because a lot of them are black.

Because you can take the n---a out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of the n---a. ie Michael Vick

Wow - this is shocking. No sarcasm intended.

Thanks for all the condolences, everyone. It means a lot. I know that the Fark community (myself included) can be pretty snarky and tasteless at times, but it's nice to see the kindness show through sometimes. I love this place.

Take care!

I saw twitter reference to news flash that McNair and his "girlfriend" were both killed by girlfriend's husband.

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

considering queen latifah married a woman 6 mos to a year ago, you're really going out on a limb there, huh?

Has anyone asked where Ray Lewis is yet?

strothgar: Bendal: The area around 2nd and Lea in Nashville is not where you'd expect a multi-millionaire NFL QB to be hanging out; it's definitely not well developed and there are plenty of low-income government housing nearby. Not saying he didn't have his reason for being there, only that it's not where you'd expect to see someone like him.

No, that one block is all that's nice looking; the rest of the area is low rent apartments south, old warehouses and run down industrial buildings. The one group of townhouses are a beautification project and stick out like a sore thumb from the surrounding area.

watching the video on the linkpage It looks like the "nice" condos are where the shooting took place. Rest of the neighborhood is probably pissed at all the cops showing up.

He was on the wrong side of Broadway. Broadway and 2nd North is the tourist/pedestrian area, with clubs/bars and upscale restaurants and stuff. From Broadway to 2nd South is more rundown or "in development", save for Demonbreun St. He wasn't far from the good side of town at all, but he still wasn't in it.

What surprises me the most is that this didn't happen in East Nashville.

What? I lived down there for years. It's not that bad at all. Have you just not been to many "bad parts of town" in other places? There are way, way worse places in Nashville than 2nd/Lea.

Are you sure your wife isn't thinking of down around Cannon? That's where, IIRC, the "beautification project" in the middle of a bunch of shiat was.

I think you have to make a distinction in Nashville as you do in most cities. Unlike inner city Chicago, even the "low digit South" streets are safe in the morning and during the day. The only time they get really rough (and even then you pretty much have to overstep your bounds) is late at night. I admit some of the area becomes sketchy around 2 - 3 in the morning, but it still isn't "get double murdered" sketchy. But, then again, maybe he got murdered at 2-3 in the morning. :/

That's for staring down Heap in the endzone VS. Indy.

Jeeze.

Lost Thought 00: Hall Of Fame?

I can see it. He is only the third player to get over 3500 rushing yards and over 35000 passing yards. The two others are Steve Young and Randell Cunningham.

Like some others have said, she points out once you get south of Broadway the whole character of the area changes. If you look at the area through Google or Streetview it looks pretty run down except for that one block of townhouses, and just south of there is a huge area of tenement houses that look a lot like subsidized housing.

Wait, wait wait... I'm confused... I thought McNair was the stuff Scottish chicks used to remove hair from unwanted areas...

Understood. I haven't been down there in a few years, so it's quite possible it's gone downhill since the early 2000s.

BTW, the worst place in Nashville is Buffalo Billiards. Their prices are criminal. :D

Obnox: oshkosh: I saw twitter reference to news flash that McNair and his "girlfriend" were both killed by girlfriend's husband.

The rumor going around Nashville is that she was a 20-year-old Asian woman.

Steve was a pretty cool guy, even if he was a playa. I grew up in Mississippi, not far from where he did. Back when he was in college, my mom met him in McDonald's one night, and got his autograph.

Another great MS-born NFL star is gone. :( I haven't felt this bad since Walter Payton passed away.

New info; looks like McNair stayed there when he was in town.

WTF is that article talking about? That apartment is nowhere near McNair's restaurant, unless you count 20 minutes of Nashville traffic as "close."
