ESPN analyst Stuart Scott......

[Yinzerlyn]

died today at the age of 49. He had been battling cancer for a while.

RIP Stuart. You were one of my favorites.

Wow sad....

 

[thesteelcity]

wow, what sad news. I didn't realize he was sick. Very young. RIP Mr. Scott.

 

[Yinzerlyn]

Yeah, I didn't know he was sick until a few weeks ago when Suzy Kolber said something about it prior to a game. I had wondered why I hadn't seen him on lately, but thought they were phasing him out for new blood.

 

[Stainless]

That sucks. I didn't realize he was in such bad shape, but it explains that little tribute thing they had for him a few weeks ago on Monday Night Football. Suzy Kolber seemed pretty emotional, and now we know why.

 

[Stainless]

He had a couple prior bouts with cancer.

 

[Yinzerlyn]

And suddenly last night's loss has been put into perspective.

 

[Stainless]

Yeah, this is quite sad.

 

[scstillerfan]

Very sad. RIP young man.

 

[STEELERS R GR8]

And suddenly last night's loss has been put into perspective.

Yes very well said....

....Cool as the other side of the pillow......

R.I.P. Stuart........

RIP Stuart Scott...

 

[Supersteeler]

Bummed me out a bunch when I heard it this morning.

 

[Yinzerlyn]

Watching a tribute to him on Sportscenter and I am sobbing.

 

[Chicoman]

So sad to hear about Scott I really liked him.

All I gotta say is 2.1% 5 year survival rate for cancer patients treated with Chemo, Surgery & Radiation. 47% of cancer patients die of Cachexia better known as Malnutrition.

If your get cancer fight it this way.... http://thetruthaboutcancer.com/ BOOYEAH!

Drag....haven't watched espn in a while but back in the day when they were pretty much the only option Stuart used to be very entertaining! RIP

 

[mdk2]

Prayers and thoughts to his family. He was great at his job and sounded to be even better person. RIP Stu.

Enjoy life to the fullest and I will always enjoy watching the black and gold, win or lose... after all it is just a game and fortunately life does goes on.

 

[Sarge]

Never cared much for his schtick, but this is truly as sad outcome. The guy had a passion for his job and for his life, and those are admirable traits. RIP Stuart, Godspeed.

 

[Yinzerlyn]

He has a college aged daughter and a 14 year old daughter. Breaks my heart.

 

[Omar10213245]

My heartfelt sympathies go out to Stuart's family, friends and colleagues.

I pray that humanity might one day solve this scourge we call cancer, even if its well after my time

 

[SteelerFan448]

Stuart Scott was one of about five or six SportsCenter anchors that I grew up with and imitated while I was younger. I've heard nothing but good things about him and am saddened by this news. Prayers to his family and friends.

 

[mightyguru]

RIP Stuart. You were damn good.

 

[TAS]

Haven't watched ESPN for years but back when I did Stuart was one of my favorites for sure with his big eyes and catch phrases. RIP sir

 

[Yinzerlyn]

Even if a person didn't like him or his style, he/she should watch Scott's ESPY award acceptance speech from last summer. I was snort sobbing watching it.

 

[Elfiero]

My heartfelt sympathies go out to Stuart's family, friends and colleagues.

Don't worry we'll pray it away one day.

 

[Yinzerlyn]

Don't worry we'll pray it away one day.

Stay classy, Elfie. Save your anti Christianity comments for another thread. Warning number one.

And if you have something to say, PM me. I am NOT going to turn this thread into one filled with disrespect.
