But fuck you guys. The man was beloved and he died way too young from cancer.

I always loved Stu. RIP

shut up bammer.

No one was ripping stuart scott. Just expressing surprise at how beloved he was. He was a slightly hipper Steve Levy, who cancer speeched his way into being some sore of transcendent figure.

Eye joke not funny.

Michael Sam's speech the same night was much better IMO.

Grew up watching Stu Scott, loved the guy.

YOU didn't think the eye joke was funny. Other people (or at least person) did.

Im glad you loved stuart scott.

at least we've all learned it's BOO-YOW, not BOO-YAH.

I'll just go ahead and say RIP, enjoyed watching the dude for many years.

Is it wrong to say he was part of what has made ESPN so annoying over the years? All the boo ya stuff, ect.

he may be annoying to you but as spike said he was very important to black people....had he not become sick and been able to keep a consistent presence on espn it's highly unlikely events like ferguson would occurred

thats the best lenny post in awhile.

as a sportscaster didnt like him

didnt know him as a person but from the outpouring of grief from his coworkers you can tell he had a profound impact on many many people

i'm looking for an enlightened, nuanced approach to racial issues, free of any sub-textual messages. am i in the right thread?

most people dislike stuart scott...it's not because his skin tone is black, but mostly because of the hip-hop persona he brought to espn as well as his cultural proclivities

bungle joy

I haven't really liked him that much for probably the last 5-10 years or so. But I loved him when I was a kid.

Yup.

can we start a poll to see how many people liked or disliked him? it seems to be very important

What if it is both? Can that be an option in said poll?

That sounds like I don't have an opinion, but I most certainly do!

I hate these filthy neutrals. With enemies you know where they stand but with neutrals? Who knows. It sickens me.
