Everyday is another opportunity to become better versions of ourselves. If you're taking care of you family and putting others Before yourself you are a man
Wow. A man who has gone through, and continues to go through, his own trials and tribulations, reaches the pinnacle of his career, is honored with the ultimate award in his profession, selflessly does what Stu would've done. Unreal.
@@iigengar-2817 ,Bullshit! Your America, or your idea of it may be deluded with alternative facts, hate, and a complete lack of empathy. But most people believe selflessness, caring for your neighbor, and acts of kindness are 100% American values.
@@davepearson6945 America the land of the FREE. Is Basically Forcing people to take a Vaccine Otherwise won’t be allowed to work or Shop. Sounds like you need validation before you can be free, Not to mention this is only one of the few things. But Does that sound like Earnie Johnson? EJ is real and straight up. That’s not America Bud.
Great men like Ernie will never broadcast things like this. That's why people like us, who benefit from his example, need to do it for him. Ernie is the GOAT. And that's a fact.
Ernie is a loving family man, adopted 4 children along with his own, fought and beat cancer, very classy and humble yet funny. and such acts are not surprising by such individual. R.I.P Stuart Scott and all Cancer deceased humans.
“The only place this belongs in on the mantle at Stuart Scott’s house.” The best part is that when he said that, you could feel every single person in the audience saying “You’re damn right, Ernie.”
Ernie Johnson is pure class. What a way to salute a fellow sportscaster who had lost his battle with cancer. Stuart Scott was a very eloquent man, whose vocabulary was so broad and invigorating, everytime you heard him speak you felt richer for having listened to him.
I already loved Ernie, but seeing this now makes me love Ernie so much more because this was a class act and now he just gained so much respect from me
You don’t lose to cancer. You win by how you fight. Thank you Ernie, that you Stuart for literally being the reason I’m still here today and able to type these words. You were my inspiration when I was young and you’re my hero now. Thank you EJ
Ernie Johnson's character deserves to be emulated which is he biggest compliment you can pay anyone. He gives the impression he has everything because what he has is always enough, it's about who else he can lift up, shine a light on or guide in the right direction. In his current state of grieving, I'm sure that'll be remembered as those he's affected support his family.
I actually cannot believe that someone would thumb down this video. EJ is probably one of the most humble people ever. His selflessness is like none other. One day I wish I could meet Ernie in person and tell him how much of a wonderful man he is.
Bored With you he isn’t a good role model because he has cancer, he’s a good role model because he was able to use the fame you mentioned change many people’s lives
Ernie is one of the coolest and classiest dudes we have ever been blessed to know. There is not a bad bone in this man's body. He is the epitome of a respectful and funny human being. God bless him!
Wow Ernie Johnson is probably the most respectful, godly like man. Words that I can’t even describe this guy. I wish him and his family nothing but the best.
I miss Stuart more & more everyday. Especially since my tv is usually always on ESPN. Hard to enjoy basketball playoff season with #1) him not around for it, & #2) Craig Sager not around much because of his battle w/ cancer as well. RIP Stuart Scott. EJ is a class act for this.
Ernie is such an awesome guy!!!! He shows what a real class act is!!!!!!! Enough can't be said about him and I thought he was the best dad to his son!!!!!!! He is truly a gentleman!!!!
this guy is very professional at what he's doing on TNT. He always calm and the every word he uses are wisely chosen. never get bores watching those guys on TNT during halftime
Even without this, how can you not love EJ? To call him a "class act" does no justice to the mans character. The way he handled the last election results on Inside the NBA was a masterclass in diplomacy while still holding to your convictions. I hope we're lucky enough to have many more years of Ernie behind the desk; NBA basketball won't be the same without him.
What a gesture by Ernie Johnson. To honor the great Stuart Scott like that by having his daughters come up onstage and present them the award. Look up the definition of class act and Ernie's picture is right next to it.
Words cant describe how much i love and respect ernie. Such a great guy all around i never get upset about celebrity deaths but god forbid when he passes it will mess me up.
I remember there was a time after David Stern & Kobe died that Ernie was an emotional wreck. He’s a soft-hearted WARRIOR who beat cancer & I’ll always be a huge fan of his. Keep up the good fight, EJ! Much love ✌🏾💜 RIP Stu! Miss ya!
