I'll be the first to admit, I wasn't a Stuart Scott fan initially. I was in my teens when he a Rich were a team. Patrick and Olbermann had more of the style I liked. As time wore on I found myself saying the catch-phrases that Scott had introduced to the world. In time, he became one of my favorites. His ESPY's speech was a game-changer.

I really liked him when I used to watch Sportscenter (with the internet, I just check everything online now). Cancer sucks. One of our salespeople was just diagnosed with terminal cancer, just out of the blue, and it just sucks.
Worked with someone that had it. Once it got into his lymph nodes it just slowly ate him away. Never smoked, didn't drink. Got regular exercise. He had taken 2 weeks off and was supposed to be back in a day or two when his wife called us when he took a turn for the worse. Got to the hospital and was walking in when someone texted me that he just passed.

I have to say he was my favorite all-time on ESPN. From day one.....he had a different way of looking at things, and did things his own way.....even though at first it seemed a little off. Impossible to replace.

That was an amazing speech. Stuart was always my favorite, he will be missed.
