**BoKnowsBest** · 08-10-16, 10:09 AM

Hannah Storm announced it from Rio and I am pretty sure she is the one that announced Stuart Scott passed away as well

**actiondan** · 08-10-16, 10:12 AM

ESPN did not say. He was not on Sports Reporters last Sunday cannot remember 2 Sundays ago

**MUHerd37** · 08-10-16, 10:37 AM

He was good, but another fukkin SJW. Can't even watch Sports Reporters anymore because being an SJW seems to be a requirement on there now.

**LT Profits** · 08-10-16, 10:42 AM

RIP to what was one of the very few ESPN bright spots these days.

**jjgold** · 08-10-16, 10:43 AM

Way too young..this one hitting hard

Thank god for sjw in the 1770's or we maybe still under britains rule. Or in the early 40's or we maybe speaking german. Everyone hates warriors when they aren't the ones being railed for!

**chico2663** · 08-10-16, 10:52 AM

I don't think you know what an SJW is.

**chico2663** · 08-10-16, 10:57 AM

social justice warrior? No taxation without representation

**jjgold** · 08-10-16, 11:03 AM

Now I heard he had health issues younger and I had an accident of some sort

No, there is a difference between a social justice warrior and an activist.

**TheSideBet** · 08-10-16, 11:11 AM

Was a great announcer. Damn and right before football season.

**chico2663** · 08-10-16, 11:16 AM

sjw involves a class and our forefather were considered undesirables.Low class if you will. I am just pulling your chain. I get tired of people pushing certain agendas

**BuckyOne** · 08-10-16, 11:36 AM

Wow, said news - very distinctive voice - always enjoyed his work

**sweep** · 08-10-16, 11:41 AM

sickle cell

**beefcake** · 08-10-16, 11:50 AM

RIP..But I always hated how he sucked the dick of the BCS and was anti playoff

**CanuckG** · 08-10-16, 11:59 AM

Suicide?

**Mac4Lyfe** · 08-10-16, 12:03 PM

Damn, my favorite announcer by far. Much too young. Prayers to his wife and 2 kids.

My guess would be a heart attack. 1 out of every 2 men in the US will die from one.

**sandos139** · 08-10-16, 12:39 PM

**Chi_archie** · 08-10-16, 12:42 PM
