The Amazing Grace of Stuart Scott
Posted Jan 10, 2015
Over the past week, many sports fan friends have asked me about the late, great Stuart Scott, as I worked at ESPN for nearly seven years, two decades ago. I expected that response to his passing. What I didn't expect was the questions from a number of non-sports fan friends who have never watched a SportsCenter or even ESPN (yes they exist!). Who was he? What was he like? Was he worthy of all these tributes? Did he really deserve a presidential statement?
