This throw is neglected at worst, heckled at best. I suspect this attitude has something to do with it having a silly name. It's also one of those words that look a lot sillier when you type them- like muff, or episcopal.
Regardless, here are some good reasons why the scoober is (not 'always', just 'a lot more than people give it credit for') a good option.
It is, by virtue of its throwing action, a quick release throw on the backhand side. This is useful - a quick release backhand is a much more difficult throw which not many people have consistently.
For an upside down throw, a scoober has a pretty gentle flight pattern, even in wind. Hammers are thrown with a lot of downward motion, leaving them especially vulnerable to blading or buffeting. Scoobers are thrown more at a 45° angle, are a little inclined to float up, but still are more stable.
The crowd loves the scoober.
In man offense, as a breakmark throw, the scoober can hit the deadzone directly behind the marker. No other throw can do this without first getting the mark out of position.
