Tony Dungy: "I wouldn't have taken him." (Michael Sam)

"I wouldn't have taken him,'' said former Bucs and Colts coach Tony Dungy, now an analyst for NBC. "Not because I don't believe Michael Sam should have a chance to play, but I wouldn't want to deal with all of it.

"It's not going to be totally smooth … things will happen.''

Tony Dungy is the man who wouldn't have anything to do with his own son, who had major drug problems and eventually committed suicide. I guess he knows all about avoiding people who may come with extra baggage.

Tony's gonna get some heat for this one. In the media, he's now the biggot that's fine with guys that just got out of prison. Oh, and he's black too. It all depends on whether or not the networks want to ruin his rep or not, but his Mr. Good Guy days may be numbered.

 

The cast of Duck Dynasty makes controversial statements yet people still tune in.

different demographic but I suppose it's a toss up...ESPN and ABC are all about pro-Michael Sam. It just depends on if they want to run with it. Do we need to bring up a certain Clippers owner?

 

Who is being forced to sell his team? I think he's getting a forced punishment. Had they fined and banned him eventually he would sell the team on his own because free agents would refuse to come. But everyone likes it when a billionaire fails.

GENIUS I'm talking about media attention. That's it. What if TMZ hadn't ever published the damn tape? What if ESPN though it was a non-story? None of it would've happened

 

My whole point is if the networks want it to move mountains, it will. Period.

Thought technically a suicide, I always heard his son died during autoerotic asphyxiation. No many young folks hang themselves these days.

I never heard about that. Doesn't change the fact that the "good guy" Tony Dungy wouldn't have anything to do with his own child, though.

Dungy is a good guy. Anyone who is hating on him needs to get a life. He's entitled to his own opinion.

Yeah, Tony's a great guy. I'm sure his son would back that statement. Wait, never mind.

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
