You Cannot Stop Spirit, You Can Only Hope To Contain Him

All those of us at OSG HQ can say is that the damn bird cost the Atlanta Hawks game 2 in their series against the Miami Heat. If you believe in such things... We don't... we just wanted to see if you were paying attention... Normally, "Spirit" is a hawk mascot that flies to his handler before the games start at Philips Arena. This time, however, before Game 2 he refused.You'll see some of his shenanigans before he was bribed by his hander to return to ground level. The shenanigans in question lasted for the first FOUR MINUTES of the game. it takes up the first 25 seconds or so before the actual game had highlights worthy of being shown.It got so bad the Heat players wouldn't continue until Spirit was commandeered.Dwyane Wade was unconscious and Brother Phil predicted the margin of victory.The series is tied at a game a piece as they head to Miami to play Game 3 in the series sometime in mid-July.
