Logan Morrison was just chillin’ at Nordstrom today when he encountered something he was not pleased with:

Hey @Nordstrom nothing makes me want to spend $$ like seeing women breastfeeding in your store... img.ly/lgbC

Those damn moms,providing essential nourishment for their children. Just appalling, really. The worst kind of people.Because he’s awesome, Jay Jaffe called Morrison out for being boorish and retrograde about public breastfeeding. Which led to this response:

Jay Jaffe? Another blogger who has never played baseball w a big mouth. Shocker! RT @jay_jaffe shut up and hit .240 without power LoMo

So apparently you gotta play in the bigs before you can all a guy out for being a jackwagon on the internet. Who knew?

Look, baseball players: I’ll make it easy for you. That “you’ve never played the game” thing may have validity to it when it’s in response to a writer saying stuff about how to play baseball.

Your exalted status as professional athletes does not provide you any claim to the high ground, however, when you’re out in the world, commenting ignorantly about everyday human events. In that arena we are all equal.
