Speaker I admire

After a lot of thought I decided that the speaker that I admire is ESPN sports analysist Stuart Scott. He brings a lot of energy and good humor everytime he is on the air. When Stuart Scott is speaking I think his power to persuade comes from a mixture of ethos and pathos. His power to persuade shows the use of ethos by his presence alone. He seems like a normal guy and that makes him easier to watch because some others sports analysists seem like jerks. He uses pathos with the sentences he puts together. When talking about highlights instead of just saying Touchdown or Homerun he uses a lot emotion and paralanguage in his analysist to make the event more exciting. I never knew watching highlights could be so entertaining until Stuart Scott changed the way we all watch highlights. I am not saying he is the first great sportscaster but I feel he started a trend where you put emotion into highlights and it has made all other sports analysists do it no matter what sport they are talking about. When it comes to my persuasion ability I use logos. I am very thorough and like to know everything before I attempt to talk about anything. I am always trying to lay out all the facts and then attempt to prove my point. So i would say that my qualities fit into those of Aristotles' classification scheme.
