Wow, this is horrible! Rumors are double murder or murder/suicide with his wife the one pulling the trigger. Air McNair was one of my fave QB's when he was around. :(

CNN is reporting that the other woman that was found dead at the scene along with McNair was his girlfriend.

Former NFL quarterback Steve McNair was shot multiple times, including once to the head, according to police. Authorities say McNair and a woman identified as Sahel Kazemi were found dead at a Nashville, Tennessee, condominium, on Saturday.

I'm stunned.

Must have scattered body parts everywhere. I heard earlier reports that he and a lady were cut to pieces, tragic none the less.

Reports are making it sound like a murder-suicide. CNN says they are not actively looking for suspects, which tells me that they think either McNair or the girlfriend pulled the trigger.

Murder-suicide effectively rules out being knifed. This has been a bad year for deaths in the entertainment and sports fields.

Some people want to blame it on the bad economy but I think it’s much deeper than that. I would hope so in this case. Being a professional I would hope that he had enough money as to not be impacted too harshly by the economy.

Police officially ruled it a homicide on the McNair side of the shooting today. I live in the Nashville area...this is all over the news.

There are extenuating circumstances to the higher murder and suicide death rate then the poor economy.

It could be the little gray monkeys swimming around in their heads.

No man, I have no clue. You’re making me think about something I really don’t care about in the big scheme of things.

I was trying not to be rude and not answer your questions directed to me, even if it’s just an “online question”.

No big deal, we just think on different levels. You seem to be a “the sky is blue” person when I’m more of an abstract person. It’s what color I say it is. It’s no big deal, really. I could type out a thousand words and probably never get you to understand me.

Well, apparently it's "America's gun culture" that is to blame, not a crazy girlfriend.

i figured you were trying not to be rude. as far as being black or white, i guess when the situation calls for that directness i am, otherwise, i see differently.
