Wow.

My guess—home invasion/robbery.

my guess is

psycho gf murder/suicide.

There are a lot of conflicting reports on what happened

no real conformation of who the second victim is.

My line of reasoning is that if it was his wife, both sets of family members would have notified with one call. Makes me wonder who the unidentified woman was.

I'm following the local guys, seems they just changed the story to "unknown female"

Deadspin said wife first:
UPDATE: Darren Rovell is reporting on his twitter account that McNair was shot and killed by his wife in an apparent murder-suicide.

UPDATE 2: Now Rovell’s source is pulling back on that report. No more until we actually learn something.

Wife is in Mississippi

according to his agent and Mortensen

Really weird situation. I was fairly sure he had a house outside of Memphis, not a town home in Nashville.

Tennessee Titans owner Bud Adams confirmed the quarterback’s death in a brief statement released Saturday.

Nashville fire officials and Metro Police confirmed to affiliate station WSMV that McNair was dead at an apartment in downtown Nashville.

I get the impression

that he had a house with his family, and he also had this condo that he shared with a 20 year old gf.

There's more to the picture than meets the eye.

That's sad.

I hope his family will be okay. What a terrible, tragic and violent way to go.

Thoughts to his family.

She say she are the manager.

eesh

it seems like only a few years ago he was co-MVP, then a back-up, then out of football, and now this. he was one of my favorite players of the late 90s-early 00s. what a sad way to go.

in all the clips they are showing

the aparment he was in appears to be in a not very nice area of town. maybe drugs were involved. very sad, always was a fan of steve mcnair.

RIP

Steve McNair

From what I gathered he was in a

townhome that he shared with a sports memorabilia buddy of his.

Seems to me this was a place he took “the Strange” to.

Goes to show

when looking for a girlfriend to put up in a love nest, check to make sure that the bitch isn’t packing heat.
