On ESPN, this morning (Sunday) they decided to suspend until a new announcement by Adrian Wojnarowski, the network's senior scoop and senior BBC correspondent. Islands. The reason: Wojnarowski allowed himself to offend Missouri State Senator Josh Howley in a repeating email in which two harsh, sharp words were written: "F You."

The political turmoil began as early as last week when the Republican Senatorial Republican asked to send a message to the NBC players, who will start playing bubble in Orlando at the end of this month. As is well known, players were given the permission to send social messages on the back of their game shirts for the rest of the season, so Hawley asked all the commentators and reporters in the best league in the world to allow players to express "patriotic" messages for the US military and government.

But perhaps who wanted to sharpen the message for Hong Kong's soldiers and protesters against China (Free Hong Kong), he unexpectedly received a surprising return email from Adrian Wojnarowski's address, with the words: "Fuck You."

Howley, who was quick to post the correspondence on Twitter, managed to provoke the anticipated storm and who has to apologize is, of course, Wojnarowski, who tweeted on Twitter: "I made a mistake I regret. I was disrespectful to the senator. Also apologizing to my ESPN friends, I have no doubt that my behavior does not reflect their opinions and thoughts. "

Either way, right now, the apology didn't help Adrian Wojnarowski, who was forced to go on vacation for free until a new announcement, all less than three weeks before the opening shot at Disney World.
