dad was one of the most composed people that I knew, and he probably had the same personality as me, but when things would happen, he always looked at, \"Well, what can I do to make the situation better?\"\u00a0 And sometimes, with us, if it was chewing us out or getting on us or spanking, if that was going to help make it better, he would do that.\u00a0 But many other times it would be just explain the situation, here is how we need to do it better the next time, and I learned from him, but it took me a long time.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0This is FamilyLife Today for Thursday, January 17th.\u00a0 Our host is the president of FamilyLife, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll hear today some of the other ways that the game of football has helped Tony Dungy develop character.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And welcome to FamilyLife Today, thanks for joining us.\u00a0 You know, the last time we had the chance to sit down and talk with our guest today, he was just a pro football coach.\u00a0 But \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Just?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0But now he's \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Bob, you know how to insult our guests.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Now he's the coach of the Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts, at least for another couple of weeks.\u00a0 We'll see how that comes out this year.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And he is the author of the number-one New York Times bestselling book, \"Quiet Strength.\"\u00a0 He's kind of come up in the world, don't you think?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Yeah.\u00a0 Coach, you've added a little bit to your resume since the last time Bob and I talked to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It's amazing.\u00a0 Now I go through airports, and people do \u2013 they recognize you much more because of the Super Bowl, and I think also because of the book, and it's been amazing to me.\u00a0 But I'm enjoying it.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I have to ask a question here, if I can.\u00a0 The Kansas City game this past year, you know, you threw the red flag on that touchdown thing?\u00a0 Now, you can't say anything about the refs, can you, without a fine or anything like that?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, you have to be complimentary.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I went back and saw the tape \u2013 you went back and saw the tape, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Yes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0We saw the same thing, didn't we?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Yeah, I'm confused as to what it actually means to catch a ball now.\u00a0 I'll have to go back and work on that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I just wanted to make sure I was thinking just along the same lines.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0I tried to keep Bob from doing that.\u00a0 I said, \"He's going to get fined.\u00a0 It's not going to be pleasant.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, I always just say I'm just confused at what it means to catch the ball.\u00a0 I used to think you had to catch it and hold onto it, but not anymore.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Nothing more than that, isn't it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0As we watch you, though, on television on Sunday, walking up and down the sidelines, you just look like this calm, Tom Landry-style coach, who is just enjoying the afternoon watching his team.\u00a0 But in your book, \"Quiet Strength,\" you mentioned you've got a problem with your temper.\u00a0 In fact, you said you like to think of it as venting.\u00a0 Your dad used to think of it as what?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Really dumb, not very smart, because you aren't helping the situation.\u00a0 And I learned a lot about that from him.\u00a0 My dad was one of the most composed people that I knew, and he probably had the same personality as me, but when things would happen he always looked at, \"Well, what can I do to make the situation better?\"\u00a0 And sometimes, with us, if it was chewing us out or getting on us or spanking, if that was going to help make it better, he would do that, but many other times it would be just explain the situation, here is how we need to do it better the next time, and I learned from him, but it took me a long time.\u00a0 I'm still maturing, and that calm demeanor that you see is not my natural state.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You actually, I think, and back to what Bob tried to trap you into doing here again \u2013 you actually questioned a referee's call in the press conference one time and got fined 10 grand?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I did.\u00a0 In 1999, it was the first year of instant replay.\u00a0 We lost the game, and they told me afterwards that the replay official was wrong, and, you know, I knew the rules, and I did a little venting there, and it didn't help us win the game, it didn't change anything, it cost me $10,000, and I actually apologized to the commissioner.\u00a0 I said, \"I know the rule, I violated that, and I understand the fine.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0So what do you do when you feel anger today?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Well, now, wait, before you ask that \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Okay.