643...Why Time Begins On Opening Day

Thomas Boswell, the Washington Post writer, said that about baseball.

Right sentiment, wrong sport.

Truly time begins on opening day for the NFL.

Time begins tonight.

It is on.

T. O., the biggest celebrity in the NFL and the Buffalo-Toronto Bills will be playing the Tennessee Titans, Steve McNair's old team, in the Hall of Fame game.

It is on.

441...Air McNair, Grounded

Permanently.

I first saw this on ESPN.com but it is everywhere as I write this.

Steve McNair, the thirteen year NFL veteran, the second Black man to start at quarterback in a Superbowl, was murdered late last night/early this morning in Nashville, Tennessee. He was found with a single gunshot wound to the head at the apartment of his girlfriend in downtown Nashville. She also perished.

Mr. McNair, who played the bulk of his career in Nashville with the Tennessee Titans, was only 36 years old when he passed.
