“Holly Robinson Peete, The wife of NFL great Rodney Peete had this to say via twitter”:
@hollyrpeete: Will the Steve McNair tragedy scare married men straight like the ‘87 film “Fatal Attraction” did for a while??
@hollyrpeete: the photos of mcnair and girl on vacay make me wonder was he throwing this in wife’s face?? i hope not
@hollyrpeete: I told hubby if I get a call some 20 year old waitress he was doing offed him- me and kids boycotting the funeral- not EVEN joking
What do you think about her comments? Do you agree?
With all of those emotions, it seems to me that Holly has something to hide. Think about it: when the prophet gave David the parable about the wealthy man taking the poor man’s only ewe lamb & how angry David was after hearing the story, yet later, Nathan revealed to David that it was him that did that when he took Urriah’s wife, while sending Urriah to the hottest spot in the battle to be killed. Either way, what Steve did was selfish & ultimately, it cost him his life. Whether it is fact or fiction, all of the finger pointing about whom should take the brunt of the fault is infected and dead. There are plenty of people from BOTH genders that trangress this act; it’s only the women who get to play the “Lifetime victim (like the TV network)” when it happens to them. With shows on like Desperate Housewives, Wife Swap, etc. how easy is it to get caught up in drama & think that nothing is wrong? At the end of the day, the way that the word “judge” is being used here, we’re not suppose to judge in the aspect of condemning a person to hell, not their actions. Jesus said to judge not according to appearance, but to righteous judgement, so the judging is by biblical standards, but it’s still not up to us to condemn that person to hell because of it, because this is a heart issue, and the last time I checked, only God knows the heart. That is why David is called a man after God’s own heart, though he committed adultery with Bathsheba.
I agree with Holly as well, to an extent. Let the children see their father. These athletes do not understand sanctity of marriage. If he does not respect their marriage, why should she? Why should she face the embarrassment and shame. I don’t agree with how he got caught, but he got caught. It seems like most of society is excusing him. It’s not a matter of being perfect, be faithful to your spouse. They chose their spouse “from death do they part,” @ Oracle, so yes, the baller is supposed to remain with whom he is married to. Separated does NOT mean divorce, so they were still married. Society needs to seek the Lord and find their morality. The are always so opposed to something until it happens to them.
Holly, I am with you. If his mother wanted a funeral let her burry him! Black men are just too disrespect and put their black women through too many unnessary changes. Mechele was too intelligent and classy for Steve. Steve was just like a pig not happy until he is rolling around in the mud and trash.
You can’t undo the hurt, shame, and the pain, but I think it is an imperative that the kids are allowed to see their father laid to rest. If the end result of a desolved relationship didn’t end in death, but that one party left. Would you deny the kids the right to see their father then. I think Holy’s response was somewhat reactionary, and given time, she would have a change of heart. I know what she means, and I do understand, but allow the kids to see the man…
All I can say is that God does not like ugly and what is in the wash will come out in the rinse. No one is above it, athletes, stars, nor politicians. Mechelle can hold her head up high and move on and have the option of being with someone who loves and cherishes who she is as a beautiful woman and a mother.
surveying the opinions, wow! really a diverse mix. i moved from miami to southern georgia-i’d never lived around blak hillbillies of which steve mcnair is. they will sleep with anything and anybody, even their own relatives. infidelity is extremely common and i’m sure she knew, but like the black women here in georgia, they accept it as a way of life. he was a typical southern country boy, they will virtually do anything for a white woman. he took his boys fishing, while taking his mistress half way around the world, even to his hometown in mississippi, nothing like showing off a white woman to your homeboys and having her meet your mother. so i knew michelle was aware and equally embarrassed. unfortunately he wasn’t that astute at business and didn’t leave a will, most of his estate will be eaten up in taxes & legel fees.
in the end, see the video “ashanti” i wish i did’nt love you so/ life imitating art.
The circumstances for which Steve McNair lost his life is irrelevant. Just think, Mechelle never got the chance to confrot Steve about his affair nor the other woman. Now she has to raise his kids and wonder in the back of her mind, did he really love me and if he did why did he do this to me or to us (including children). Lets stop speculating and lift our sister Mechelle McNair and family up in prayer.
I heard that she was actually not going to the funeral. I am pretty sure her folks talked to her and she changed her mind. Think about it, 12 years of marriage and four children (two are not hers) I am pretty sure this is not his first affair. She has probably suspected him cheating at some point. It’s easy for a man of his status to do cheat because he has the money to do it. Like the saying goes,”Everything that glitters aint gold.” When you want to live that type of lifestyle, cheating can be expected unless the man/woman have a firm foundation.
boycott the funeral? not give the kids the chance to pay their final respect?? a bit extreme Holly. Watch out Rodney…hahaha

Some of the females on here saying they would boycott the funeral are fake. I undertsnad this man has cheated, but no one is perfect. This was her husband of 13 years and the father of 4 young men who will never see their father agian. Ladies stop being crass. You are wearing your emotions on your sleeve.
Holly R Peete is fake as well. I am not condoning his act, but to boycaoot the husband’s funeral shows a lack of class.
Calling women females tells me that you are a GHETTO MAN. That shows you have a lack of class.
Men that love the Lord are faithfull to their wives.
With 4 boys why did’nt the family attend Church every Sunday.
However not letting the children say good-bye to their Father would have been so wrong.
Does anyone know how old these boy are
Men that love the Lord are faithfull to their wives.

