Even the resident vegetarian thinks this is a stupid idea
Read carefully, everyone: I'm denouncing a chance to expand and popularize vegetarian ideals. Why?
Because they also happen to be PETA's ideals. And while I'm ardent in my beliefs, I also think that PETA stands for a lot of things that I don't happen to believe in: violence and the exploitation of women, to name just a few (see here, here, here or here for examples of said violence and exploitation). Which is why I cringed when I read that the organization is trying to convince the President of the Washington Nationals baseball team to temporarily name their new stadium "GoVeg.com Field' (for free, no less).
Kasten's probably thinking, I already agreed to sell veggie dogs...what more do these crazy people want? And it's true: in addition to the dogs, the stadium will also sell veggie chili, as well as a gluten and casein-free pretzel. And if you're curious about what PETA thinks constitutes a decent, veggie-friendly stadium, check out its Top 10 Vegetarian-Friendly Ballpark list.
But enough of my ranting...what do you think? Should Katsen agree to temporarily sign over the naming rights to - gulp - PETA?
