Tennessee Titans Morning Links: The Mourning for Steve McNair Continues Edition (Updated Regularly)

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Jeff Fisher will address this tragedy at a press conference today at 2:30.  Coach Fisher has been in the Middle East meeting with U.S. troops as part of a USO tour.  If we can find coverage online we'll let you know.  You might check here.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 KSK torches the childish speculation running rampant in some surlier quarters of the internets.  I could see these being copy and pasted from Florio and PFT comments and not be surprised one bit.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Paul Kuharsky knocks it out of the park, per usual.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 T-Rac's Posse says it all.  It'll be a while before I can read this without getting choked-up. 

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Tune into 103.3 WKDF (which broadcasts Titans games during the season) tonight at 6:00 p.m. central for a special tribute show of clips and memories covering Steve's career.  The show will be hosted by Mike Keith and Titans Radio, and may possibly he heard here, but don't hold me to that.  The Titans Radio affiliate in Chattanooga, 102.3 WGOW, will also be running a tribute to McNair tomorrow morning (h/t to gramsey712).

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Continuing the classy style that defines SB Nation, the kind comments continue to come in from around the league.  Check out what Jets fansRavens fansDolphins fansChiefs fansTexans fansBengals fansEagles fans Ravens fans and Colts fans are saying.  Even non-NFL centric blogs like Sea of Blue (U of Kentucky Sports) are chiming in. I'll update this list as I find new tributes on the network.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Lucille McNair is grieving over the loss of her son, but she refuses to be angry.  Like many of us who only knew him as a football player, she's refusing to let his death outshine his life.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Details of limited veracity continue to emerge surrounding the relationship between McNair and Kazemi.  Believe what you want.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 USA Today has good info on the investigation and the key questions police are asking today.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Leave it to Mike Lupica to reduce Steve McNair to a statistic because it makes a good column.  How this turns into a gun control argument I have no idea, and I don't care where you come down on it politically.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 One of the best pieces I've read on Steve McNair's life comes from enemy soil: Ken Murray at the Baltimore Sun.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Second best may well be this piece by ESPN and NYT contributor KC Joyner.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 The venerable Pro Football Weekly dusted off this great piece they published when McNair retired last year.

Ive been really impressed by the out pour of sympathy from other teams' blogs around here

The kinds words and to know that he didn’t just touch the hearts of Tennessee fans but all football fans and non-football fans alike. This really hit me like a sack of bricks because it couldn’t of happened to a better man and a better family. The character and heart of Steve McNair was astounding.

agreed

and that goodwill will be remembered and repaid for sure. I’m very impressed by how classy everyone in the SB Nation blogs have been. It’s one of the reason’s I’m so happy to be involved with this community, and it’s why I was reading and commenting every day well before I came on board.
