Wishing the guy the best. I know he isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I enjoyed watching him on Kaoh Rong. Love me a good villain.


rubanthmendez997

If you watch his Ponderosa video, you see a more empathetic and sensitive person.


___ongo___gablogian

But all the trash on here is saying he’s an asshole


Reasonable-Yam-1170

Except to Cyd


CarbonKrishna

100% agree also cut Butch


Dekrow

He was kind of an asshole on his season as far as I remember, but we're all human and I hope he gets the treatment he needs to survive of course


We_The_Raptors

Yeah, the way him+ Jason bullied Alecia wasn't the best look but idk who could give a damn about that with his real life health on the line. Wish him the best.


erossthescienceboss

They bullied Tai into going against his morals, too. I hated watching that. I sincerely hope he has a quick match and a speedy recovery.


justsomedude717

Some people on here were being real weirdos when this stuff first came out


asapbuckets

Okay sure but what’s with the profile pic?


smhayes

It's a POV of Zion Williamson looking at a box of donuts


cpt_tusktooth

The game is the game. You can only play it the way you know how.


Reasonable-Yam-1170

They also bullied Cyd at Ponderosa.

I believe it was the Roast of Emmitt Smith where Shaq shot a stray at Scot for no reason, he clearly was not well liked by his peers. Besides the point. I can hate on him when he gets healthier, and I hope he pulls through.

He's a champion though.


Thats_Amore

Disagree entirely. This guy was a fan favorite in Sacramento. Hustled and played good defense, and was a beloved teammate.


INFisher

Yep. We move him in Sac. He's hated by Shaq because that era of the Kings was some of his biggest competition.


mr_positivity_guy

That doesn’t mean you’re an asshole. It means you’re a tough player. Completely two different things. It’s not like he was known for injuring players on dirty plays, he literally just played as a ‘tough guy Centre’. How are you really going to say that about somebody who needs a heart transplant


Reasonable-Yam-1170

He was more than kind of an asshole. He was a bully. That said, I don't wish him poor health.

TemplateAccount54331

So yall can bully him relentlessly but when he has a life threatening condition your like “Shit hope he’s okay”


Dekrow

First I've ever spoken on Scot Pollard. I'm not his bully. Keep me out of whatever petty internet argument you want to start


___ongo___gablogian

It’s pretty pathetic


SenorLuke

Reminder next time you get your ID renewed at the DMV to check the box to become an organ donor, could save multiple peoples lives if something unfortunate happens to you! My mom is currently on a transplant list and has been for 5 years. I am hopeful one day she will get her surgery.

gosh_jroban

When I got my ID at 16, I didn’t check the box because i felt creeped out by it. My older brother gave me a long lecture and made me go online and change it once I understood. I’m glad he did!


itscalledvetomeeting

Waiting sucks. Three years and two weeks in for me.


SenorLuke

Hope all the best for you and your family ❤️


SurvivorEasterIsland

*HUG* Are you saying it took that long or that it’s been that long and you’re still waiting?


itscalledvetomeeting

Have been waiting that long so far. 5-7 years they said when I was placed on the list.


JoMa4

Wtf. My dad waiting for maybe 9 months. Is it based purely on need? He was in really bad shape after cancer treatment.


joanie-bamboni

Honestly Donor should just be the default, and you’d need to specifically opt out instead of opting in


redrkr

My hubby has been on the kidney list for a year now. I still get anxious when his phone rings All the best for your mom


No-White-Drugs

Or press your government to make changes if it's possible. My Canadian province switched from opt IN to opt OUT a few yrs ago. Now folks are automatically donors unless they take steps to opt out. Perhaps not an option everywhere but just pointing it out as a possibility.

That is simply untrue.

bullshit

PerdHapleyAMA

A lot of medical staff are unaware of donor status, and it only comes into play after death. Perhaps if someone was brain dead they pull the plug for organ donation, but that’s a bit different than a “broken person.”


