finally up on espn.com

Link (new window)

hulk hogan meat shoes: He was always a mediocre QB that for some reason got way too much credit.

His stats aren't mediocre by any means (new window)

Especially during the years he "got credit" as in 00-03.

No Bea Farking Arthur in that list?

RIP

kronicfeld: Masso: David Eddings doesn't count as a celebrity :(

He does to me!

He passed too? Jeez.

/Me, too, Kronicfeld

4NSpy: //tough SOB won games with a bruised sternum.

I remember that, I wondered how the hell do you throw a ball at all with a bruised sternum. That guy must've had some serious tolerance for pain.

So far we have:

TV Salesmen - TRIFECTA COMPLETE
- Ed McMahon
- Billy Mays
- Karl Malden

Inactive Stars of the 70s/80s
- Farrah Fawcett
- Michael Jackson

Athletes
- Steve McNair

shipofthesun: I would like to see the flow chart that involves McNair in a crucial role dying just now in a precise plan. Nothing against McNair, but wasn't there some C-lister just begging to be killed to improve their career that could have been inserted just as well, say...Chevy Chase?

First they go big... Michael Jackson. Take out a worldwide symbol of what it means to be American. He's the Statue of Liberty. Then we go local, niche. Billy Mays hits the insomniacs and old people hard. Farrah Fawcett obliterates the adolescent masturbatory fantasies of the middle-aged. Karl Malden hits film geeks and old people again (our weakest link). Carridine puts some worry in the fetish crowd. And now Steve McNair... right at blue collar Real America and black people.

It's self-evident that this is a coordinated assault on our famous.

We need to bomb someone now.

Phoenix_M: Where's his restaurant?

Something like two miles or more away, quite far from downtown. He was killed under half a mile from the festivities on the Riverfront there today.

He was shot in an apartment, presumably the woman's apartment. How long until the term "estranged husband" comes into play?

How deep to hell do I go for wishing it had been Brett Farve?

kronicfeld: Masso: David Eddings doesn't count as a celebrity :(

He does to me!

God Damn! I didn't even know he was dead! I don't care too much about McNair, but now I find out Eddings died last month... way to ruin my 4th of July.

WHAT THE HOLY fark

Kierkegaard's Pseudonym: We need to bomb someone now.

I say Canada. They're getting uppity lately.

Go YSU!!!!

We kicked his ass

strothgar: MADDEN CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

That is a different black person.

think it's safe to point out the following:

God never won Publishing Clearinghouse and wanted to collect, wanted to learn the Smooth criminal lean, favored the ShamWow, was indeed missing an Angel, and hates the Titans.

Don't forget he killed Carradine to learn Kung Fu.

or God really prefers good ol' fashioned Cleveland steamer over autoerotic asphyxiation.

/oh, hey there Lucifer. no thanks. i'm just here for the entertainment. i'll be sitting right over there...

Now on ESPN News ... no information other than what is in the original article though.

ESPNews finally just said something about it
"at his home"

Mortensen report forthcoming

Link just showed up on CNN to the same article.

At least this will have no effect on my fantasy team.

TeddyRooseveltsMustache: Sports figure death trifecta soon to be in play?

Alexis Arguello found dead on Thursday. So, yeah.

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4299144

Yes, I know that is Vince Young....

^ i think that is vince young on the madden game. McNair retired in 2007 and had been playing for the ravens for a few years.

Umm... has anyone checked on Abe Vigoda today?

ESPN just confirmed it

kronicfeld: strothgar: MADDEN CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

That is a different black person.

A genuinely mediocre and overrated QB, in fact.

Street View of murder location (new window)

That doesn't look like a great area to me. Any Farkers in TN have any idea what kind of neighborhood that is like?

Former NFL quarterback Steve McNair has been found dead in Nashville, Tennesee, his brother tells CNN.

kronicfeld: strothgar: MADDEN CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

That is a different black person.

we've already been over this, that's Steve Young, right Fat and Nasty 86

tdpatriots12: A genuinely mediocre and overrated QB, in fact.

Calling Vince Young mediocre is an insult to the truly mediocre.

strothgar:
MADDEN CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

That's Vince Young. McNair retired before the 07/08 season, and he wasn't playing for the Titans then.

sarasotarockstar: Walter Cronkite is next...he's pretty much on death watch at the moment.

Other possibilities coming soon are Peter Falk and of course Swayze.

I had Michael J. Fox in my death pool.

strothgar: After the NFL he had just opened a restaurant

Yes, I know. A picture of him playing baseball. Awesome, isn't it.

But most importantly...


MADDEN CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

FAIL

DallasDarling: sarasotarockstar: Walter Cronkite is next...he's pretty much on death watch at the moment.

I had Michael J. Fox in my death pool.

He's a good pick to shake things up.

kronicfeld: Calling Vince Young mediocre is an insult to the truly mediocre.

Indeed. I remember making numerous posts (here and elsewhere) to that effect on the day he was drafted.

But I was apparently wrong about Mario Williams vs. Reggie Bush, so...

Michael J. Fox will live to 112. You mark my words.

I don't have a dead pool, I think a Closet Pool is more fun.

My bets are on David Lee Roth and Queen Latifah to come out next.
