That's too bad man. Awful news. Different character on the screen than we were used to, very unique. Was entertaining and this is sad. Too young!

RIP Stu

Rip Stuart Scott. First announcer to bring a little hip hop to the commentary. He will be missed.

RIP. Thoughts in prayers to the family.

Met him a couple of times and he was very friendly. Such a shame. He was "as cool as the other side of the pillow"

 

[ConnHuskBask]

Sad news. RIP.

 

[JWILLDADDY101]

Rest in Peace Stuart.

 

[Scoe]

Only 49 way too young to go, that was a touching interview with Hannah Storm and Merrill Hodge, they were pretty much near tears. RIP

 

[Nnocu]

Damn. I watched him everyday when I was a kid. The guy pretty much got me in to sports. Rest in peace.

 

[husky99]

Real shame. I say him around Bristol a few times. Very nice guy

 

[UConn4ever]

Another part of my child hood gone. RIP Stuart

 

[jojipoji]

I knew him through business and I can definitely say that he was a very genuine person. Loved to talk sports and never had an air of arrogance about him. Very sad news. I feel for his daughters.

 

[DarthGrumpy]

Condolences to his family, especially to his two young daughters, tough to loose their Dad at such a young age. Will be missed.

 

[JellyBean]

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Stuart brought the cool factor to ESPN. He will be missed. Lord, Stuart made his kinfolk proud; Pookie, Ray-Ray, Moesha, Lil Sean....


RIP, Brother Stuart.

 

[Robertelamin]

Much respect. He never gave up, he just didn't win. I wish the best for his daughters.

 

[GlastonTim]

I just watched his Espy speech from this summer with my son, very moving. Brought tears to my eyes. Way too young, RIP.

 

[pnow15]

Sad day.

 

[dsturdy5]

Very sad. I haven't watched SportsCenter in years but he was a big reason why I did for a long time. The tribute video ESPN produced was both heartwarming and gut wrenching. A true man in every respect of the word. RIP.

 

[AstarIsBorn31]

Very sad just saw the tribute for him by ESPN...Condolences to his family and friends

 

[CL82]

Sad news. RIP.

 

[Kitaman]

Special broadcaster. So glad I was able to watch him. 49 - ended too soon.

 

[jibsey]

His battle has gone on for years, I feel terrible for his family to lose him at such a young age. RIP.

 

[Danzz]

Chatted briefly with him about 10 years ago at the Bradley baggage claim. Very friendly and seemed like a nice guy. Sounds like he fought his cancer right to the end. RIP.

Life isn't fair at all, why can't cancer hit the right people like Mark Emmert

I hate Emmert as much as any other Husky fan; but, I can not wish cancer on anyone and their family. That said, no problem with someone publishing pictures of Emmert taking Brown bags of cash and hookers from the BC AD.

not nice! not funny either.

Rest in peace to Stuart Scott. We lost a great one today. Grew up watching him on SC

Yeah I went to far I tried to make a quick off hand comment, can't take back what I said I will eat crow and move on. I don't wanna derail this thread, that wasn't my intention. My apologies.

 

[champs99and04]

This one really saddened me. Man, 49 is such a young age. R.I.P.

"booyah"...... Go Huskies.
