McNairNashville police announced that former NFL star Steve McNair was shot dead in his sleep last week by his 20-year-old girlfriend, who was distraught about mounting financial problems and her belief that McNair was seeing someone else. Sahel Kazemi “was spinning out of control” when she shot McNair four times as he dozed on a sofa early Saturday, then turned the gun on herself, Police Chief Ronal Serpas said.

As more of this story is unbundled and we see and hear more of what was McNair’s life was off the field, what kind of hero does this make him. Check Jason Whitlock’s story “Don’t be so quick to make McNair a hero.”
