President Obama has led tributes to Stuart Scott, the longtime SportsCenter anchor and ESPN personality who died today from cancer at age 49.

The network says Scott died Sunday and had fought cancer since a diagnosis in late 2007, remaining dedicated to his craft even as he underwent chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.

In his sports presenting career, which began in 1987 in South Carolina, he rose from local stations to prominence on the national sports network, coining now-unavoidable phrases including the celebratory 'boo yah'.

Yet he is reluctant to mention any of the police officers and soldiers who pass away in the line of duty.

Neither cop was black. Well.....Obama does care about the lives a few non=blacks. I’m sure that both Castros will receive perfectly loving tributes from the Dictator.

Why would he do this? Was Scott gay?

"'I will miss Stuart Scott': Obama leads the tributes to ESPN anchor, 49, who coined 'boo-yah' and 'cool as the other side of the pillow'

Cripes....Obama has never heard Vin Scully ?
and booyah is all over the place. Because a guy uses it a lot doesn't mean he coined it.

My thoughts exactly.

“Tributes” to a black sportscaster, who did little to nothing to make this country better.

Color me surprised...not.

Booyah was black street gang slang by the early ‘80s, if not before.

If he was gay, it was well covered up.

He was married for a long time with kids, then traded her in for a more sporty model when he got to the big salary bracket.

Thanks Headstamp 2,

That cancer seems strange, I have never heard of it before. Can’t you take out your appendix? Seems like it spread.

I always liked Scott and enjoyed his commentary.

RIP and prayers for the family.

One of my distant relatives has a similar cancer.
They operated for appendicitis and found it.
He’s on a chemo regimen with a poor prognosis, although he’s significantly older (67) than Scott.

As I expected, Zero, the racist slimebag, sings psalms for his fellow black man regardless of contribution or importance.

Appendix cancer is extremely rare, affecting an estimated 600 to 1,000 Americans each year. Its mostly genetic and HSS very little to do with lifestyle choices

It looks like they found it during an appendectomy as a tumor.
