Steve Mcnair killed


Steve Mcnair was found dead yesterday in Nashville Tennessee. Mcnair played 11 seasons with the Titans along with Eddie George helping revive the Houston Oiler franchise that moves in the 90's. He was Drafted out of Alcorn State in 1995 to become the franchises premier face. He took the Titans to the Superbowl in 1999 only to lose to the Rams by 1 yard. In 2003 he shared a Co-MVP with Peyton Manning. He ended his career with the Baltimore Ravens after the 2007 injury plagued season he had.Steve was only 1 of 3 players to ever throw for 30,000 yards while rushing for over 3,500 yards.

I know this is nothing about about Steelers or Pittsburgh but i figured id share my respects to a man who brought his all every practice and every game and never once gave up. He terrorized the Steelers for every single 1 of his playing years. I have never seen a QB take so many hits and get up and do it again the next play like Mcnair did. IMO Mcnair should be in the Hall OF Fame. He may not have been the greatest player ever but he was one of the greatest leaders to ever walk on the field. Very few people in the NFL become as adored and respected league wide as Steve Mcnair had become. I wish well to his family and friends and my heart goes out to Titan fans. God Bless
