Hey, I posted a news source.

And I am sure right about famous people kicking off.

I saw the 1999 Rams/Titan’s game in person. That last yard short was one of the most significant SB plays ever.

OOps. wrong thread — I posted the murder/suicide link on another thread.

But I still think this is ‘hood-related.

I am stunned......

There has never tougher QB to ever don a helmet and shoulder pads in the history of the NFL.

I guess you can’t take the boy out of the ‘hood.

From all I've heard, he's from the country, not the hood.

Probably right — post in haste, repent at leisure.

But it is getting strange — early reports of murder/suicide...

No arguement here. As a Steeler fan, I remember we always had trouble with this guy. I’d always get irked when we’d blitz d-backs. Even when standing in the pocket, he’d shrug them off like they were little kids. It took at least a linebacker to bring that guy down. McNair was one helluva QB.

“That last yard short was one of the most significant SB plays ever.”

####

Lest we forget, IF Dyson had scored, with the subsequent PAT the Titans would have only TIED the St. Louis Rams, NOT won the Superbowl on the last play of the game

How do they know it was a suicide and not an honor killing?

Still under investigation. Sounds like a murder-suicide from the info so far.

Honor killings involve the man killing the woman. Plus, it doesn’t sound like either of them are even Muslims.

If it was an honor killing the woman’s family or even an ex could have killed them both.
