Dave Zirin: Bob Costas is both brave and correct
"My view, and I cannot say this forcefully enough, is that whatever problems people may have with the content of what Bob Costas said, the veteran broadcaster seized the moment and was a profile in courage. Costas did the unthinkable: he took a stand against racism on national television. He also openly – as he did a year ago by addressing gun culture after the horrific murder suicide perpetrated by Chiefs’ player Jovan Belcher against Kasandra Perkins – willingly courted the ire of disturbingly violent right wing sports fans and their droogs in the conservative blogosphere."
