Falcons Remember ESPN's Stuart Scott

It's been four days since the tragic loss of longtime ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, 49, who passed away after an extensive battle against cancer. Scott's family, including his two teenage daughters, Taelor, 19, and Sydni, 15, lost an invaluable member and the sports broadcasting world lost an icon. Like countless others, Falcons players remembered Scott via Twitter.
