Richard "Dick" Harden (born April 20, 2028) is an American football tight end for the Tijuana Luchadores of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL).

Early years

Born to parents John and Keihanaikukauakahihuliheekahaunaele Harden, Richard "Dick" Harden had a timultuous child hood. Growing up on the "Friendly" island of Molokai, Hawaii, Dick had to take care of himself from a very young age. Without proper parenting and mentorship, as most youths of such remote places, Dick turned to drugs and violence to deal with personal issues. Dick soon however found a healthy outlet in the sport of American Football. Quoted as saying of his youth, "Yeah you know, other than like fishing, hunting, snorkeling, boating, and chill on the beach there wasn't much to do back home you know. We had a rough life you know, and we took that out on each other, but then I found football you know." The drugs and criminal issues continued to follow him. A 3-star recruit coming out of Molokai High School, the best that the school had seen in over a decade, no college was willing to touch him.

College career

With no college prospect Dick turned to the underground world of unsanctioned football leagues in Pattaya, Thailand. In a 10 week season playing for the Walking Street Gentlemen of the Night, whose mascot was a Rooster very akin to a Sriracha bottle, Dick managed to average 226 rec yds and 3.7 TDs per game (Unofficial) leading to the Men of the Night winning the 2047 UTFL (Underground Thai Football League) Championship (Unofficial), although some refute its legitimacy. A second season would not go so well, with the returning champions Dick had already accumulated 420 rec yds, 69 rush yds and 7 tds (Unofficial) by the 2nd quarter of game number two, but a raid by the DSI (Thailand Department of Special Investigations) ended the game as well as the rest of the UTFL season. With most owners in Thai prison and the majority of players fined, Dick returned to the US to attend Greendale Community College. Still striving to be the best, one year removed from competitive football, Dick entered the DSFL draft hoping a team was willing to give him a chance based on his very high production (Unofficial) in the UTFL.

DSFL career

With the 118th pick of the 2050 DSFL Draft the Tijuana Luchadores selected Richard "Dick" Harden. Harden went on to say in a post-draft interview "You know I'm just like glad someone was willing to give me a shot, for me to prove that I'm the best player for the team you know, like, I will do what needs to be done and do it well." The 8-time DSFL Champ Tijuana Luchadores were willing to take the flier on Harden noting his domination in the now defunct UTFL (Unofficial) and his determination to overcome adversity, hoping both would translate into a solid late round pick. When asked what he wanted to work on the most in his innaugural season, Harden responded, "Well you know, like, I need to, just like everyone you know, get better at like my hands and footwork, both for like routes and blocking you know. I just want to like do whatever I can to help the team you know."