Love and miss you Stu..These moments exemplify GREAT character and integrity, its growth within humanity, TRUE mastery, masterfully personified...just be your best the best you can that's all..Stand tall and strong y'all🙌🙏💗✊
Ernie.... you make me laugh ... and cry. .you a really special guy... with a huge heart.. bless you . Frm toxteth. Liverpool uk... I'm a 47 ..mum of 2.... and I watch u shaquille .. Kenny n chuck. .. and... you really are brothers.. not just Co. .workers. .. love y@LL
Wow wow wow…I have watched Ernie Johnson for damn near 20 years on TNT. Have heard all the stories of his huge heart. But this is a class act in the highest degree. That’s a true man I hope to emulate day to day in my own life.
Those are classy individuals all the way around! Stuart was a lucky man to have two beautiful, intelligent and classy young girls like that! RIP Stuart Scott!
Ernie Johnson, Jr. is truly a King among the men around him! He continually shows us the correct path to choose by always taking the high road, and constantly doing the right thing, especially when there's not an audience of people around watching him!! Ernie and his wife made Stuart Scott's two daughters happy that night, if only for a little while, and just by making a small gesture of kindness to them and recognizing their Dad!! Forever RIP Stuart Scott!!
Ernie will continue to earn the praises of his peers for years and years to come. He knew what that night and award meant to those girls and let it be their night. That’s class.
Class act. I wish I could be half the man that Ernie Johnson is.
Dylan Olson You are Dylan, you are. All the best.
u r a class act
Everyday is another opportunity to become better versions of ourselves. If you're taking care of you family and putting others Before yourself you are a man
The be it! What’s stopping you?
You can be. Put others first and you will be your neighborhoods Ernie.
Not only one of the best in sports…..He’s one of the BEST Human Beings on this planet!!
ernie johnson was already a legend...but this just adds to it right here
Wow. A man who has gone through, and continues to go through, his own trials and tribulations, reaches the pinnacle of his career, is honored with the ultimate award in his profession, selflessly does what Stu would've done. Unreal.
Jake Johnson So true Jake. This is the kind of stuff that brings faith in humanity. Things done like this keeps a person well grounded.
Jake Johnson Indeed. This is the real America.

If that don't hit you right in the feels, nothing will. Ernie is a class act.
Steve H BY FAR THE BEST Sports Anchor EVER!!! Sportcenter will NEVER be the same. Thanks for all the wonderful years. May he R.I.P
You ain't never lied! Hits me to the core!
He is a real man.
He might be the best man I know. I have never heard anyone, at any time, say anything anywhere near bad about Ernie. Just such a great man
Reminds me when Ving rhames gave his Oscar to Jack lemon
Didn't know Ernie did this. I always respected Ernie Johnson, but this just put my respect level for this man thru the roof. Class act.
Great men like Ernie will never broadcast things like this. That's why people like us, who benefit from his example, need to do it for him. Ernie is the GOAT. And that's a fact.
He's the best. He really is
RIP Stuart Scott...Class Act by Ernie Johnson!

his 4 adopted kids is more amazing than shaqs four rings.
@@mjojni123 who asked for this comment
@@thursdaythe20th999 pretty hard comment tho ngl
WATCHING THIS AGAIN AFTER HIS SON HAS PASSED. ERNIE JOHNSON IS A FANTASTIC PERSON.
Ernie Johnson is class personified. Rest in peace Stuart Scott.
“The only place this belongs in on the mantle at Stuart Scott’s house.”
The best part is that when he said that, you could feel every single person in the audience saying “You’re damn right, Ernie.”
You can tell how good of a person Stuart Scott was with how polite and articulate his daughters are.
Exactly
Yes sir
Ernie Johnson is pure class. What a way to salute a fellow sportscaster who had lost his battle with cancer. Stuart Scott was a very eloquent man, whose vocabulary was so broad and invigorating, everytime you heard him speak you felt richer for having listened to him.
RIP Michael Johnson and condolences to the Johnson family, Ernie is awesome. Stuart was a great guy and sportscaster.
🕊🕊
Wow, that was touching. Class act by Ernie Johnson ... RIP Stuart Scott
the definition of the word class changed that night to "see Ernie Johnson"
A man who has brought genuine laughter and tears to my eyes. I don’t know him personally but I love him sincerely.
