https://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/spurs/article/Popovich-sports-Beto-O-Rourke-cap-calls-Cruz-13360930.phpSAN ANTONIO - One day after he wore a cap emblazoned with "Beto" to practice, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich issued an impassioned plea Saturday for voters to side with Democratic Rep. Beto O'Rourke over Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in the race for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas in Tuesday's midterm election.
Calling O'Rourke a "special guy," Popovich painted the El Paso native as a unifier who would help return civility to American politics.
