Holy crap! Doug Hamilton is reportedly dead after suffering a heart attack on the airplane after leaving San Juan! Galaxy President Dies (brief article in Spanish) RIP. Best wishes to his family! EDIT: reports are saying that he was taken to a hospital in San Juan, so I have no idea where the heart attack took place.
My complete and total condolences to the Hamilton family and friends. This is extremely sad, and it's a big loss for the soccer community today.
********!! MAN THAT SUCKS!!! God rest his soul. Nothing more scarey than someone who gets sick on airplane not much you can do since its in the air. Jesus. .How fricking sad
Well, no English link up yet. this just happened. It's seems to be a legit source. I don't what your problem is. If you're upset that you clicked a link that clearly stated "brief article in Spanish"... I don't know what to tell you.
Update: http://www.teletica.com/archivo/td7/nac/2006/03/09/4172.htm The plane took off, and turned around minutes later. Condolences to the Hamilton family.
Wow, terribly sad news for the family, all the players and staff in LA and AEG, tough day for all. Condolences to the Hamilton family.
Wow man I sure hope the stress of having to win that game didnt do him in.. Oh lord how sad. Really makes all the stuff we discuss on here so freaking trivial. My condolences to all of his family and his 5 year old son and wife. A prayer will be said for both of you tonight and for Doug and his soul.
Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
That's terrible, terrible news. Condolences to his family, to the LA Galaxy fans and organization. I really don't know what else to say...stuff like this goes far above and beyond the stuff we've been batting around for the past few days.