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0At that point, you heard your father's voice again, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Very strongly, saying, \"Do you feel better?\u00a0 Did it help the situation?\u00a0 You vented, you got it off your chest, it didn't help your team win, and you're paying $10,000 to charity.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0So when you feel anger today what do you do with it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I really try to remind myself to think about the next step, and what am I going to do to improve the situation?\u00a0 Something has gone wrong, something that I don't like, and how are we going to make it better?\u00a0 And, usually, especially I've learned with officials, just yelling at them doesn't help.\u00a0 A lot of times they may say, \"Hey, yeah, I may have missed that one,\" but if you do it in the right way, I think they're more likely to give you the benefit of the doubt the next time as opposed to just you go off on them.\u00a0 Human nature tells you that's not how to respond.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So it's tough, and what people see in that calm face, a lot of times, underneath, that's not what's really going on.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Have you had to coach players on their anger?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I do.\u00a0 I try to talk to our guys how to really manifest it, how to get it out, how to make it positive and to take that energy and work on the next play and not think about what just happened, what penalty should have been called, that type of thing.\u00a0 And, hopefully, they learn from me, because I learn from other people, especially my dad, but I think for me, too, it's been Christian maturity and just growing and praying about it, and I do pray before the games, \"Let me keep my emotions under control, let me make good decisions, let me help my team at all times and not get caught in emotional outbursts.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0One of the verses that you quote in your book, \"Quiet Strength,\" is 2 Corinthians 4, verse 8 and 9.\u00a0 It says, \"For we are afflicted in every way but not crushed; perplexed but not driven to despair; persecuted but not forsaken; stripped down but not destroyed.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And, Tony, as I was reading your book, you not only revealed about your temper but also about moments that really bring men down and cause them to despair.\u00a0 And I want to take you to a moment when you walked the plank in Tampa Bay, and you were fired but, to do that, I want you to go back and paint the picture of what happened when you took your first NFL coaching assignment with a team that was really a cellar dweller.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I had been an assistant coach for 15 years and during, probably, the last four or five of those years, my name was being mentioned a lot, but I didn't get any of those jobs, and you start to wonder if you're ever going to get one, but I really believe that God's timing and His will that there was a place that He wanted me to go.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0In 1996, the Tampa Bay job opened.\u00a0 I didn't know anybody in Tampa.\u00a0 Usually to get a head coaching job, you have to have some type of entre to the owner, the general manager.\u00a0 I knew no one in Tampa; didn't feel I would get the job.\u00a0 Jimmy Johnson and Steve Spurrier were the two hot names at that time.\u00a0 They both turned it down, and I got the job, and I really felt it was really the Lord doing it \u2013 so many things went the right way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So you'd think that, \"Hey, I know this is the Lord's will, that's why we're here, some great things are going to happen,\" and we were there six years, and some good things did happen, and some great times with football players.\u00a0 We started winning there, we never quite got to the Super Bowl, but it was an enjoyable time; some great ministry things, and you just think it's going to go on because that's God's will.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And we lost the playoff game to Philadelphia at the end of the 2001 season, and the owners called me in and said they were going to make a change, and they didn't think we could get to the Super Bowl as we were currently constructed, and it was very, very painful.\u00a0 It was \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0I want to stop you there because you write about this in your book, and the owners called you over to their house, and you described driving into a driveway that was guarded by these big oak trees, and you noticed where they were because you said when you backed out you wanted to make sure you didn't hit one.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0But I was all set for this dignified noble meeting of men sitting down with a man and talking with him about terminating him from his employment, but that wasn't what happened.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, it's hard in that situation, because it is almost like a divorce.\u00a0 You've been together six years, and you're going in the same direction, you've got the same goals and then, all of a sudden, the ownership felt like, \"Hey, this isn't the way to go.\"\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So it's hard, it's painful, they had already made the decision, and just basically called me and said, you know, \"We're letting you go.\"\u00a0 And it was a very short, quick, to the point, and at that point I kind of exercised just what we've talked about.\u00a0 You can get angry, you can get frustrated, or you can say, \"How do I make the situation better?\u00a0 Where do we go from here?