Ernie has got to be one of those people no one ever has a bad word to say about. I feel for you and your family on this one EJ. Much love and condolences
Well I will he sacrifice his son at age 33 just how Scottie Pippen sacrifice his son at age 33. Scottie announced it on instagram April 19 2021 the anniversary of The Last Dance and wore 33 his whole career. Guess that a cocedient just how Kobe die right after Lebron pass him in points( against Kobe Hometown Team) then Lebron wins the championship on Father Daughter Day.(In a game he played exactly 41 mins 13 seconds in game 6).They made sure to put Ernie Johnson holding up the devil horns as the thumbnail. Maybe one day yall will open your eyes.
This world really do need more people like Ernie Johnson maybe people would need drugs or be upset or find themselves depressed if you had people like him to talk to
@@freethinker3039 1. Your English is horrible. 2. "Sacrifice" and "devil horns" you're downplaying fatal diseases to fit a conspiracy that not only is a reach but a blasphemous one at that, I hope you know those "devil horns" are the symbol for love in ASL.... to try to discredit a man and borderline make fun of his son's death to spread your idiotic ideals and religious beliefs Is shameful, and disgraceful, comments like these are the reason not everyone deserves to say their opinion.
That’s creative, but, “For God so loved the world that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.” -John 3:16 The goal IS to live forever
Ernie Johnson is what comes to mind when I think of the word character. Character is who you are when nobody’s around, and I know for a fact Ernie is a good man 24/7.
Beautifully spoken words of wisdom and compassion. Ernie Johnson you are a special man. Sorry for your loss. May you and your family be forever blessed.
As someone who is adopted, and feels incredible love from my parents, Ernie... I love you. My thoughts and prayers with you and your family. Loved you for as long as I have watched you, and always will.
That speech was heartfelt. Ernie is someone we all should look up to. Michael’s story is very inspiring, and I know he’s resting in paradise right now.
The loss must be so hard but they must be so relieved his sufferings over, what an impact this young man made. EJ helped shaped another great MJ, rest easy, love you 2🤟
Thoughts and prayers from my family to yours Mr. Johnson, we love you. may God be with you in these difficult times you are an amazing human being.. may God bless you..we love you too!
Rest in peace Michael. Ernie was lucky to have shared so much time for you. In your memory he's created something that will outlive himself in your memory. Ernie is one of the most thoughtful, caring, and downright amazing people to have ever been involved with sports, he'll be what I miss most about Inside the NBA concluding this year. RIP Michael.
always loved ej but having heard the story of his son some years ago, it gave me a newfound love and respect for the man. can’t imagine the pain he’s going through right now, my sincere condolences go out to the johnson family, they should hopefully find peace and comfort knowing they gave michael the best life imaginable.....
How anyone, ANYONE thumbs down on this is beyond me. I only hope I can remember someone this kind and generous exists when I start slipping into being a less-than-ideal person, and just be better.
This speech helped me find value in myself again life has been wild I lost my dad during the pandemic, my best friend commuted suicide, I spiraled down a path of hatred and bitterness and my wife left she took my soon I was in a hole , lost and I saw you lost your baby boy and how you took the loss and instead of letting it shut you down, you let your son live on through your stories, through the love and value you see in each person , and I also found that you know my dad and Dominick May be gone physically but they live on forever if I never give up I stay smiling , keep their names and stories alive , my son gets to see me become a better man and I tell you it’s not easy and I’m still on this path but now I do know I have value and that we all do , and there can’t be no such thing as giving up because I have value and I can’t waste it on bitterness but instead of love
Ernie is the epitome of strength and grace under some of the worst circumstances. RIP Michael, your pops clearly loved you with his entire heart. Prayers up for Ernie and Cheryl. We love you.
Rest in peace Michael you will be missed i hope ernie and his family are ok during this difficult time. Biggest heart in the world and hes such a gentle man. A role model for all men and boys and girls and women we should all aspire to be as admirable and honest. Love you ernie youve made life easier the last few years. You have such value to the universe
I'm media communications major trying to get into the sports media field. Erie will always be the man I look up to. Such a great man and hopefully one day I'll get to meet him
God bless you and your family great man great people great son, rip Michael and keep being strong and loving people the world needs more people like EJ
Huge respect to EJ and Cheryl. Wish them all the strenght they need right now. Just know that god called one of his angels back to heaven. Rest in peace Michael Johnson 🤟
Michael had such a good and loving home and I hope Ernie takes solace in that. Michael cared about others and was cared about, that’s the best thing we can have in this world. RIP
Wow. I'm overcome. You and your wife are great humans. Anyone thats loved a human or animal that was "supposedly" less than whole understands the commitment and the love required and recieved. Well done you two.
Rest easy Michael and I know that your still CRITIQUING your Dad after every show and you are SPOT ON Ernie about Coach Saban when he ask you, you say what time! Oh and I have to say that I'm not a Bama Fan but I do respect Coach Saban!
Today I learned that Ernie Johnson and his family went out of their way to go to Romania and adopt an orphan with a disability is so inspiring and brings a tear to my eye, and just shows how good Ernie is. Rest In Peace Michael
