ESPN’s star NBA reporter Adrian Wojnarowski fired off a private email to Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri earlier today, letting him know exactly what Woj thought of a recent letter Hawley sent to the NBA about political messages on the backs of jerseys.
It was curt, succinct, and to the point.
Of course, Hawley used the private email to score political points in our own going culture war, releasing it with a tweet that pointed to just how scandalized he was at such language being used. To top it off, Hawley snitched by tagging ESPN and Outkick the Coverage.
It’s clear Hawley wanted this to become a thing, and congrats to him, because it has! But, if Twitter is anything to go by, the court of public opinion is certainly not in his favor.
Wojnarowski has apologized for his two word response but already “nah Woj” is trending on Twitter as the public comes to his defense.
Here are some of the best public reactions.
Woj, just say “Bless your heart.” It means the same thing. https://t.co/UvnWniBScr

Anyway, you get the point. I would have included a lot more that were super funny, but all had liberal use of the f-bomb and this is a family site!
As of now, even though Woj apologized, still looks he came out in the Win column.