\" and my immediate thoughts at that point were God wants me to do something else.\u00a0 He may take me to another city in football, but maybe He's trying to get me to look at something outside of football.\u00a0 He brought me to Tampa for a reason.\u00a0 Maybe there are some ministry things that I would have never looked at if I stayed in football.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So I went home and talked to my wife and said, \"You know, we just have to figure out where we're supposed to go from here.\" And for four or five days, I wasn't sure.\u00a0 I thought maybe it was doing something outside of football, and then I got a call from Jim Irsay, the owner of the Colts.\u00a0 He left a message on my voice mail and said, you know, \"I think you're the perfect person to coach our team because of the values you have, the way you coach, that's what I want the Indianapolis Colts to represent.\u00a0 Please call me back.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And that was the beginning of coming to the Colts.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0You describe your separation in Tampa almost like a divorce, and the way it happened was almost like getting an e-mail from somebody saying, \"Oh, by the way, the marriage is over.\"\u00a0 It was maybe a step up from that.\u00a0 It was a short meeting.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Sixty seconds.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And not a whole lot of time to process or to say \"Thanks for the good years,\" or any of that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, we didn't really talk about that too much, and there was \u2013 you have to understand there was a lot of speculation.\u00a0 I was probably the last person to know.\u00a0 We had kind of gone through a lot of different what-ifs, and people had been saying in the newspapers, if we lost this playoff game to Philadelphia, they were going to make a change.\u00a0 I'd been given the assurance that that wasn't necessarily the case.\u00a0 I kind of went on that basis, and so you're reading this in the next day's paper that they're changing coaches, and you still don't think it's necessarily going to happen.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And at that time, it was probably best that just \u2013 that's how it was, and it was quick and to the point, it gave me a chance to move on and focus on what I wanted to do.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0When you lost that game, did you feel like \u2013 I mean, the whole season is right there.\u00a0 Did you go home that night, and you can't sleep, and you're replaying the whole game in your mind?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, I guess I really didn't.\u00a0 You're always disappointed when you lose in the playoffs because it's the last game of the year.\u00a0 You know you have to start from scratch again the next year, so I can't say, though, it was any more disappointing that any of the other playoff losses we had or that I thought any differently.\u00a0 I was just ready to move on, think about what we had to do to improve.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0As a man, to hold such a public position and to be fired, I mean, firing is not easy for a man at any level, but you were a hero locally in the Tampa Bay area.\u00a0 You'd taken a team that was a cellar dweller perennially and turned them into a playoff contender.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, the difficult part is that it is so public that people are on the radio saying, \"Is he or isn't he going to be fired?\u00a0 Is he going to be back?\u00a0 What do you think?\u00a0 I don't think he should be back.\u00a0 Yeah, I think they should give him another chance,\" and you're hearing all this being discussed, you feel like you've got the backing of your employers, but then you don't really know.\u00a0 So that was the tough part of it but, again, it just goes back to what we've been saying this whole broadcast.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0If you have your faith in your job, if you have your faith in your employer, if you have your faith in the public perception of you, that can all change.\u00a0 You can always be disappointed.\u00a0 So you have to put your faith in the Lord and understand that He allows a lot of things to happen.\u00a0 Some things are unpleasant, but he's going to orchestrate it for good, and I know in looking back and people that have commented to me about the book, more people, I think, have gotten encouragement from the way I maybe handled negative situations than winning the Super Bowl or winning this championship game or whatever.\u00a0 More people, I think, can relate to the tough times.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0You know, that's something \u2013 Pastor John Piper, I heard him preach a message one time, and it stuck with me.\u00a0 He said, \"When good things happen, and you say 'Praise the Lord,' people aren't necessarily impressed by that.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0\"But when tragedy happens, and people see you with strength in the midst of tragedy, unbelievers scratch their heads and go 'Where does that come from?'\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0That's what I think people who are not Christians, that's what they want to see.\u00a0 They want to see, \"Okay, when things happen that you can't explain, when things happen tough, is this real?\"\u00a0 It's very easy for it to be real when everything is going great.\u00a0 But let me see what happens \u2013 kind of what Satan said to the Lord about Job \u2013 let me see what happens when it's not so great.