Jay Z has a verse on the latest DJ Khaled track, which may or may not include a diss aimed at Drake (in response to that whole fondue plate thing): "Haters wanna ball, let me tighten up my drawstring / Wrong sport, boy, you know you soft as a lacrosse team." But instead of drawing Drake's ire, Jay's line has gotten the bros who run Major League Lacrosse all riled up.
Through an official statement released to MTV.com, MLL had this to say about Jay Z disparaging the great game of lacrosse:
"Lacrosse is often called the fastest sport on two feet. Players are on the field dodging and shooting balls at over 100 miles per hour," a MLL spokesperson told MTV News in a written statement issued on Tuesday (April 29).
"With that said we don't think Jay-Z knows what he's talking about when he calls Lacrosse 'soft' I can guarantee you it is anything but a 'soft' sport," the statement continued.
To top it all off, MLL issues a challenge to the battle-tested MC. "Mr. Carter would not last one minute on a lacrosse field during a match and he is more than welcome to come to any of our games and try," the statement read in closing.
OK, lax bros, we get it. Your sport is super tough and cool. We are all taking this spirited defense to heart while making sure that you cannot see our dismissive wanking.
