Human nature? Perhaps some scattered hunter gatherers where relationships were started young, and lasted only 20 years tops BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN PEOPLE DIED!

Living in a small clan, people were exposed to the elaborate social network that is modern society, and weren't alive to have quality longer lives.

Compared to what was initially human nature, people live like gods.

Instead of hunting, gathering, and protecting our offspring from disease and preditors, we have the luxury to dwell on our feelings and desires that have become greater than our basic needs of food and shelter.

So I say, let it the fuck go ... there are 6 billion people on this planet and the odds of meeting someone who shares your ideals and philosophy in the 60 plus years of relative health and prosperity that you are likely to receive in this country and lifetime vs. any other point in history are significantly greater than they were perhaps in any other point in history.

"This even though (I get the impression from what I've read) his wife knew about the girlfriend, which implies that he and wife were no longer romantically involved. Or maybe they had an open relationship."

The "Open Relationship" killed him!

Because "Open Relationships",
contrary to Dan's EXPERT OPINION,
are contrary to human nature.
And sooner or later one of the parties is going to snap and go postal.

COME ON PEOPLE!

It's simple sexual economics and supply and demand. The same can be said for rock stars, movie stars, politicians, etc. etc.

And I'm getting a little bored with it, and leave it to sexually frustrated, embittered Americans who aren't getting any to pee on someone elses success.

I guess, wnen I was living in Oregon. I have never come across more shrewd and oppressive bitches in my entire life, who reveled in passionless stable relationships. At the same time, I have never seen so many adult and strip shops in my entire life. Most of the town outside of the University area looked a slightly cleaner version of North Aurora.

At least Steve McNair succeeded in social monogamy, and if everyone is on the same page, I guess that's enough for me.

The only tragic part about this is the damage he inflicted on his wife and kids before getting killed.

No matter what he gave back to his community, what a gifted athlete he may have been or how nice of a guy, this is the legacy he passes onto his kids.

Well done.

Gunshot wounds are the one injury he couldn't shake off

I strongly suspect
you are not a True Believer
in Armed Insurrection
against the tide of
Socialism sweeping
our Beleaguered Republic.

Mockers will be
the First to Go
when Justice is installed.
(OK,
maybe second,
right after
homosexual sex columnists...)

This - and Barack Hussein Obama's presidency - are a reason why armed insurrection against high taxes is inevitable.
