Bob Costas Continues to Bury Himself Over Anti-Gun Comments

The Belcher murder-suicide is a completely inappropriate case to build an anti-gun argument on. A professional football player doesn't need a gun to murder a woman. As OJ demonstrated, a knife suffices; or, as the lacrosse player from UVA demonstated, Belcher could have simply slammed his girlfriend into the wall. The suicide part is equally ridiculous. He could have jumped from the top of the stadium, hung himself, slit his wrist or used any number of tried and true methods. The sermon about guns is dopey.

Sorry Mud, the statement that: " if it weren't for guns Belcher and his girlfriend would still be alive" completely belies you argument that Belcher could have slammed her against the wall and then jumped from the top of the stadium. And OJ, incidentally, killed those two with a gun that had the barrel ground down to knife sharpness.

When you're in a hole, stop digging. Last night NBC sportscaster Bob Costas made an appearance on the O'Reilly Fact in an effort to clear up any "misunderstanding" about what he said during his anti-gun monologue on Sunday night football in reaction to NFL player Jovan Belcher killing the mother of his child. Yesterday, Costas issued a non-apology for his comments that was full of excuses and one that blamed viewers for misinterpreting what he really meant and said.

"I don't back up on anything I said."
