In the wake of Steve McNair’s murder at the hands of mistress Sahel Kazemi, it seems there’s an unending path of negativity following the former NFL MVP. The latest? The New York Daily News is reporting, via an anonymous source, that McNair carried on a six-year affair with an exotic dancer in Minneapolis, Minn.

According to the source, whom the News referred to as a “former business manager (of the strip club in question),” McNair was a “frequent visitor to the club and had an intimate and extramarital relationship” with said dancer. According to this person, the woman knew McNair was married with children, but still didn’t care.

“She liked money and athletes,” the former business manager said on condition of anonymity. “She went out with athletes before. She was one of those girls who said, ‘You’re married? You have kids? So what?’ Lets have fun.

“I can tell you that she was very upset when she learned that he had died,” the former business manager added.

The dancer was said to have an understanding with McNair, and she never wanted more than that. He would give her rent money or make car payments, according to the source. McNair would buy her plane tickets to meet up in cities where he was not going to be with his wife. “Everything was always first-class,” the source told the Daily News.

If these allegations are true, this is the latest in a line of marks against McNair, who was held in high esteem both on and off the football field as a family man with character. He was a leader on the field who earned great respect from teammates and opponents alike. He ran community outreach programs for children.

On the other hand, in the days following his murder, a string of bad news has unfolded.
