injured person.

The woman has been tentatively identified, but her name is not being released, authorities said.

A law enforcement source close to the investigation said the woman is McNair's girlfriend and that the residence is her condominium.

Witnesses said McNair was a frequent visitor there.

Authorities were questioning people who were near the home, but they said no one was in custody. Video Watch report on McNair's death »

They could not provide details about the circumstances of the shooting.

McNair's brother, Fred, also confirmed the death but had no immediate details.

Wow... Shocking news...

The link you have is non-functional.

There is nothing on the WKRN site about this.

Are you sure this happened?

OK, now the story is starting to appear.

Damn, this is a shock. My prayers go his family and friends.

It is very true that Steve died(so very sad) but it's a double homicide not murder suicide. Sorry but the guy reporting this needs to get his facts straight.

Judge Mental the first reporting was murder/suicide..that is why the words "apparent" were use until we got more confirmation

This man was a fucking Competitor! He threw himself out there and he never complained about being hurt. The man also was never really healthy, and I mean he played with countless injuries but was able to still make excellent plays! Top Ten Quarterback of the damn Decade A superstar to the end!

This is so sad...we're watching it on Channel 4 Nashville.

I just heard the news...so sad and heartbreaking. I wonder who was the lady that was also found dead?...I pray that it was not his wife.

I am deeply saddened by this tragic event. I've never met Steve personally but my husband got the opportunity to meet him and thought that Steve was a good, genuine guy...my heart goes out to his wife and children...Has it been confirmed yet as far as who the lady was that was also found dead? Sure hope it wasn't his wife.

People 95% of the time do not get shot for no reason, okay sometimes there are innocent victims in a robbery, etc ... You know he pissed someone!!!

Anthony, unfortunately I have to agree. I thought he was a stand up player in league and kept his nose clean, but I agree that he must have gotten into something or involved in something he shouldn't have.

But, no matter, It's sad still the same.

One of the toughest QBs ever

I was a murder/suicide. This is a fact!

I was a murder/suicide. This is a fact!

He was the man. I am a native of Mississippi and I looked up to as a football player. We are the same age but my season of play was cut short with knee injuries. My condolences is with his family.

I likened his playing ethic to Brett Favre. He always played 100% and he was always trying to find ways to win. I loved the fact that he was from tiny little Alcorn State and he made a name for himself in college and later on in the NFL. RIP

I made a tribute video. This is so sad. He was one of the toughest guys to ever grace the field of the NFL. Thanks for 13 awesome seasons!

Can't stand after reading about it.... wow... RIP steve.

Rob - you got faithful readers for years on this site, tell me that you had good reason to post this heading of murder suicide. It would do much damage to your cred if you used a heading like this and it turns out to be something else like a robbery. I know how it may look but this is one of the greatest black QBs of all time - unless you have inside sources, couldn't you have waited a bit before you dropped a heading like this?

Just checked steve's profile in wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_McNair. under his Carrer Information windows, there is something written, "his di*k tastes like pinkberry–2007 his di*k tastes like pinkberry"

I mean damn c'mon, man is dead... was shot to death... he is one of the best players in past 15 years, give some respect, I dont know it is a typo but still...

I heard it was his wife, that shot both of them. From inside sources.

OK now that I've seen the Nashville news, it's pretty clear what happened. To everyone and their "inside sources", please have some class. I met Steve back in 07... very nice guy, always had time for people and deserves better than wild speculation. Props to BSO for being on top of this so timely.

It's apparent that there was no forced entry to the apt, the gun was not immediately seen by the police when they arrived - its been reported that the gun was near or under the woman's body. I believe it was a murder/suicide. Apparently he was with this woman and at some point she must have realized he was not leaving his wife. It's so sad that people can just take another person's life for their own selfish reasons. No one deserves to die in such a tragic way.

My heart goes out to his family.
