On Sunday, George expects those emotions to come flooding back again.

When he hears the roar of the crowd, and when he hears fans chant his name, he'll go back in time.

The only thing that could make it better would be if his buddy, Steve McNair, could share it with him.

On Sunday, McNair's widow, Mechelle, will return to Nissan Stadium with the couple's two sons, Tyler and Trent, along with Steve's mother, his brothers, and a big group of family members and friends from Mississippi.

"But you know what? Steve will be there, I know he will be," George said. "And this is a great way for his boys to see their father in the light that we all saw him, and that was as the ultimate team player, a great leader, a great warrior, a man who was loved by the people not just because of the way he played, but also because of the way he cared for others in the community.
