Joe Morgan vs. Harry Potter

In 2003, Michael Lewis wrote a fantastic book called Moneyball, in which he wrote about the success of the "small market" Oakland A's, and their GM Billy Beane. This was met with derision in many parts of the baseball establishment, as new ideas are always a threat to old. This was particularly evident in an interview with Joe Morgan, Hall-of-Fame baseball player and ESPN's "why does he still have a job, because he doesn't know he doesn't know what he's talking about" baseball announcer. Morgan spouted off about how bad and incorrect the book was, and what a mistake it was for Billy Beane to write it, despite never having read it.

For anyone that wasn't aware of that situation, it's the background for this: Chris Lynch asking Joe Morgan about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. LOL funny - brilliant...
