ESPN’s Stuart Scott: ‘Dude, cancer sucks’

Posted Jul 8, 2014
Stuart Scott, the Lord willing, will wake up and stand on his own two feet this morning. If he’s tired, it could be because he packed a week’s worth of work into one day, not because of the cancer that’s playing tug-of-war with his body. If he’s sore, it might not be from the treatments he receives to repel the disease but from the limit-testing workout he endured the day before. (Winston-Salem Journal)
