Not long after the Giants won the Super Bowl in 1987, several Giants helped to make an anti-abortion film with the help of the American Life League. It featured Bavaro, Phil McConkey and a few others I've forgotten.
Sports Illustrated wrote a commentary critical of the effort and claiming athletes should not be out in public discussing religious and political issues, particularly a bunch of men commenting on a "woman's issue". It was obviously both liberally biased and hypocritical.
Seems Sports Illustrated was having a problem dealing with end zone prayers around the same time.
