Ernie Johnson is a class act. At last night’s Sports Emmys, Johnson was once again honored as the Best Studio Host on television. After receiving the award, he won the night by giving the award to Stuart Scott’s two daughters. It was truly a remarkable gesture and appreciation for Johnson’s act of kindness flowed from every corner of the sports media world.
Already knew that Ernie Johnson is a wonderful guy, but giving his Emmy to Stuart Scott's daughters takes a special brand of humanity…

Johnson showed last night that his stellar accomplishments in front of the camera are surpassed by what he does from out behind the studio desk.
