OT: Stuart Scott

[ziggy7716]

I know Stuart Scott wasn't really a hockey guy at all and ESPN doesn't really cover it either a lot but earlier today he lost his battle with cancer. Real shame. Growing up he was my favorite SportsCenter anchor. RIP Stuart. "You were always cooler then the other side of the pillow"

Loved Stuart Scott, his love of sports was so obvious. He made the highlights exciting. Loved some of his sayings. Also he was a good family man, seemed like an overall good guy. My thoughts are with his family.

One of the best, very sad only 49, RIP Stuart.

So many people in the media who could pass and I wouldn't care. Why's it always have to be the good ones who do though? RIP Stuart. You were one of the good ones.

I don't watch sportscenter or espn at all since they stopped covering hockey. Had no idea this guy was sick. Very sad. So young.

yea that sux, i used to always watch ESPN, and I always liked him on there.

"stuart scott wants the fleece......boo-ya!" for some reason that stupid commercial stands out in my head.

RIP Stuart - he was one of the good guys.

While watching the tributes to Scott yesterday, I found myself thinking back to when Tom Mees died almost 20 years ago. For some reason, I remember it quite vividly. He was the face of hockey on ESPN and was pretty much the same age as Scott when he passed. He was also one of the good guys.

Heaven's got a top notch Sportscenter duo, that's for sure.

I believe he drowned?

I believe he drowned?

Yeah - fell into his neighbor's pool I believe. Don't think he knew how to swim.

Mees was an excellent hockey guy. Was very sad when he passed.

RIP Stuart. Grew up watching him on ESPN. Boo-ya.

Back in the days before the internet was the prime source for sports news I spent many an early morning watching the Eisen-Scott Sportscenter. Definitely my favorite duo besides Hick and Nick on CNN.

RIP Stuart Scott.

This is accurate.
