[horsielove]

As long as Kirby doesn't ring.

[100%duncan]

Wow. The dude was young. RIP tbh.

[blkroadrunners]

RIP. I still remember one of the first time I truly recognized him was his pre-game phrases from NBA 2K5 such as "holla at a playa if u see him on the street" or "oh Canada!" when introducing Steve Nash.

[SupremeGuy]

RIP :toast

Fucking dude seemed chill as fuck and fought, hard. Cancer is a bitch. I hope he found peace.

[DeadlyDynasty]

RIP

Awful news to wake up to. He fought like hell.

[ElNono]

RIP

[Mugen]

RIP.

[100%duncan]

Was he already sick during the nba finals? He seemed fine.

[DMX7]

Great great speech. He seemed like a cool guy. RIP.

[loveforthegame]

Sad news. RIP.

One of the most memorable speeches.

[100%duncan]

nvm he's been battling since 2007. Cancer is a motherfucker, sad day.

[unleashbaynes]

RIP.....dude battled his ass off like a champ. He was one of a kind.

[benefactor]

:depressed

[lmbebo]

+1

Read he had appendiceal cancer after an urgent appedenctomy in 2007 (Pittsburgh). Apparently he had 3 rounds of surgery and at least 50 rounds of chemo. He tried to never let the treatments interfere with his life, stating he had chemo in the morning and then work at night.

He also never knew his staging. Didn't want to know how advanced it was.

Tough pill to swallow

[The Franchise]

For licking another guys taint.

He almost died while covering the 2013 Finals, so I think that's why ESPN had him do the trophy presentation for the 2014 Finals.

[unforeseen]

As long as Kirby doesn't ring.

Too soon?

[TE]

Fuck man RIP.

[chicken eye]

As long as Kirby doesn't ring.

Sad news. R.I.P. And yet....I LOL'd at this comment. I'm a horrible human being....

[DPG21920]

Cancer is terrible - a lot of times you think you may be in the clear, but those rounds of chemo/radiation and surgeries take their toll on your body. Sad, but he lived a good life.

[weebo]

:depressed

[DAF86]

Cancer is a motherfucking bitch.

[DMC]

RIP

[timtonymanu]

:depressed

[~O~]

R I P
but fuck ESPN

[cjw]

Kind of knew it was coming but still brutal news. Rarely do people love their job as much as he did - he brought it every night and truly was an institution in the living rooms of sports fans for the past 20 years. Made us all love sports a little more.

And might have been the first guy to get Kawhi to ever smile!

[Budkin]

Cancer needs to get cancer tbh

[dirk4mvp]

Suddenly everyone has fond memories of Scott and he was always their favorite sports anchor :rolleyes

[Thebesteva]

Cancer needs to get cancer tbh

Yeah, its really hard to break the news to a patient tbh

[LkrFan]

RIP. :(

[Chris]

Terrible news. He died much too young , RIP

[Trill Clinton]

life is short. tell your loved ones you love them as much as you can.

[Thread]

Too soon?

We have to wait for Media on such issues. They'll let us know.

[DAF86]

Suddenly everyone has fond memories of Scott and he was always their favorite sports anchor :rolleyes

Personally I don't give a fuck but it made me think about Cancer and how everyone I know seems to die from that. There's a good chance both of us go out that way, tbh.

Nah, never liked the guy, but can't believe he didn't see it coming. He was looking both ways at all times.

[DMC]

At least he warned you before he came.

[ElNono]

Hope Ismael Gutierrez is next, tbh

[Thread]

...I was pulling for Pop to get a brain tumor, but, where the fuck would it find a foothold?

[DMC]

...I was pulling for Pop to get a brain tumor, but, where the fuck would it find a foothold?

I think Pop gave Stuart cancer by having his face too close.

[HI-FI]

Scott was never a favorite, but he was a huge part of ESPN. He was very courageous in his fight, not sure how I would've handled it. Sad it happened. RIP.


