So I got together with Spizz and The Raging Clam to discuss Steve McNair and the damage done to his legacy caused by the surrounding events of his tragic death. It lead to some interesting discussions on his Hall of Fame chances, his importance in the local community, his influence in the black community, whether his legacy should be tarnished, and how much of an effect this has on his previous reputation of a philanthropist.
Warning: If issues of race, gun control, and the details of Steve McNair’s death bother you, it would be best for you not to listen. We do not wish to offend anybody, but we do ask questions and give opinions on these subjects because we feel they are questions some people want asked and answered and talked about. However, we know this doesn’t apply to everybody, so listen at your own risk.

Interesting ideas, gentlemen. I am afraid that this will sad ending always be part of the McNair story. What I am most angry about is not so much the affair — marriages often flounder and for many many reasons — but that he was willing to spend so much time away from his kids. Vacations, dates, holidays, etc., are spend with this barely 20-year-old woman. Why was he not with his sons, if not with his wife? It’s one thing to fall in love with someone; it’s another thing to neglect your kids. (And why is Spiz so quiet?)
Because Spizz doesn’t like us…
But I have to agree with you and your perspective. We should have definitely talked more about his kids. That is truly sad.
