sports

personality studio host are Bob Costas NBC MLB Network Rich Eisen NFL Network DirecTV would we pay attention if we hadn't already to a crime that is so often committed behind closed doors Ernie Johnson TNT not what happened to your glasses Keith Olbermann espn2 how I remembered everything when the title alone Stuart Scott ESPN Timmy with his kids me with my youngest daughter who was with me it was a great Father's Day moment, you can't do that with Matt Vasgersian MLB Network and I get the finances restrictions no They are giants, they don't print money like the Giants do and the Emmy goes to Ernie Johnson TNT Wow, this is a special night.

I have a sponsor. One question has dominated my Twitter feed for the first 10 days of the NBA season is not what happened to your glasses. Didn't you have fun working with Shaq in NBA 2k15? The question on the minds of the Twitterverse has been when are you going to put Chuckster to the test and see what he knows about NBA rosters with everyone. favorite game show and the answer right now this is my lovely wife Cheryl we have been married we have been married for 32 years and we are about to become grandparents for the first time at the end of this month our life is great I mean , let me say something Every time I'm mentioned with that group of guys that do this, I'm very honored by that and recently I've been very honored by the fact that the folks at ESPN at East 60 saw fit to profile our family because I've adopted four children and we have a child at home connected to a ventilator who is 26 years old, but he is innocent.

This is not. This is to give props to ESPN for reaching out to someone who works at another network and saying we'd like to do this and we were impressed. So, as far as this goes, there's only one place it belongs and that's on the mantel at Stewart Scott's house, so if the girls could come up, please, this isn't for me tomorrow. Hey, look, I like a lot of people in this room. I love your dad. and having gone through cancer and him and I were texting and I just said now tell Shelly the same thing look you can have cancer but it doesn't have you and you just fight and lean on people that I love you, we love Stuart Scott, this is your Emmy, my name is Taylor Olivia Scott and we just wanted to say how grateful we are to the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and also to mr.

Johnson for recognizing our father in a way that you know we don't understand the gravity because he's just our father, but we're honored to be able to be here because he can't be here, so thank you. I'm Sydney and we would also like to thank our ESPN family for making sure we could be here on this special night. It means a lot to us to be here to accept this

award
