Wow! I did as well.

Two GREAT professional sports broadcasters and voices, Stuart Scott and John Saunders gone way too soon.

Sad to hear this. Been watching him on ESPN for nearly 30 years.

Seemed like a great guy. Not one of the loud / pampas ESPN guys.

I really liked John. Does anyone know what happened to him? The last couple of weeks he had not been on Sport Reporters.

**ggclfan** · August 10, 2016

Wow...tough to hear. I always liked Saunders...a real pro...I wonder what happened??

**Jim Schue** · August 10, 2016

I hate this. He was really great.

TJ retires, Saunders dies, yet we're probably stuck with the awful Chris Berman forever. NO JUSTICE!!!!

Sounds like he died in his sleep. His wife called 911 at 4 am saying he was unresponsive. Heart attack maybe?

Really good journalist. Solid on-the-air guy. Always been a fan of Sports Reporters.