\u00a0 That's when we'll know, and I think that's our responsibility \u2013 to have the same feeling when we're up on the Super Bowl podium that we do when we're fired.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0In that sense, your Tampa Bay firing may have been a stronger witness to your faith than your Super Bowl victory.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I think, in a lot of ways, yes, definitely.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You know, it's interesting, again, in looking at your story, Tony, that it wasn't long after that your father died, and your mother had also passed away, and here you are, you'd faced these setbacks and yet in the midst of that, you were unwavering in calling people to both trust God, what you've just talked about here, and also back to their families and making sure they keep their families intact.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0In fact, it was the losing of your father that really \u2013 it seemed like, in reading your book, at least, that really embedded the need to protect that circle of people that love you the most.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I think I did realize it at that point.\u00a0 My mom had died just before I got fired in Tampa, the end of the 2001 season.\u00a0 We came here, we got close to the Super Bowl a couple of times, and my dad died in 2004.\u00a0 And I thought this was the end, for me, of the training process.\u00a0 Everything that I had learned from those two people that had gotten me here now was over.\u00a0 I'm going to have some memories of that, and I'm going to continue to build on that, but they're not going to be able to teach me anything else, and now I've got to do the same thing.\u00a0 I've still got some years to teach my kids and to do the same kind of job that they did so that, then, their families can benefit the same way.\u00a0 That's when it hit me, when my dad died.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You had a talk that you give at training camp, and that August was no different when training camp came together, and I want to read to you what you say at that training camp.\u00a0 You said, when talking to the team about what to do with making your family a priority, you said, \"Deal with them, focus on them, and take care of any issues or problems related to them.\u00a0 If I ever learned that there was something with your family that needed to be addressed, and you put the team considerations before family without talking with me, there is going to be a problem, a big problem.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Wow, that's pretty stout.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Well, I try to say that every year because guys don't always know that you're serious.\u00a0 You know, they want to believe that but every year we'll get a situation, \"Hey, I needed to go home, but I didn't know what you would say,\" and that type of thing, and I always want to let them know it always, always, always comes first.\u00a0 If you've got children that have health issues, whatever \u2013 if you've got parents, family, that's got to come first.\u00a0 We will adjust, we'll adapt, we'll make it work on this end at work, but don't neglect any situation with your family because of work.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0That's not the universal coaching ethos around the NFL, is it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It probably isn't.\u00a0 Hopefully, we're getting to more of that.\u00a0 You can get your job done, you can get your work done, and it's just a mentality that we've created, and I think we, as men, moreso than anybody, that work is important, and it is important.\u00a0 But it can't replace the importance of family.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You actually have a once-a-month meeting by telephone with a number of NFL coaches \u2013 five head coaches along with several assistant coaches, and these kind of conversations are the kind of conversations you talk about right here.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0You really do \u2013 what to do when this situation \u2013 we had one with the Minnesota Vikings.\u00a0 A player, Troy Williamson, lost his grandmother and went to the funeral, stayed, had to do some things to tie up loose ends, missed the game, and a couple of the coaches from the Vikings talked, \"What should we do?\u00a0 Here is how we want to handle it.\"\u00a0 They actually kind of changed their mind of how to handle it and gave Troy a little more leeway and let him take care of some things because of a conversation that way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And that's got to send a message to the fans who are tuning in on Sunday and hearing that this player is not playing, he's not here today, he is back taking care of things with his family, that's a loud statement to the fans who are watching football.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Well, that's what I wish people understood.\u00a0 We kind of put these guys in a bubble.\u00a0 They play on television, they have a job to perform for 60 minutes every weekend out there, and they should do it with no problems.\u00a0 But they're the same people that everyone else is, and they have the same issues and the same family problems.\u00a0 You know, we're not immune to those things.\u00a0 People sometimes think we are, that should be separate from who you are, but it isn't.\u00a0 It's all part of life.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0And it's part of your values, and what you are doing in the NFL is taking the leadership, not merely with a team, but with a group of coaches to encourage them in their faith to make their priorities right and to keep them right and to give them courage to stand by those convictions, long haul.