I wish this guy nothing but the best. I picked up a NYR John Scott jersey last year after his first article, and I wear it to almost every game these days.

Best All Star game I've ever seen.
Cool guy too.

Goes to show that there are people with real lives and families outside of their sports careers.

Really happy that this happened to him. He seems like a really honest, personable guy.

That All Star game was amazing and heartwarming. John Scott is a very nice guy and I hope the movie based on him is great as well.

Also his Autobiography is out Dec 27!

so this guy is like the pro sports version of the guy in grade school with no athletic ability who everyone gets together and lets him score?

I don't get where all the goodwill toward this guy comes from. I recall him as a goon who played dirty a lot of the time, and wasn't particularly good in his role – just tall.

People troll picking him for all star game. It's was kind of douche and could see it kind of bothered him even though he tried to play it off.

Yep. Didn't belong in the league.
