PETA Urges MLB to Stop Using the Term ‘Bullpen’ Due to Insensitivity to Cows

Dylan Gwinn 28 Oct 2021

The next time an MLB manager makes a moove to the bullpen, he will anger a large group of PETA activists who think the term bullpen is insensitive to cows.

In a statement issued Thursday by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), the animal rights organization made it clear they find the term “bullpen” to be mocking towards the “misery of sensitive animals.”

Instead, PETA would like MLB to begin referring to the bullpen as the “arm barn.”

That's insensitive to all other limbs, and to anyone who doesn't possess all limbs. Just call it "the place where baseball players commonly referred to as pitchers toss a baseball long enough to warm up their muscles."

Next the word police will want to ban "Dugout" because it is offensive to Indians and their early canoes.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Any truth to the rumor that PETA will award Tony Fauci their "animal killer of the year" award?
