Hall of Fame lineman and President of the NFL Players Association Gene Upshaw lost his brief battle with pancreatic cancer.  He was only 63.  Upshaw played his illustrious 15-year career with the Oakland Raiders, went to 7 pro bowls, and won 2 Super Bowls.

He will be sorely missed by all who knew and respected him.
