Tony Dungy. 10 years, 10 playoff appearences, and 1 super bowl. An MVP Quarterback(twice), and the love of a nation. Tony Dungy did it the right way. He changed the football world by being the first African-American Coach to win a super bowl.
He started his NFL coaching career as an assistant coach of the Steelers in 1981. From popularizing the "Tampa 2" defense, to rebuilding the Tampa franchise itself, and Bringing the Colts to the top of the league, and reaching the pinnacle in 2007 vs. the Bears, Tony Dungy has made the football world a better place. He is the first Coach to beat every one of the 32 NFL teams.
Tony Dungy brought more than talent to the game of football. He brought character, and along with that, pride and the will to win. Dungy believed that their was more to sports than meets the eye, and he proved it.
We will always miss Tony Dungy, and what he did for the game of football.
