Good fucking riddance. This uppity nigger didn't do shit except for make football unaffordable for the everyday fan. $90 nosebleed tickets? $11 beers? Blame Upshaw. Now that he's dead maybe we can get this shit under control.

lol you think it's bad now,Upshaw was the NFL's owners boy, he went along with any plan they made. The current players hated him.

The new voted in Union head will be more powerful than Donald Fier (MLBs player rep)

the owners broke out of the old deal to keep more cash on their end, limit rookie contracts and refine the Code of Conduct so they just release dudes like Michael Vick and Adam Jones with out paying them because they knew Upshaw would playball and get the players to agree to terms.

The players are going to look to crush the owners we're talking MLB level contracts. The owners will have lock the players out in 2010 there is no way they can let them play that season without a salary cap and without Upshaw to agree to any shit deal the owner throw their way.

All the codes of conduct rules the NFL throws at the criminal players will be out right abolished.

The old old retired players are fucked, they'll never get their pentions raised now. Upshaw did a terrible job to help them but whoever comes in won't have to be any better since the current players don't give a shit about them anyways.

Did anyone else see the irony that he died at the age of 63, and that was his shirt # when he played guard for the Oakland Raiders.

Irony would be if Upshaw had once said "All football players end up living beyond the age of their uniform number" and then he didn't.

his death all but guaranteed play stoppage. Now that upshaw isnt there to talkl between both sides it will get worse. Players will want guaranteed contracts like MLB and NBA and owners will either let them strike or jack up your nosebleed and beer prices.
