"Boo-Yah"





Stuart Scott born July 19, 1965 Died January 4, 2015; he was 49 years old. Scott was   leaving his girlfriend and two daughters; Taelor and Sydni. Stuart Scott brought a lot of liveliness into the ESPN sports casting using phrases like "cooler than the other side of the pillow" and "Like gravy on a biscuit, its all good." You just don't hear things like that, not from Boomer or even Sarah Walsh. Scott put his on stamp on ESPN that no one can or will ever duplicate. He also touched the lives of many people like Jordan, Woods, Kobe, and LeBron  the list goes on and on. "'He was truly a trailblazer in his field and, by refusing to change his style, made himself into a star. I always enjoyed sitting down to talk to him. But to me he wasn't just a broadcaster, he was an old friend who I'd known since college. He fought so hard against  cancer and I hoped he'd win the battle. Booyah my Brother"'(Jordan). Stuart Scott had rare form of cancer in his appendix. The cancer was so rare that the American Cancer Society  is unable to  estimate on how often it happens and its  death ratee. The appendix is attached to the colon; it is classified as a type of colorectal cancer. Fewer than 1,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed each year with this cancer. Scott fought for seven years, he was unsure of his outcome here and there. He never gave up his will to keep going was strong.. Through his sickness he continued to do the thing he does best on the network for ESPN broadcasting. He will be missed, and he will never fade from our minds rest in peace Stuart Scott!
