The documentary "Boo-Yah: A Portrait of Stuart Scott" chronicles the trailblazing ESPN anchor who broke barriers, brought hip-hop culture to SportsCenter and inspired millions.

I didn't even like sports but would tune in just for Mr. Scott's commentary on highlights & humor

He was a singular talent for that channel. His presence defined an era.

Then ESPN went from the Stuart Scott caliber of talent to Screechy McScreecherson aka Stephen A. Smith
Just eeewww

Nooooo! But, you know, I know where you're coming from. Good mangos are SO GOOD but I've had a few that tasted like raw potato 😭

Of this group I may ditch pears. I've had some weird-ass gritty pears.
