Oh man this makes me sad, I have such fond memories watching his broadcasts :(. RIP Dutch, thanks for your voice - 57 is way too young.

Edit: Fuck cancer

Did everyone see the trio of TSN sportscasters that worked with him host a 15 minute memories of Darren yesterday? Actually brought me to tears on more than 1 occasion. He was loved even if he was politically incorrect at times. Appeared to have a large personality!
