The downfall of the Colts franchise continues.
Sorry to see him go.

I've always had a ton of respect for him and is one of the reason why I hate Bellacheat so much...there was a game where he gave the cold shoulder to Dungy after it was over...Dungy is probably my favorite coach that didn't coach the Phins.
Maine was at that game. It was the 2006 AFC Championship game if I'm not mistaken. Bellicheat was just being the sore losing whiny little bitch that he is. |

I did cover that game. It was a great game and one of the last road trips that I really enjoyed.
Tony Dungy has to be one of my favorite people in sports ever. I loved his book, I think even people that don't care all that much about Christian faith would love it as well. Must read.
And, by the way, Bill Belichick gets an undeserved reputation. I've talked to a lot of people over the years, be it assistant coaches off the record or guys like Peter King in a "let's get a beer" way. The general consenses is that Bill Belichick is widely respected around the league and generally liked as well. People have disagreements, it doesn't matter who you are. Jeff Fisher is called out a lot by his peers as co-Chair of the NFL competition committee. And, yet, he is still one of the most popular coaches among his peers in the league.
I don't want to completely derail this Dungy thread, but I've held my tongue long enough on the Belichick thing. I don't like the guy due to the way he's treated me (like a peon...and, let's face it, I was) on a professional level. But in the circle of the NFL his players love him and his peers like him. And, on a personal level, he was always very nice to talk to. I'll never forget when I introduced myself and shook his hand, he remembered my father from his coaching days. He's a nice guy. Let it go, don't let the winning cloud your mind with jealousy.

Pretty sick what Dungy did in Tampa too. They had had 14 or 15 losing seasons in a row before he got there and then made the playoffs 4 out of 6 years before being replaced by an idiot owner. He has made the playoffs 10 years in a row.
