NBC has to pay well over a billion dollars a year for the rights to broadcast Sunday night and Thursday night games.

My advice would be to drink heavily, Bob.

What is their end game?

What are they doing off the field?

Don’t just talk the talk, walk the walk.

I believe he has two Bronze Stars, one of them with a "V" for valor (combat).

I ask that same question about Douglas Schoen a few times a year. He reminds me of how the majority of democrats used to be; reasonable, logical and yes, even tolerant.

Costas, Goodell, the owners, and the AH players who support this crap are whistling past the cemetery. The networks with their TV coverage package AD revenues are scared S..tl..s over the potential destruction of their revenue stream. They can package it anyway they want to, the end result is they support the BLM ridicules concepts and their allies like the Anfata group. At the end of the day, count the support of these groups against the mores of a great majority of the public and see who is going to win on this. When the public says enough and withdraws any public support for this anti US, anti White, anti normal values group, the stadiums will look like the Roman Colosseum in ten years.

Costas was the loudest loudmouth about the Redskins a few years back. If there's a reason the ignorant dwarf keeps his job, it probably has something to do with higher-ups who also shouldn't be keeping theirs.

Hey Bob, was attendance up or down Sunday night?

Down 10% right?

Nobody agrees with you except racist communists hell bent on destroying America.

How about “boycott the NFL” AND their sponsors.
That is the normal game of the LEFT and the tactic has a devastating result on the target.
The NFL idiots surely have the “right of free speech” but I demand my “constitutional right to zip my wallet.”
So do you!!

Yes but I believe this was very calculated to fire up his supporters while he is dealing on DACA and Barkycare with Schumer and Pelosi. Could be a version of Barky’s Look Squirrels con game to take people’ attention from what is happening. Anyone who thinks Pres. Trump is not bright doesn’t have a clue but anyone who thinks he is at heart a FR conservative could be in for a surprise.

It would be a miracle if any of the players actually got involved in making their country a better place. By and large, these are overgrown children who have been treated like gods from early age, and never developed the mindset that there is something to honor beyond themselves. The “protests” are a way of convincing themselves that they are actually doing an affirmative act for country or race, when in fact, their lives are about going to the swell home after playing games and tallying their personal stats and counting their money. That they think their kneeling posture is important shows how easily they can delude themselves. Mental and moral midgets.

Just strange.

You couldn’t get me to remain in a party like that for more than an hour after registration offices opened on the next business day.

I know there are people out there like that though.

Thanks for the mention.

As I just mentioned to Manc, I couldn’t stand to be in a party like that. One hour after the next business day for registering, I’d have the paperwork signed and delivered.

I have yet to meet a person who has any interest in anything Bob Costas says, and yet he keeps talking.

You can support breast cancer month, and other favorite groups, but NOT the United States of America? OKAY...got it. (Too bad you do NOT get it, Costas.)

What a shocker. Gleaming Chestnut Stallion Hair Dye Bob gets lefty on air?! Who knew he was a lefty filled with self importance? I can’t get over this. It’s like when Shep Smith came out as gay. I needed my smelling salts.

Costas has always been a big pile of dung.

I am happy the sports world is being exposed. Middle finger to all of them.
