    EJ is the teacher that laughs with you when it's appropriate, but knows when to corral you and the buds when you get too loose. Kenny, one of the smart kids in class that gets stuff wrong all the time, but gets enough right it gets glazed over, perfect segue to the Chuckster, donut connoisseur and crazy story extraordinaire, Shaq the living embodiment of a Nascar stock car with the endorsements to match, funny larger than life, but an occasionally serious guy. The inside the nba family are the perfect compilation gold. whenever I can't sleep cuz life is stressful I just watch a funny moments comp and laugh till my chest begins to hurt. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say Inside the Nba did for basketball what Top Gear did for Automobile related programming admittedly in a tamer fashion than Top Gear. I love you guys and as much as I hope this show never ends if it does I'm gonna be grateful for the memories

    Ernie Johnson is one of the greatest human beings on Earth. I implore everyone to watch this man's biography (I believe it was first televised on A and E) Hopefully...it's still on youtube...I know it used to be.
    What EJ has done throughout his life OUTSIDE of his amazing work on Inside the NBA? It's on Mother Theresa levels. He's one of the most selfless, inspiring, amazing men I've ever had the pleasure to learn more about.
    Watching his biography? Not only made me cry...it restored my waining faith in humanity.
