Lazy eye? Did you watch the video?  He is blind in that eye.

Is it from the cancer, or has he always had it?

He's been on ESPN for ages and always had it.  He's had some rough issues along the way.

So that makes him even better then. He was/is one of the best sportscasters ever.

Try reading a teleprompter with one eye.  :-X

This has nothing to do with politics. It has everything to do with the human spirit.

The will to live is powerful.  You either cower like a baby, or you take charge.

Alpha or beta?  Alphas face death head on.

Cancer is Alpha, humans, not so much.  Hope this helps.

Agreed. But you can choose how you die from cancer. 5 year olds have shown us that. 

You can either tank it like an early mike Tyson opponent, or you can get knocked out swinging.

There is a proper way to die.

This is why I am glad I do not have kids. I would be the same way. Once a baby is born, your life should belong to ensuring it's survival.

It has to be the worst feeling in the world.

I saw him once live at the ESPN stores in times square.  He was prepping to read the prompter.  He really comes off as a dude who can be or is a big time jerkoff.  Like he wouldn't give you the time of day if you approached him on the street. 

Wasn't his eye problem due to being hit with a ball or something?

I have never met Stuart Scott, but It does bring up a good point. Are famous people expected to be nice all of the time?

These people must be bombarded 24/7 by the general public. Stuart Scott is a famous sportscaster. Stuart Scott is a millionaire. Stuart Scott has cancer.

Sorry if he doesn't smile 100% of the time.

If I remember right he was hit in the head with a football while covering a practice or something of that nature for ESPN.

Stuart Scott networth: 15 million.

He did it the hard way too. Came from the bottom and invested in his companies stock.

He also is also one of the best sportscasters ever.

Even if he dies, his family will be taken care of.

Alpha male.

Thats the most absurd thing I have ever heard.  You do not get to choose how you die from cancer.

You can't choose how you die from cancer. You can absolutely choose how you handle said cancer.

Pain is inevitable. Fear is inevitable. Serenity in those final days are only reserved for the strong willed.

Must commend Shizzo, making some quality posts, attention whoring to a minimum.

I'm kinda put off by the phrase "battling cancer," which sometimes/often leads to one having "lost the battle." I know it's just a figure of speech, but it implies that it's somehow within your control, or ultimately, you didn't fight hard enough.

Just venting, sorry.

(Not that you did this.)
