Mawae was plopped into that spot when Vincent was part of the coup attempt or semi-coup attempt I believe. It'll be interesting to see whether he or Vincent gets the job. I'd imagine there aren't any other candidates.

Re: NFLPA Executive Director Gene Upshaw Dies

It truly is a shame that this is getting very little attention. Brett Favre passes gas and there are 10 reporters on site to describe the scent. Shame on ESPN and all others who are slow to report this. Gene Upshaw deserves much better than this. Kudos to the Warpath for giving this the attention it deserves.

RIP Mr. Upshaw

HAIL!!

They do have a deputy, Clark Gaines? or something like that, but I doubt he'll be the one selected. I think Mawae would have to retire first

Wasn't he a midnight token appointment or something?
