ESPN’s Jeff Passan responds to Shams Charania hiring with Wolf of Wall Street video

Jeff Passan Shams Charania ESPN Woj (Person)

ESPN has a new NBA insider in Shams Charania, who seemed like the obvious replacement for the retired Adrian Wojnarowski.

But there was a report that the network’s baseball columnist and reporter Jeff Passan was in the mix for Woj’s job. Turns out that Passan wasn’t the pick.

So, now what for Passan? He answered it with a couple of posts on X (formerly Twitter), first with the “I’M NOT LEAVING” clip from The Wolf of Wall Street (WARNING: it gets NSFW). Then, he kept it simple: “Baseball’s better anyway.”

That’s it. Baseball fans were very happy with that development:
