RIP Rich Tandler
I just saw a news story saying he passed away last night. Sorry to learn of it.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Indeed. This deserves its own thread. He was a Redskins Blogger before he moved on to NBC, and given our little place on the Redskins-related internet, we have a lot in common and a lot to thank him for.
Rest in peace Rich, you provided so much for us to enjoy and talk about over the years.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
one of the few Redskins sources I rely on...guy was awesome. Always liked how he didn't sugar coat things and wasn't afraid to say the things people wouldn't who cover the team. That's one thing about Keim...sometimes he gives the benefit of doubt to the FO, when they certain don't deserve it.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Wow! This is a shock! I liked Tandler's approach to covering the 'skins. He didn't sugar coat things. Sometimes it got under my skins and sometimes it felt a bit pessimistic, but overall, I appreciated his incite. He will be sorely missed!

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Holy shit. That's awful! Really relied on his coverage in the last few years--a quality sports reporter who told it like it was.
RIP!

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Man. That sucks. He did it right. The outpouring of love for that guy is pretty amazing.
I hope we can all leave a mark like he did.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
I'm so shocked and sad about this. RT was a hell of a reporter and I loved listening to him on the Redskins Talk Podcast. Rest in peace RT.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
There's a saying, "No man is without enemies." But from the outpouring of sympathy in the last 6 hours, that may not have applied to Rich.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Terrible news. Does anyone know who how he passed? This seemed kind of sudden.

Re: RIP Rich Tandler
Horrible to hear of his passing. My heart goes out to his family. Dude was a good beat writer and an all around good guy.
