MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ Remembers the Life of ESPN’s Stuart Scott

‘He spoke the language that we spoke ... Stuart Scott was huge for ESPN and for sports’

GEIST: "Start with 'Boo-yah!‘That’s Stuart Scott. My son who is five says 'Boo-yah!' He knows who Stuart Scott is. That's the effect of him. You know, I tweeted put yesterday, I cannot count the number of nights I spent on the couch beginning in college, at 1am, with Stuart Scott and Ray Jason, watching SportsCenter. And then they would re-run the same SportsCenter and you watch it again because the guy was so entertaining."

SCARBOROUGH: "Right. They were so good."

GEIST: "Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann deserve their place in the [indecipherable]. They changed the whole thing."

SCARBOROUGH: "Sure."

GEIST: "But after that, Stuart Scott changed it again because he spoke the language that we spoke. He watched the movies that we watched, he listened the music we were listening. He spoke the way we spoke. Stuart Scott was a huge for ESPN and for sports."
