I know there's several people on here that at least occasionally listen to the Total Soccer Show, and many of you will know that he's been battling some pretty serious cancer. Well, unfortunately, they just announced that the doctors have told him that he will not win this fight.

That’s not good news, cancer sucks. I enjoy their show even though I haven’t had much time to listen lately.

Never heard of him or his show, but this is something that is always so terrible to hear... cancer is a mean motherfricker..

Probably the best show with a focus on American soccer, but also a bit of EPL, Bundesliga, etc. Highly recommend it if you're looking for something new.

Not just that but soccer 101 is a great listen as well.

This is sad news because he seemed positive about it normally if it came up on the show.

Same. That was tough as hell to listen to.

He was taking part in a drug trial. It’s immunotherapy, basically getting your immune system to fight the cancer. Cancer has a bunch of mechanisms that makes it harder for your body to find it and kill it. It masquerade as your own tissues, for example, so your body doesn’t recognize it as foreign. In the last update on the go fund me they said he has responded very well to the immunotherapy and it was only the metastatic tumors in his liver that were left, which is pretty insane considering he had stage 4 colon cancer. Immunotherapy is the future of cancer treatment. And yet, it is still the emperor of all maladies.

Prayers for Daryl and his family. He was always so positive, could not have happened to a worse person.

So sad. Ngl, kind of depressed about this. Daryl was such a great guy and did so much for US soccer, not to mention the podcast with him and Taylor was great for many reasons but obviously their chemistry played a big part.

Absolutely crushing news. I think I’ve been listening to them for over 4 years. Hearing Taylor announce it today was just devastating

Wolves, Daryl’s favorite club, tweeted in his honor and it definitely hit me in the chest like a sledgehammer

This hurt me more than I thought it would.

I feel like I lost someone that I knew personally.
