hello Monday!
hello beautifuls!
this is not the post that i originally intended for this morning.
i woke to find this on my son's facebook page.
the script from his broadcast last evening...
Jay's tribute to a person who fed his and thousands backyard dreams.
Stuart's passing, and Jay's tribute resurfaced my memories of
the sweet sounds of youth calling "play by play".
the backyard baseball and driveway basketball "BooYah!"
the backyard baseball and driveway basketball "BooYah!"
Scott had the kids all seeking "the cool side of the pillow".
Stuart Scott fought for seven years.
i love this image of Jay letting Donte take the mic at the Fiesta Bowl
media days. perhaps this moment in time will lead him to
sports journalism one day.

Stuart, thank you for bringing your sparkle to
the eyes and heart of a little guy on 34th street!
(wonderful tribute son.)