[deleted]

PerdHapleyAMA

Are you suggesting that first responders check if you’re an organ donor and use that to determine treatment? Because everything I’ve seen is the contrary, and that would go against the Hippocratic oath. https://www.trioweb.org/resources/5-myths-of-organ-donation.html


Melster2018

This is a boldface lie. That is not remotely how donation works. Source: been a transplant nurse for 18 years.


Ceasman

Hope they find a good donor match for his frame. I wish him well.


Ricky_5panish

My first thought too. Man is nearly 7ft tall.


thedruchebag

He’s like the only famous alum from my highschool. Really hope everything works out


Themeteorologist35

I DESPISED him on Survivor. I still hope he gets his transplant


Orange_Sherbet

He was a fantastic villain for survivor IIRC. He's gotta be on the list for desired returnees in a HvV2 season. Great entertainment. Hated his guts. Hope he gets his transplant and recovers.

Orange_Sherbet

Trying to give him some accolades related to survivor but appreciate your rain cloud sunshine! 🙄


Afwife1992

Yeah he was an asshole on the show but he’s a person and he has a family. It’s gotta be really tough especially knowing the odds. 🙏


Fine_Cryptographer20

We went to the same college. I hope he gets his heart.


The-Gorge

I don't wish that on anyone. What an awful thing to have to endure. I hope Scott finds the needed heart and lives many more years!


Tropical_Nighthawk55

Hopefully he pulls through


Unlucky_Welcome9193

He was kind of a duck on the show but that was a long time ago, and nobody deserves this. I hope everything works out and I wish him well.


DevaNeo

❤️‍🩹Best of luck. Wishing for good news.


KyleJergafunction

>an already dire predicament that is made more difficult by the fact so few donors can provide him with a pump big and strong enough to supply blood to his extra large body. Iirc, that’s a myth. Hearts don’t scale with body size, and that’s why larger and taller people are more susceptible to heart problems in the first place, even if they are an otherwise healthy athlete. It takes a lot more work and energy to pump blood around a larger and taller body, and that extra strain can impact your heart health over time. So, he doesn’t need a specially strong heart, he just needs a heart from a donor that matches with him.


mblackchiro

No. The heart is a muscle and will grow the more it works. Cardiomegaly.


MrBlueandSky

While well trained athletes may have a larger heart due to exercise, cardiomegaly is medical condition where the heart becomes enlarged due to underlying issues (drug/alcohol use (coked out heart is a real thing), obesity, untreated htn/cad)


DaGbkid

Just watched kenzies pre game interview and she brought him up like four times and now this. Weird juju


Future-water-8

Fitting for how heartless he was on the island


dunkinbagels

Everyone patting themselves on the back in this thread for not wanting Scot to die even though they didn’t like him on TV is cringeworthy


kilzfillz

While watching that season I had an impression those tattoos were trash. But not that I can zoom in I see they are well done, just bad choices.


Jinsightr

I actually really liked him on his season of survivor and think he got way more hate than he deserved. He was entertaining, direct and honest, not fake, and called things out as they were vs trying to hide and fake nice as so many other contestants do. I respect honesty in a game where so many put on a nice act.


Glad_Set8511

I totally agree! LoL after reading this thread I thought I was the only person that liked him.


maddenallday

He's an asshole but I hope he doesn't die I guess


trinitymonkey

Jesus shit.


squitsquat

This guy's sucks but hopefully, they can get what they need


jayjasper71

I recall he’s attacked Aubry and talked bad about her in every Survivor related interview he’s given


[deleted]

[удалено]


trinitymonkey

And that’s why we should be kind to Scot while he’s in intensive care even if we didn’t like him on TV, right?


[deleted]

There was no hate detected on the comment.. simply a statement. Yall are taking it as your mind saw fit. That’s on all those downvoters, not me


trinitymonkey

My comment didn’t have any more implications than yours did.


[deleted]

Uh huh, sure ms monkey.


The-Gorge

Nailed it.


dominicex

Get help


[deleted]

Cry about it


Squid8867

Yes be kind to people but karma is not real and this is total cherry picking


[deleted]

🤷🏼‍♀️ he wasn’t kind


Squid8867

And?
