Comment: I hate that he went out like that. I don't want to talk bad about the deceased but there were rumors about him "running around" a lot but most people chose to ignore it. I would like to see what the investigation turns up.

Comment: I'm completely hurt by this. Such a good dude for the community & from an athletic standpoint. I first heard this after I woke up from a nap & the 1st thing I saw on CNN was this. Been a fan since his years @ Alcorn State(should have won the Heisman).

Comment: I, too, hate to be rude, so I think I will refrain from what I truly want to say about McNair and his 20 year old "friend's" untimely deaths.

Comment: FiveMore, I'm not going to be rude, but speak a couple of facts and offer a speculation. Now I've watched Steve play and he was a very exciting quarterback. Saw the game where they almost won the Superbowl and was rooting for Steve and his teammates to win. However, Steve met this 20-year old, golddigging (Arab?) while she was waitressing at a restaurant; had her co-registered on his vehicle; she was stopped for DUI with bloodshot eyes two nights before the killing. She said she was not drunk, but high, Steve was the passenger. WTF? Consequently, the police DID NOT administer a breatholizer and let her go. WTF? Officer, I'm not drunk, I'm just high. WTF? She and her BOYFRIEND moved from another city in Tennessee and had been together since she was 16! Steve was shot multiple times, including in the head and she was shot in the head only, giving the appearance of a homocide-suicide. The police has interviewed her boyfriend. Isn't it possible her boyfriend shot Steve multiple times and her once in the head to make it appear to be a homocide-suicide? It certainly is possible. Finally, Steve, that was no way to go out, caught cheating on your wife and your two boys with her, not to mention your two other sons. Now, I don't think infidelity is a reason for anyone to die, but you never know what crazy azz mo-fos are out here (whether it was her boyfriend or the golddigger). Hell of a legacy, Steve, hell of a legacy, because you will be remembered as an excellent quarterback, with an asterisk next to your name gleefully explaining by your yt biographers how you left this world.

Comment: well I am going to sy it for everybody. He should have had his azz aat home with his family adn he will still be living. There is no room in a marriage for a third person. He knew better. Sure I hate he lost his life but my God how could you do this to your family. Your wife and kids did not deserve thi and then you were with a 20 year old. You reap what you sow. Sorry you had to go this way but sometimes we pay for our wrong doings with death.

Comment: The sister of Sahel Kazemi says she was a young woman who wanted to have fun and couldn't have hurt anyone - not herself, nor anyone else. Kazemi was actually the aunt of Sepideh Salmani, but they were raised as sisters. Salmani's mother adopted her when she was 9, after Kazemi's mother was killed in their native Iran. Salmani talked to her sister every day, She doesn't believe her sister killed McNair, or herself. "She was one, young girl who had so many dreams that they never came true," Salmani said. "She would never kill anyone, ever. Or anything. Not even a little bug. I want people to know that." An autopsy has been ongoing this morning. A press conference is scheduled this afternoon to discuss the findings. Metro police have said that McNair was found sitting on the sofa, shot several times. Kazemi was lying on the floor with a single gunshot to the head and a pistol near her body. Disbelief was also building near Kazemi's Hermitage home, where police were interviewing neighbors Saturday. Regan Howard said when Kazemi first became her neighbor, she didn't know if it was Kazemi or McNair who moved in since he was there so much. When McNair got her the Escalade, Howard said, she had to help her figure out how to use the remote starter. "She was such a nice girl," Howard said. "I can't believe she would do that." Salmani said she talked to her sister nearly every day, and that she'd been hearing about McNair for several months, since he started coming to Dave & Busters and chatting her up.

Comment: "He started to talk to her a little," Salmani said. "They exchanged phone numbers, and started dating from there." Kazemi told her sister that McNair was in the process of divorcing. "That's why she was like, 'OK, now you're divorcing. We can date,'" Salmani said. "He told her, it was going to be finished, the whole divorce was going to be done, two weeks from yesterday." Although a check of Davidson County's court records shows there is no divorce pending — at least in Nashville — McNair's house is for sale. His wife, Mechelle McNair, hasn't spoken to the media. Police said she is distraught over his death. Salmani said her sister believed that she and McNair would move in together once the divorce was final, and eventually marry. "All she was trying to do was have fun," Salmani said. "Nothing else. I believe there is a third person involved." Kazemi first came to Nashville nearly four years ago with her then-boyfriend, Keith Norfleet. They broke up about five months ago, and she started seeing McNair soon after. She probably didn't know who McNair was, Salmani said, until her colleagues at the restaurant told her. Salmani now fears McNair was using her sister, because she was a young woman with a pretty face. She fears jealous people in his life are the reason her sister is dead, and won't live out her dreams. Her greatest dream, Salmani said, was to be famous. "I think she is now," she said. "She is everywhere."

Comment: Steve, my man. Not the way to go out. I am so sad by this, and hopefully, hopefully, some brothers will learn from this. But it is doubtful. Dayum.

Comment: Sadly, OSB, brothers will not learn from this - this has been going on for a very long time; the dye, unfortunately was cast a very long time - you are right, this is not the way to leave this earth; how does your children move forward from this; they will, but, my goodness, to have something like this laid on you as his children, mother, and family - people, please think in the "long term" when you make decisions - think upstairs, with your brain..................
