Just heard that Bobby Rhine, who pretty much was FC Dallas (at least the public face of it) since arriving in the 1999 MLS draft, died yesterday, apparently of a heart attack while on vacation with his family. He was 35. Devastating. He was one of the absolute great ones. I mean, he was good at soccer, but that’s not what I’m talking about. Nicest guy you’d ever meet. Our thoughts are with his loved ones.

Bobby was truly a man of his word and had a love for life that was absolutely contagiious. Prayers for his family. I simply can’t imagine what they are going through. He will be missed by all.
An amazing person – and a true inspiration in every way.
He was a generous soul and an effervescent presence. He was always up for a chat about the game. My thoughts go out to his family.
This is unbelievably sad. What a great man. What a great family.