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0I have to ask you this question because you were courageous enough to write about it in your book.\u00a0 There was an advertisement that Terrell Owens, TO, who now plays for the cowboys, where he was advertising for a \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It was \"Monday Night Football,\" yeah.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Yeah, and it was an advertisement for \"Desperate Housewives,\" and you took a stand, Coach, and I just want to thank you for using the platform.\u00a0 I know that you were misunderstood, but I heard you.\u00a0 I knew what you were talking about, and I just want to thank you for doing that, because there needs to be more courage like that from the boardrooms of America, not just merely from coaches but all across the nation.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I agree, and it was \u2013 you know, you always look back and think you could do things differently, and I wish I'd have said it a little differently, but it was important to me that we should not allow ABC to use our players and our league as a platform to promote something that isn't family-oriented on a show that a lot of families are going to watch in prime time television.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0It was a totally inappropriate advertisement, and I just appreciate you standing firm on that, and I also appreciate what you've written in your book, calling people to faith, because we're all on a journey, like you write about in your book.\u00a0 We don't know what the next phone call, the next e-mail, the next bend in the road has for us.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I had a great discussion with my son riding to school today, dropping him off.\u00a0 Sean Taylor, a young 24-year-old player for the Redskins, normally would have been at the game, was hurt.\u00a0 His house got burglarized, he was killed, and you're exactly right, we don't know the fact that we're 24 years old and playing in the National Football League, what the next phone call is going to be, and that's where the faith and what you believe in is so important.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Yes, it's one of the things we talk to couples about at our FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conferences.\u00a0 We tell them that you don't know what's coming next in your family, in your job, in your health, your circumstances, your finances, and you've go to not only have a strong faith in Christ that has been developed during the calmer times, but you also have to have a strong relationship so that you don't move toward isolation in your marriage relationship.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0This spring, Coach, after the season is over, we're going to have dozens of these conferences in cities all across the country, and we're encouraging our listeners this week to get registered for one of these upcoming conferences, because if they register before the end of the week, they will save $60 per couple off the regular registration fee for a FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And it is a good weekend away where you can strengthen the foundation of your relationship so that you're ready when challenges come, because they're going to come in a marriage and in a family. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0If you'd like to register for an upcoming conference, you can go to our website, FamilyLife.com, get all the information about when conferences are coming to what cities and make sure your schedule is clear, and then register online, and if you're filling out the online registration form, when you get to the keycode box, just type my name in \u2013 just type in \"Bob,\" and that will identify you as a FamilyLife Today listener and will automatically deduct the $60 per couple from the regular registration fee as you fill out the form.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Or call 1-800-FLTODAY, mention that you listen to FamilyLife Today, and you want to register for an upcoming conference and, again, you can take advantage of this special offer for FamilyLife Today listeners, and it's over this week.\u00a0 So don't hesitate.\u00a0 Call or go online today and get registered for a conference, take advantage of the savings and enjoy your weekend at a FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And, by the way, if you have not yet read Coach Dungy's bestselling book, \"Quiet Strength,\" it's a terrific book, as Dennis said, and we've got it in our FamilyLife Resource Center.\u00a0 You can request a copy from us on our website at FamilyLife.com or you can call 1-800-FLTODAY, and we'll make arrangements to have a copy of the book sent to you.\u00a0 If you're a football fan or you know someone who is, maybe somebody who doesn't know Christ, this is a great gift to give to someone that may open a spiritual dialog with that person.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So, again, get a copy of the book on our website at FamilyLife.com, or call us at 1-800-F-as-in-family, L-as-in-life, and then the word TODAY.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Now, tomorrow, we're going to talk with Coach Dungy about what had to be one of the most difficult seasons he's had to walk through in his life.\u00a0 That was a season a few years back when his son, James, committed suicide.\u00a0 We'll talk about that tomorrow.\u00a0 I hope you can be with us for that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0I want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, and our entire broadcast production team.\u00a0 On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll see you back next time for another edition of FamilyLife Today. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0FamilyLife Today is a production of FamilyLife of Little Rock, Arkansas, a

