Four Fatal Bullets

I don't mean to sound hypocritical here but let's be realistic. The main story in this whole thing is the circumstances surrounding Steve McNair's death. Some fans want you to overlook that part as if that's going to ultimately make any difference in how he is remembered. Twenty years from now he'll be that quarterback who got shot by his mistress. You can't preach a person into heaven after they're already dead. I don't care how much he gave to charity and how many football camps he sponsored. That doesn't erase the foul way that he spent his last minutes on earth. He supposedly was shot by his girlfriend in his sleep. We know for sure he was killed in an apartment he rented in the company of a woman other than his wife.

Somebody said this should do wonders for fidelity among sports fans across the country. Based on what I heard at the barbershop yesterday. I don't think some of them are convinced yet. Not only do you have to worry about your spouse catching you, but retaliation from the outside as well. McNair was a star quarterback in Mount Olive breaking records in high school when Sahel Kazemi was born.
He has been married to his wife Michelle for twelve years. She gave him four fine children. Sahel gave him four fatal bullets.

  1. What will the investigation reveal? Could my suspicions have been right?

    CBS Report: Police Account of Steve McNair Death Doesn't Add Up

    The law enforcement investigation of the deaths of Steve McNair and his girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi, concluded that Kazemi shot and killed McNair before committing suicide. But a new investigation from CBS News raises serious questions about whether the police properly investigated the incident, and whether they may have reached the wrong conclusion.

    On Monday's Early Show, correspondent Armen Keteyian reported that his own three-month investigation (video after the jump) found errors made by the police, including a major one about when Kazemi supposedly bought the murder weapon. Police claimed that they had pinpointed the time when Kazemi bought the murder weapon as during a two-hour period when she was absent from work. But Keteyian reported that the police were wrong about the date on which Kazemi was gone from work for two hours, and that there are major questions about whether she purchased the gun at all.



    And while police say Kazemi was distraught about being broke, CBS obtained her bank statement and other information about her finances and found that she had more money on hand than she owed in bills. Police also said Kazemi was angry about having been arrested for DUI, but CBS uncovered video footage showing Kazemi at the police station after her arrest, and she doesn't look distraught.

    On Tuesday, CBS is promising to reveal a "big" mistake that the police department made in the investigation. Keteyian's reporting has already revealed enough to make me think the police have a lot of explaining to do.
