NFLPA Executive Director Gene Upshaw Dies

I heard this on the radio but can't find a link from NFL.

Yes, it's true. Very sad. Didn't even know he had pancreatic cancer (which is one of the worst you can have)

I'm going to edit the thread title

I'm hounding them right now to get something on. NFL.com has nothing either

I dont know whats more surprising. That he died or that no media seems to notice. RIP Gene.

Found it on NBC Sports. He will be missed, his contributions to Pro Football as a player and as one who tended to the best interest of all players are imeasurable.
