The Death of yet another Legend: Football great Steve McNair


And the notable deaths of 2009 continues... The death of former NFL star Steve McNair, is a profound loss to the NFL community. A four-time Pro Bowl selection, McNair who was married with four children, was found Saturday with multiple gunshot wounds on a sofa,in a Nashville condominium community. Cops hint that he was murdered my his girlfriend, who then took her own life.

Reportedly, McNair, had been dating 20 year old Sahel Kazemi for only a few months, after the two hit it off at a Dave & Buster's restaurant, where she worked as a waitress. Neighbors told of often seeing McNair visiting her. And according to ex-boyfriend Keith Norfleet, McNair has since bought her a 2007 black Cadillac Escalade. About the relationship, Norfleet has told The TENNESSEAN, "He was making her believe they were going to be together, and everything would be perfect.”

Kazemi was found dead a few feet away from McNair, with single shot wound to the head. A pistol was found her body.

Two young lives cut short, because of cheating and infidelity, on both their parts. How senseless. I don't know how credible the ex-boyfriend is either, I'd take whatever he says with a grain of salt.However, he does add another perspective to the situation. My heart goes out to McNair's wife and children as they are truly are the innocent victims, in this tangled web of lies and deceit.
