A direct quote from Bob Costas tonight on Sunday Night Football.
In the coming days, Belcher’s actions will be analyzed through the lens of concussions and head injuries. Who knows? Maybe brain damage triggered his violent overreaction to a fight with his girlfriend. What I believe is, if he didn’t possess/own a gun, he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today.
Stick to announcing the Olympics Bob, this might just get you outed from SNF. There are already over 696 people on the "Fire Bob Costas" page, and I bet it grows. They fired Hank Jr from MNF for puking his views, I see no difference here.
Edited the snf to mnf sorry, I goofed.

For me it is a Chiefs thing, and more so a domestic violence thing not a gun issue and surely not a soap box on national tv thing. There is a time and place for that.....................SNF isn't it.
I realize Costas has a 1st Amend right to say whatever he wants but fire in a movie..........hijack in an airport.................just because he can doesn't mean he should.

What alleged racial hatred did he spew forth?
Was it worse than Cosell?
Was it worse than Jimmy the Greek?
The whole Donovan McNabb thing.. He deserved to get fired because he is a blowhard.. But you are right, it was no worse than Cosell and Jimmy the Greek.. just a different time, still did not make it right though..
But I do agree with Hairball, Costas needs to shut the hell up, If I wanted to watch politics I would turn on Fox or CNN news.. I watch SNF for football.. not to hear some dickhead talk about gun control or to hear him blame society for the reason a murdering piece of garbage offed his girl and himself.
