Barack Obama Reacts To The Death Of ESPN’s Stuart Scott

Yesterday, people from the sports world and mourned the death of ESPN’s Stuart Scott.

While many of his colleagues, athletes, actors and others shared their thoughts on the broadcasting legend, none more prominent than the President Of The United States, Barack Obama:

“I will miss Stuart Scott. Twenty years ago, Stu helped usher in a new way to talk about our favorite teams and the day’s best plays. For much of those twenty years, public service and campaigns have kept me from my family – but wherever I went, I could flip on the TV and Stu and his colleagues on SportsCenter were there. Over the years, he entertained us, and in the end, he inspired us – with courage and love. Michelle and I offer our thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, and colleagues.”

Rest in peace, Stu. We miss you already. Boo-Yaow.
