Costas stirred up a hornet's nest Sunday with a halftime commentary about Kansas City Chiefs player Jovan Belcher's murdering his girlfriend (and the mother of his child), followed by his own suicide. "If Jovan Belcher didn't possess a gun," Costas told a TV audience of more than 20 million, "he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today." (AP Photo/Tony Avelar, File)

FILE - In this Nov. 3, 2012 file photo, Army quarterback Trent Steelman (8) runs past Air Force linebacker Alex Means (9) for a touchdown during the first half of an NCAA college football game in West Point, N.Y. Steelman has a host of records at West Point but would trade them all for a victory on Saturday in the 113th game against archrival Navy. A win in the final game of Steelman’s Army career would give the Black Knights possession of the Commander In Chief’s Trophy, emblematic of supremacy among the three service academies. Army hasn’t won the coveted hardware since 1996. (AP Photo/Mike Groll, File)
