With his posthumous memoir, ESPN’s Stuart Scott hits a walk-off
Posted Mar 9, 2015
But when I learned that Stuart Scott had completed a memoir shortly before dying at 49 of appendiceal cancer in January, I knew I would read it. Maybe because I was such a fan of his work on ESPN, with every “boo-yah!” making him as cool as the other side of the pillow. Maybe because my sister had also been in television broadcasting. Maybe because, after another family member was diagnosed and treated last year, I realized that avoiding something doesn’t mean it will avoid you.
