Tony Dungy

One week ago today, Indianapolis Colts coach, Tony Dungy announced his retirement from professional football. It was a sad day for all Colt fans.

To say Coach Dungy was successful in football is certainly understated. Let me list a few highlights from his coaching career:

- He retired with a 148-79 won/loss record as a head coach

- He is the only coach in NFL history with six straight 12 win seasons

-His ten consecutive trips to the playoffs with Tampa Bay and Indianapolis is also a record for an NFL head coach

- Six divisional championships

- Three championship game appearances

- One Super Bowl win

Now here is the deal, more outstanding than any of his accomplishments is the man himself. In the high pressure world of professional football, he was unafraid to live by his stated values of faith & family. He lived by those priorities, and his life has been, and continues to be, an influence for Christ and strong families.

Faith, family, and football, great priorities Tony!
