Here is a video report on the funeral service held yesterday on the campus of Southern Mississippi University for former NFL Quarterback Steve McNair. McNair was shot to death by a woman who then took her own life in a murder-suicide one week ago. . . . . (Watch Video)

What a cringe-inducing legacy to leave your wife and children...

Honest to God, please don’t get me started on this. I’ll end up banned for life. No shit.

You can Freepmail me if you need to vent, LOL! It really is disgusting behavior. If my husband did this to me, he’d be lucky to get buried in the yard next to his old hound dog, let alone have a public funeral. ;)

Seriously...I would have thought that given the, uh, circumstances of his death the family would have had a very private and quiet memorial and burial.

And if God forbid I had been his wife I would have spent about a buck and a quarter on his casket and used the rest of his money desperately trying to make a new and better life for my kids and myself.

Steve McNair would be alive today but for his own terrible choices stemming from a flawed personal character.

There is no shame in life anymore, unless you’re a republican, then everything you do is considered shameful.

What a legacy. Despite all the accomplishments on the gridiron and whatever he did of a philanthropic nature, whenever anyone hears the name of Steve McNair, their first memory will be that he was the NFL quarterback who got wasted by his 20 year old girlfriend as he was sleeping on the couch in her apartment.
