Check out this article in the WSJ

I found this part motivating:

"The NFC is a harder call for Mr. Dungy. There are new field generals at Chicago and Minnesota (in Jay Cutler and Brett Favre), but you never know whether a new quarterback will find his groove. Another unanswered quarterback question: Will Tony Romo take the next step and become a dominant player for Dallas? His dark horse pick is Green Bay. The Packers stayed with the guy [quarterback Aaron Rodgers] who has replaced Favre and has quietly gotten better. His team has a lot of confidence in him. He is the one QB in that division who has chemistry and timing with his receivers. They can be the ones nobody is talking about but could kind of sneak up on people.

Dungy is from my hometown (Jackson, MI).

He was a senoir (Parkside) when I was a freshman (Lumen Christi). He was much better at basketball than football. I was shocked when he went ot Minnesota for football......

It looks like Dungy made the right choice but I think he will be remembered most for his role as an NFL coach.

I am interested to see how he fairs in the Sunday night games and we all get the first look.

I think the key contribution to a commentator is when they can point out nuances on the field that are missed by most of the spectators. Say what you want about Madden but I found he could contribute in this way. But he was also saying comments like "To win the game you need to make sure you score more points than your opponent"

Judging by all the love we're getting, I'm finding it exceedingly difficult to think that the Packers could sneak up on anyone.

I've always liked Tony Dungy

A quiet spoken man with great dignity.

He has gone through a lot of family hurt in the past few years and truly deserved his superbowl win.
