Getting your player ready...
By now, you have probably heard about and/or seen the video of Manu Ginobili swatting a bat out of the air at a recent San Antonio Spurs game, knocking it to the ground and carrying it off the court. So has PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), which chided Ginobili by posting the following on its website: “Here’s our take on it: To bludgeon a 4-ounce animal to death, it takes either a small man or a totally unthinking one with no respect or consideration for lives humbler than his own. This is a time when athletes in particular need to be on their best behavior around any animal and show that they have brains and a heart, not just reactionary brawn.”
