RIP HARDCORE DAN

Today is a sad day I just found out that Dan Sachar aka among the Raider Nation as HARDCORE, (seen here on left)was killed this morning in a car crash. He died at the young age of 31 years old.
Hardcore was a devoted, passionate, enthusiastic, loyal Raider fan who epitamized the spirit of the Raiders Nation at the games and online. I had the privilege to meet him at many Raider games and exchange and hear his thoughts and ideas online. Hardcore kept up on all the current Raider news and had the honor of being recognized and inducted in 2004 to the Pro Football Ultimate Fan Association Hall of Fame. Dan was always available for pictures on gameday.

Losing a member of the Raider Nation is like losing a family member. It's times like this that make you reflect and feel grateful for the friends and great times that you have, cause tomorrow is not guaranteed. Our prayers on behalf of the Raider Nation go out to his family, his fiancee Veronica and his friends on this tragic loss.

RIP Hardcore you will be missed
