    Hopefully this thread will remain respectful, the man did a lot for the city of Houston and people in general, he'll be missed by many.

    Didn't realize he was just 81, he had started to look much older than that. Sad news for his loved ones.

    Sounds like maybe his cancer came back and that's what did him in.

    He just beat cancer not too long ago. That would explain some of the withering.

    I'm sad to hear this. I know many here at clutchfans have openly proclaimed that they hoped he would die. We all know this is true. But, Bob McNair was a good man that did much for this city, and the man who brought the NFL back to Houston. Very sad news.
