    OG Poster Chico2663 Passes Away

    He passed away at age 60 Tuesday morning from, among other things, congestive heart failure. Spent the last week or so in a coma, which really sucked as no one could give him anything resembling a goodbye. He absolutely loved SBR, wasn't in great health the last few years but sure talked this place up. Know some of you had disagreements with him, as did I, but he was a good man. RIP, my friend.

    I'm going to have to go back and review the conversations I had with him. I know he battled thru health problems multiple times. I was hopeful that he had gotten past it.

    RIP, chico.

    Ugh. That's really terrible news. He was one of the legends and longstanding members of SBR

    RIP Chico. Condolences to his family and friends.

    60 way too young. He crossed over and if any of you see your lights flicker it might be him visiting. Makes me think everyone here at SBR should buddy up with one person randomly and KIT with them even if you don't agree on political bullshit.

    Prayers for Chico and his family!

    Sad to hear the news about Chico.

    I found his biographical episodes enjoyable, informative
    and often times producing deep laughter.
    Chico met the movers and shakers of Ohio and Texas and
    spared no secrets.

    May You Rest In Peace.

    Mpash & I were chatting as he didn’t set his fantasy lineup so assumed he was sick but hoping for the best. So sorry to this. Whether you agreed or disagreed w his post was always a funny guy.

    RIP 🪦 my man!

    Condolences to the family. RIP Chico.

    Every time I would see his posts I would spend a moment puzzling over the chick in his avatar. He will be missed.

    Agree with you on keeping in touch randomly. Shit happens in life quickly and people are here and gone. The political crap doesn’t matter in the end anyway.

    My bedroom fan light has randomly been turning on the past few days.

    Maybe ol' chico is trying to send a message...

    Good advice. I'm awful at keeping in touch with people, always have been. Out of sight, out of mind for the most part. There are many things I can improve on but that is near the top of the list.

    As far as politics go, it is difficult to deal with those that you feel have contributed to the deterioration of the country. I choose to just ignore/avoid them for the most part but probably not a good way to go about it.

    RIP Chico and best of luck with The Man.

    I just had the urge to read some of his posts. Went to advanced search.
    Had no idea the ENTIRE Politics & Economics forum - which shows in search but no longer exists,
    cannot even be read anymore.

    Chico was a man's man...

    Tuvimos nuestras batallas a lo largo de los años. Por supuesto, gané todos y cada uno de ellos, pero siempre respeto tu pasión. Espero que estés en un lugar mejor rodeado de tanto amor, hijo de puta.
