Comments
I remember when you were a junior in college and how the accolades were slowly making it to the national sports scene.
I remember when as a senior, you were seriously considered a Heisman candidate.
I remember when you were drafted by the Oilers and they brought you along slowly.
I remember when you constantly gave the Ravens fits until the 2000 season when we they finally won it all.
I remember when you beat the Ravens in the playoffs in January 2004.
I when you got traded to the Ravens and gave us a season to remember in 2006.
I even travelled to Nashville during that season to see you play the "revenge" game.
I was always a big fan of yours and nothing can ever take the good memories you gave this fan.
Rest In Peace Steve McNair!!!!
