You never know what's going to happen. My mother was an English teacher. If someone had told her that I was going to write a book, she would never have believed that. So you can never say never.
From Tony Dungy
I've said all along that God is in control.
Our goal was to win, to win a Super Bowl, but also to win in the right way, to be role models to our community, to represent Indianapolis, the state of Indiana and the National Football League.
Lovie Smith and I are not only the first two African-Americans but Christian coaches showing that you can win doing it the Lord's way and we're more proud of that.
The further I get away from coaching, the more I know I made the right decision. You almost forget how wonderful family life is.
You may not win the Super Bowl. Your kids may not go on to be doctors and lawyers and everything may not go perfectly. That doesn't mean it was a bad plan or the wrong thing. It's just like a football season. Everything's not going to go perfect.
I guess I'm flattered that people think I can help get things done.
Anyone who's a parent dreads that call in the middle of the night. I have four grown children and I still dread it.
I just don't think you pass on a great quarterback if you have the opportunity. If need be, you can trade it away.
But I know I have a son who doesn't listen to anything I say and if he hears the same thing from someone else, sometimes it has a little more impact.
