With the recent loss of Chico13 (R.I.P.), we are left without a moderator in the Bolivia Forum. I have brought this up to Dark Knight, but I have yet to hear back from him about this. It was also brought to my attention by HeartandSoul (Chile Mod), who also pushed me to start this thread as he thinks I am the best candidate to take over. As I understand it there is a thread in the moderators section about this also I believe started by argentine soccer fan. I just wanted some feedback about this as I have yet to hear from anyone in control. Thanks!
How do y'all know he died??? And how did he pass ? I know we never know how young or old certain posters are but dang .
In the 20+ years that BigSoccer has existed, Chico is at least the third member to pass on. Honorable mention to @TheSlipperyOne 's "Big Ed." While not a member, Big Ed had one heck of a thread dedicated to him(?) back in the day. I don't quite remember all those him/her details, but it made the thread rather juicy.
Chico was a LEGEND. It's funny this thread was bumped back up....I feel like it's him that made it happen. I just mentioned him yesterday in a thread in the Bolivia forum, his team The Strongest did the unthinkable--beating Sao Paulo and shutting them out. Chico was one of 2 founders of DC United's Barra Brava that essentially was the FIRST to show how the rest of the teams/fans how to cheer. He's (I hope) going to be remembered with a section in the new Stadium with his name 'Chico' in the future when it opens. RIP buddy. We miss ya.
Oh wow. It's a shame the other quotes aren't accessible via the Internet Archive. Kids, let this be a lesson to always back up your work. Always.
