First Black Coach to Win Super Bowl Retires

January 13th, 2009

Tony Dungy

 Tony Dungy, the first African-American head coach to win the Super Bowl, walked away from pro football Monday, saying he was looking forward to what life has in store away from the NFL. “I’ve been tremendously blessed to play three years in the NFL and coach for 28, and those 31 years have been fantastic,” said the 53-year-old commander of the Indianapolis Colts. “… Don’t shed any tears for me. I’ve got to live a dream that most people don’t get to live. What phase two is, we’ll see…. I have a real peace about it that this is the right time.”  Read more about Dungy here.

Tony Dungy is a human being we all should stive to be like, from his demeanor, his intellect, his humbleness the man is well rounded.
They say that good guys finish last well that not true because tony
is a winner and a natural born leader who never seems to raise his voice.
I’m glad to see Tony retire ,he seems like he need to get away from football
for a awhile or as long as he choose too…….

BET, I have had alot of respect for this website up until this point. To degrade a black man who has achieved a historic accomplishment that Tony Dungy has and all you young people can do is make a mockery of it instead of trying to find your historic moment makes this website an embarassment. Please remove all of those degrading comments please, or maybe you really don’t care in what light people see BET, or maybe BET is everything I’ve been hearinglately. If so I can no longer be a patron of BET in any shape form or fahsion.

I’m not a football fan and I have the lowest regards for the overpaid professional athletes. A notable exception is Tony Dungy. He is a man of high moral calibre, a true gentleman and (I’m happy to say) an American success. I wish him all the best.



Felica Said on

Ok people when we all stop coming to BET maybe they’ll see tht we r not playing with them. As far as Mr. Dungy I wish u best. Weather he retired or got fired who cares. He was still the first Black man to win the superbowl. To the three ignorant fools maybe u shld stop being so stupid nd say something intellgent. I guess u were negelected as kids nd u have to find ways to up lift urseleves by putting everyone down. U will grow old nd alone nd with something u keep messing with people. U dig?