I already loved Ernie, but seeing this now makes me love Ernie so much more because this was a class act and now he just gained so much respect from me
You don’t lose to cancer. You win by how you fight. Thank you Ernie, that you Stuart for literally being the reason I’m still here today and able to type these words. You were my inspiration when I was young and you’re my hero now. Thank you EJ
If you die, the cancer dies too, so really it's a draw.
@@heatherperleberg7816 I see you Norm 😂
Nothing but CLASS! What a guy to give the award (after winning in) to someone who deserved it equally as much. What a great guy.
That was one of the most selfless acts I have ever seen. Ernie is a class act, a rare breed in today's day and age.
Extremely rare especially during today’s time. I wish we had a lot more people like this man in this world.

@@Xiaolongbaokid16 you have NEVER seen Rest in Piece on anybody’s head stone 🤦🏿♂️
4 years later and I still get tears in my eyes watching this
Same here, same here 🥹
Ernie is just one of those people who the more you hear about him, the more you like him.
And they say there are no role models in sports. EJ proved that wrong.
Why is he any different than millions of people dying of cancer? Oh that’s right. He’s on tv so that makes them special...
Bored With you he isn’t a good role model because he has cancer, he’s a good role model because he was able to use the fame you mentioned change many people’s lives
Luca Z who’s lives did he change???? Name them all?
Bored With you the four children he adopted
Richard R Smith I adopted 10 dogs.. I’m a saint too...
Ernie is one of the coolest and classiest dudes we have ever been blessed to know. There is not a bad bone in this man's body. He is the epitome of a respectful and funny human being. God bless him!
Wow Ernie Johnson is probably the most respectful, godly like man. Words that I can’t even describe this guy. I wish him and his family nothing but the best.
Can't ever get enough of this.
Just another class act move by Ernie. The upmost respect for the man.
Extremely classy move Mr. Johnson. RIP Stuart Scott, you did your work well, let us take over for you, it will be in good hands
Ernie Johnson? YOU ARE THE MAN!!! World Class Act!!!
The world needs more genuinely good people. Well done, EJ.
I miss Stuart more & more everyday. Especially since my tv is usually always on ESPN. Hard to enjoy basketball playoff season with #1) him not around for it, & #2) Craig Sager not around much because of his battle w/ cancer as well. RIP Stuart Scott. EJ is a class act for this.
Jasmine M. Another side of the pillow

Ernie just got me with tears in my eyes, you know Stuart was smiling down on them and thanking EJ.
R.I.P. Stuart Scott
Erie has a pure heart & soul... Very very humble human being...
God bless Ernie Johnson for being a great human being!
Ernie Johnson is beyond a class act and you can tell that his love for Stuart is so genuine. Awesome gesture on his part.
Be an Ernie Johnson everyone. Be a soul so carefree, loving, thoughtful and beautiful that you inspire the world ahead and behind you
Just like Ving Rhaymes giving his award to Jack Lemmon. Nothing but respect and true class
Ernie is a man of class, dignity and humility. I pray you hear these words one day Ernie, "Well done good & faithful servant."
He will
He most certainly will..such a great example of the truth that the best, most meaningful lives are led when it's about others...
this guy is very professional at what he's doing on TNT. He always calm and the every word he uses are wisely chosen. never get bores watching those guys on TNT during halftime
Ernie Johnson Man, Myth, Amazing human being which makes him a legend❤
Damn. I’m binging EJ stuff cause of Michael and I didn’t know he did this. The Godfather the realest to do it.
Same. What a guy
Even without this, how can you not love EJ? To call him a "class act" does no justice to the mans character. The way he handled the last election results on Inside the NBA was a masterclass in diplomacy while still holding to your convictions. I hope we're lucky enough to have many more years of Ernie behind the desk; NBA basketball won't be the same without him.
Absolutely a class act is Ernie Johnson. Definitely as cool as the other side of the pillow. R.I.P. Stu. #GoneTooSoon #CancerSucks
That's cool. You see Mama Scott clapping, crying, and directing the girls at the same time! Moms ROCK!!!
What a gesture by Ernie Johnson. To honor the great Stuart Scott like that by having his daughters come up onstage and present them the award. Look up the definition of class act and Ernie's picture is right next to it.