Girl…! I hear ya!
People need Jesus nowadays! All this temptation in the world, and both men and women don’t know what to do with it if they don’t have a STRONG foundation and focus in their lives.
Pray for both families !
Wow!!! I Read the blog. This is the way I view this situation. No one was there, no one knows what has transpired in this man’s life or that of his wife. Opinions are like A**holes, everyone has one and they ALL stink. Remember when we were all so ready to judge Michael Jackson prior to his untimely demise, and then right after news broke of his death, the public became more aware of who this man really was, by way of his family and children. He stopped being a “Pervert” or a “Child Molester” All the sudden we all loved and missed and cried for Michael, the King of Pop. Is it going to take his wife and children speaking out to media and cameras before we realize this man was just that and only that A MAN. Fallable and in need of Jesus in everyway. Let’s not be so hasty in judgement, this man reagrdless of the action was a Father, A Husband, A Son, A Brother, A Friend to someone who is now hurting!!!! No one owes anyone else anything for a qwik romp in the sack, maybe he and the Mrs. were experiencing marital strain, but I am quite sure that after 14 years she knew her husband , she knew HIM, and she knew this was not the first time, this is however the last. She is in pain, not only for the loss, but for the loss to her children. I blame the child Sahel for loosing herself in a married man and then selfishly, like a spoiled child passing judgement and sentence on Steve as though it was her right to do so. This whole situation is tragic. Let’s all just pray for his and her families, they are also the victims here.
Right is right and wrong is wrong. We live in a world today where everything wrong is right and right is wrong.
Steve did not deserve to die. Im not condoning his affair,
but we have no right to judge him or anybody. Jesus is the only judger. My heart goes out to his wife, kids, and
mother. I hate that his boys are going to grow up without
a father in there life. We are all human. Professional athletes are not perfect. My prayers are with the family. kj
Man its some great opinions, and I respect everyone. But the truth is a man can not cheat if a woman dont let him. So all these women who are messing with someone else husband, deserve everything they get.
love hides all faults. who cares that he cheated he’s not the first and won’t be the last at the end of the day. in this day and time more and more people are in adultress relationships then ever before. just as many men as women almost not, but men still run the game in this era. bury his tail and cash the check with a smile on my face and live happily ever after as i would do. his death to her was a great pay off now she does have to go thru a nasty ass divorce and fight like hell for was is truly hers and well deserved. i would not be mad at all his,this is a life story common to many wealthy and unwealthy women we just suck it up and keep going like nothing ever happen. and her loss my gain. peace of mind,has got a very big price tag, now i know where he is it every nite i go to bed with my millions. what goes around, always come back to bite u on your ass sooner or later. the devil always has a great prize tag when you deal with him and u must pay dearly when u play with him. sorry satan won this one.
You females are so wack. All men are as faithful as their options — especially men of power, money, or prestige.
Actually, ‘male copulation with as many females partners as possible’ is hardwired into the male species (lions, dogs, apes, horses, bulls, humans, etc). Its a biological fact.
I feel sorry for all three (3) parties: beautiful Family, Steve, and the beautiful ‘Girlfriend’.
I presume the police will find out that both Steve and the Girlfriend were murdered.
‘Former groupies/star-chasers’ (as most of you are) think that just because you ‘get married to the baller’ that he is now ALL YOURS and that the game is over. So stupid, so silly! You are simply a groupie/star chaser who got lucky enough to lead the starting line-up. But, the game is not over.
Krystle, the word is called OPIONION, we gave ours and you are sure giving your half, we don’t expect for everyone to agree with what is said but it is still an opionion and everyone has one, no one said he derserved to die but he did and that is what it is, he was still a married man separated or not, so we are not judging the man just the act, and there is nothing wrong with that, and there you go putting stuff out there, now, now. No beef with you just an opionion.

1st of all do any1 really know what the status was with his wife. Just because she said she don’t know don’t mean anything. Would u admit 2 the world your husband & u were seperated if he comes up murder. These stars don’t tell the whole story they could’ve been still married but seperated. Every1 wants 2 jump 2 conclusions. Regardless of how shit was happening he didn’t deserve that shit. If u can say a cheater deserve death as a punishment u r a damn fool. Remember the man 4 his legacy on the field not his damn personal life. He was a hell of a player and community man who gave back. Remember him 4 that stars are human 2. Also I every1 wants 2 comment on what they would do and how they would feel u can’t because u r not in that woman shoes. He still was her husband and father of her kids. People don’t know whether she ever had an affair. Just stop passing judgment because none of y’all r GOD!!!!
I agree…cremate him and put the ashes in the trash! If I was his wife I would not even pick his body up from the morgue let the county dispose of him! We all know men cheat…if you want out have the decency to let me kno up front.
she took the words right out my mouth, i would dare someone to call me bout some damn funeral. I would go view the body to curse his ass for what he did to me and the kids over a piece of ass, then go cash the life insurance policy and start my life over wit the money minus the cheating disrespectful man
Man thats really hard, to find out that your man was cheating and now he is dead!!! WOW
I would not have a funeral I would cremate his tail the DOB, he thought he was a player well he got played bang, bang fool stop playing with poeoples hearts, if I can’t have you no one can is a ——-. stop playing with peoples emotions, it is much easier to just get a divorce and move on.

My sentiments exactly. I would be in the Carribean somewhere with my kids. I would not even want to subject myself or my kids to that type of humiliation.
