I’m not so sure, in the world of black athletes that’s pretty much the norm I think.

Well, he is alive after all. We didn’t hear a peep from him after the police killings in NYC or the other vicious attacks that followed on police across the country. But since this involved someone he cared about at ESPN, he was Johnny on the spot with his condolences.

If you don’t watch ESPN, there’s little reason to think you would. He’s emceed the Nascar awards banquet a few times that’s where I’ve seen him.

Why do most people assume that someone is gay? Yes, there are gays in the entertainment/sports/news industry but still most are heterosexual more times than not. Scott wasn’t gay and was a ladies man in fact
