Agreed. I'll go so far as to suggest that if Costas continues to hold halftime
interviews where they don't account for satellite delay, he might as well go.
To a certain extent, the broadcast could lose 1-2 of the former NFL

There is something of a revolving door operating between coaching and
television broadcasting, particularly in basketball and football.
Accomplished coaches who get fired or quit take a couple of years off,
