The Legend of Stuart
Scott
This past Sunday, ESPN,
America, and the world lost one of it better human beings. After a long ongoing
battle with a rare and often deadly cancer, Stuart Scott finally passed away at
the age of a young 49 years old. He will forever be remembered for his hard-work,
the influence on his colleagues, his humor, and his incredible speaking skills.
He was a terrific sports
analyzer for the popular television network, ESPN, and this July following his
final birthday he received a prestigious award from ESPN. During his incredible
acceptance speech, he says that,
“When you die, it does not mean that you lose to
cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the manner in
which you live.” I believe this was the most moving quote of his speech.
He was an inspiration to all people who are fighting cancer and to people who
weren't
.
I, being an avid ESPN
fan, always enjoyed and listened to what he had to say about the world of
sports. He had a voice that made you want to listen to him. In my honest
opinion he was one of my favorite reporters on the show and I will miss him
deeply. I watched his speech after receiving his award and it made my eyes
water. He was a dedicated man, a loving father, and a true hero. He will be
missed by all.
