Re: All things offseason discussion part II

Methinks this is not the first time Mr. Dungy has been less than enthusiastic about endorsing a player such as Sam. From a 2007 article:

Quote:
In a recent appearance on the HBO series Costas Now, Colts coach Tony Dungy showed his true colors. Dungy, a devout Christian, was initially asked if he'd have a problem with having a Muslim, Jew, or atheist on his team. Dungy immediately answered no. He doesn’t proselytize to his players, he said. Costas followed up with the same question about an openly gay player.

And Dungy paused.

He actually paused and crossed his arms—in obvious discomfort—before responding with canned blather about letting the player know what he thinks, and what the Bible says. Dungy also said that if the player were good he'd have no problem with it. But if that's the case—why the pause? Why the discomfort?

Why the discomfort? Well - b/c its distracting, that why.
