Did you here the interview with Indianapolis Colts Coach Tony Dungy?


SuperBowl 41 had been hyped as a major social milestone in U.S. history, since for the time, the head coaches of both teams were black.


But when the game was over and the Indianapolis Colts had defeated the Chicago Bears 29-17, the winning coach said Jesus Christ was more important than any racial moment.


During the nationally televised post-game show on CBS, coach Tony Dungy was asked specifically about the "social significance."


Jim Nantz of CBS Sports: This is one of those moments, Tony, where there is also social significance in this victory, and to have your hands on the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Tell me what this means to you right now.


Tony Dungy: I'll tell you what. I'm proud to be representing African-American coaches, to be the first African-American to win this. It means an awful lot to our country. But again, more than anything, I've said it before, Lovie Smith and I, 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.


Here's the link to the article.