Hope Ismael Gutierrez is next, tbh
:lol

[SupremeGuy]

Hope Ismael Gutierrez is next, tbhC'mon man, that's harsh. :lol

[Robz4000]

RIP

[KaiRMD1]

Maybe BSPN will follow. Magic will still live though, old sport and death just don't mix apparently

[Robz4000]

Hope Ismael Gutierrez is next, tbh

Him or Windhorst.

Doesn't have to be your favorite analyst to give your condolences

[FkLA]

He was an iconic ESPN personality, he'll be missed. RIP. :(

[Strange Love]

Shitty news to wake up to.

[Malik Hairston]

RIP, battling cancer 3 times is crazy, can't imagine how much life that would take out of you, tbh..

In all honesty, I thought he was already dead, though..

I wouldn't say that this guy was my favorite sports anchor, but he was pretty good. Shame to hear the news and wish his family the best.

[Killakobe81]

No disrespect but thought he was corny as an adult as a kid loved him Patrick, Olbermann, Kilborn. ESPN was so good then. Boo Ya cool as the other side of the pillow was good stuff. Heard some ststuff about his battle with cancer and what a great dad and mentor he was God bless his soul.

[lefty]

I cant believe he dieded


RIP

[Thread]

I thought his appearance at the ESPYs went on & on, and ended up being unbearable. Having his daughter come up was not right.

[Splits]

This thread disappointed

[Thread]

^Bend over. I'll show you fuckin' disappointed.

[AlexJones]

Hopefully Chris Berman is next. I can't wait

[scanry]

^ I wasn't the only one. Should've given him 3 minutes tops tbh.

[FkLA]

^WTF is wrong with y'all man? He's family to ESPN. You don't put a time limit on a dying family member bc some petty viewers find it unbearable.

[Thebesteva]

^Bend over. I'll show you fuckin' disappointed.


^ I wasn't the only one. Should've given him 3 minutes tops tbh.

Dude, it was the ESPY's, not the Oscars. Who gives a fuck? I thought Michael Sam getting any time on stage for eating a dick sandwich was a disgrace to humanity. I have nothing against gays, to each their own, but getting an award in 2014 for being gay is a joke. If it was 1994 then yeah, but 2014?! C'mon man

:lmao I'm glad that charade is over. Didn't he get cut in the preseason?

[Thread]

Exactly. DMC ate the head cheese.

[Agloco]

Was he already sick during the nba finals? He seemed fine.

He had fought cancer for over 7 years.

[100%duncan]

He had fought cancer for over 7 years.

Yah acknowledged that already. I don't really follow ESPN or him so i didn't now. The dude didn't even look sick during the champ celebration.

[Chillen]

RIP, way to young at 49 to pass on. He was one of the best things to ever happen to ESPN, made it worth watching Sportscenter. This is very sad, but cancer has no conscience.

booyah, you will be missed!

[DPG21920]

Yah acknowledged that already. I don't really follow ESPN or him so i didn't now. The dude didn't even look sick during the champ celebration.

Perception can be deceiving. Especially with someone who has been battling cancer over 7 years. You don't really remember what they look like 7 years ago because it ages them over time and since you weren't there every day, you didn't notice the massive changes and instead just see it gradually over time.

[hater]

well on TV everyone looks around the same especially with makeup. look at Sammy Davis Jr, nigga looked like a rat in real life

Fuck you

[baseline bum]

Nah, he looked pretty horrible. Look how skinny he was presenting the trophy. He was at least 40 pounds lighter than he was 7-8 years ago when he was healthy.

This is what he looked like in the mid 2000s

Didn't really notice since I don't watch ESPN or anything related with him so I couldn't compare and contrast. Anyways, a real professional fighting cancer for 7 years and still doing the job day in day out.

:lol saw a comment on FB the other day basically saying the same thing only it was referred to as "getting an award for licking another dude's taint."

I'm not surprised 1 ring mavfan would derail such a classy thread, tbh
