Cancer Returns for ESPN's Stuart Scott

Long-time ESPN personality Stuart Scott shared some very bad news with the Twitter-verse Monday night; something that he had hoped would not come back again after his last two fights:

Blessed by prayers..I'm back in the Fight. C reared its head again. Chemo evry 2 wks but I'll still work, still work out..still #LIVESTRONG

It's heartbreaking news for the sports reporter who has twice had to fight cancer and beaten it. He was first diagnosed back in 2007 with appendiceal cancer. After going through chemo therapy he was deemed cancer-free, but early in 2011 it came back.

This time it was in his small intestines. More chemo and surgery took care of it, but now it is back for a third time.

Scott has been with the ESPN family since 1993 when ESPN2 was launched. His first gig was as the host of SportsNight. Since then he has gone on to become one of the most recognized figures in sports reporting today.

Best of luck to you Stuart. The sports world is pulling for you man!
