I don't know Jags1stNole2nd so I don't know if he's actually making fun of Scott's appearance in a malicious way or not. That's for you to decide I guess.


What I do know is that everybody pokes fun at others appearance to a certain degree. I make fun of Forrest Whitaker's lazy eye on occasion but I in know way think it makes him any less of a person. He's a great actor and probably a great person as well. SNL has made fun of people for years and years because it's funny but you know they respect the people they make fun of. I've never felt they have intentionally and malliciously degraded someone for their physical appearance or anything else for that matter.


In my case it's always been done jokingly and never personally.


Stuart Scott was one of my favorites as a young kid growing up watching Sportscenter and he will be missed. But I'm sure even he would say we have to be able to laugh at ourselves. Like another poster said Stu would probably think a name like Stuart Scotts Lazy Eye is comical.
