Stu Scott:

Doc, you had the worst record in the East last year, and the second worst record in the NBA. You lost a team record 18 straight games. Now you're standing here before me as a world champion.

What's the first thing you told your team when they met last fall?

Doc:

Defense. I told them that offense gets you the ooohs and aaaws. But defense wins championships.

Stuart Scott is a moron and by far the worst of the worst when it comes to the ESPN workers.

I like stu.

My boss went to college with him.

It's funny I used to like him also until his fake hood persona wore me down over time.

Lex said...

Yeah, I guess he does project that a little bit.

But I guess he was about the same in college.

Fine line between hood and cool.
