Bryan Scott - Personal

Personal

Scott is an accomplished musician. He sings and plays the piano, drums and saxophone. He participated in the ABC Monday Night Football's musical competition called "Monday Night at the Mic" in 2003 paired with Grammy Award winning artist Michelle Branch. The duo lost to Doug Flutie and Barenaked Ladies in the finals after competing against a host of other NFL players and recording artists in a round-robin competition. Bryan also had a major role in the feature film White Men Can't Rap, where he played the drummer Tater in band Cocoa Bean Mogul.

Scott sang a song he wrote at the funeral service for Kevin Dare, the Penn State pole vaulter who died while competing at the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Championships in February 2002.

He created the non-profit foundation, Pick Your Passion Foundation for the Arts, to encourage youth participation in music, visual and performing arts in underserved communities.

His cousin, Ryan Stewart, is a former defensive back with the Detroit Lions (1996–99) and current radio personality in Atlanta, Georgia.

He is the inspiration for the Twitter hashtag #allhedoesismakeplays, for his knack of making key plays during his playing time for the Buffalo Bills.

Famous quotes containing the word personal:

    No Vice or Wickedness, which People fall into from Indulgence to Desires which are natural to all, ought to place them below the Compassion of the virtuous Part of the World; which indeed often makes me a little apt to suspect the Sincerity of their Virtue, who are too warmly provoked at other Peoples personal Sins.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)

    We should seek by all means in our power to avoid war, by analysing possible causes, by trying to remove them, by discussion in a spirit of collaboration and good will. I cannot believe that such a programme would be rejected by the people of this country, even if it does mean the establishment of personal contact with the dictators.
    Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)

    Art is a concrete and personal and rather childish thing after all—no matter what people do to graft it into science and make it sociological and psychological; it is no good at all unless it is let alone to be itself—a game of make-believe, or re-production, very exciting and delightful to people who have an ear for it or an eye for it.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