that I knew, and he probably had the same personality as me, but when things would happen, he always looked at, \"Well, what can I do to make the situation better?\"\u00a0 And sometimes, with us, if it was chewing us out or getting on us or spanking, if that was going to help make it better, he would do that.\u00a0 But many other times it would be just explain the situation, here is how we need

president of FamilyLife, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll hear today some of the other ways that the game of football has helped Tony Dungy develop character.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And welcome to FamilyLife Today, thanks for joining us.\u00a0 You know, the last time we had the chance to sit down and talk with our guest today, he was just a pro football coach.\u00a0 But \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Just?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0But now he's \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Bob, you know how to insult our guests.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Now he's the coach of the Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts, at least for another couple of weeks.\u00a0 We'll see how that comes out this year.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And he is the author of the number-one New York Times bestselling book, \"Quiet Strength.\"\u00a0 He's kind of come up in the world, don't you think?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Yeah.\u00a0 Coach, you've added a little bit to your resume since the last time Bob and I talked to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It's amazing.\u00a0 Now I go through airports, and people do \u2013 they recognize you much more because of the Super Bowl, and I think also because of the book, and it's been amazing to me.\u00a0 But I'm enjoying it.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I have to ask a question here, if I can.\u00a0 The Kansas City game this past year, you know, you threw the red flag on that touchdown thing?\u00a0 Now, you can't say anything about the refs, can you, without a fine or anything like that?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, you have to be complimentary.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I went back and saw the tape \u2013 you went back and saw the tape, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Yes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0We saw the same thing, didn't we?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Yeah, I'm confused as to what it actually means to catch a ball now.\u00a0 I'll have to go back and work on that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0I just wanted to make sure I was thinking just along the same lines.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0I tried to keep Bob from doing that.\u00a0 I said, \"He's going to get fined.\u00a0 It's not going to be pleasant.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, I always just say I'm just confused at what it means to catch the ball.\u00a0 I used to think you had to catch it and hold onto it, but not anymore.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Nothing more than that, isn't it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0As we watch you, though, on television on Sunday, walking up and down the sidelines, you just look like this calm, Tom Landry-style coach, who is just enjoying the afternoon watching his team.\u00a0 But in your book, \"Quiet Strength,\" you mentioned you've got a problem with your temper.\u00a0 In fact, you said you like to think of it as venting.\u00a0 Your dad used to think of it as what?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Really dumb, not very smart, because you aren't helping the situation.\u00a0 And I learned a lot about that from him.\u00a0 My dad was one of the most composed people that I knew, and he probably had the same personality as me, but when things would happen he always looked at, \"Well, what can I do to make the situation better?\"\u00a0 And sometimes, with us, if it was chewing us out or getting on us or spanking, if that was going to help make it better, he would do that, but many other times it would be just explain the situation, here is how we need to do it better the next time, and I learned from him, but it took me a long time.\u00a0 I'm still maturing, and that calm demeanor that you see is not my natural state.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You actually, I think, and back to what Bob tried to trap you into doing here again \u2013 you actually questioned a referee's call in the press conference one time and got fined 10 grand?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I did.\u00a0 In 1999, it was the first year of instant replay.\u00a0 We lost the game, and they told me afterwards that the replay official was wrong, and, you know, I knew the rules, and I did a little venting there, and it didn't help us win the game, it didn't change anything, it cost me $10,000, and I actually apologized to the commissioner.\u00a0 I said, \"I know the rule, I violated that, and I understand the fine.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0So what do you do when you feel anger today?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Well, now, wait, before you ask that \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Okay.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0At that point, you heard your father's voice again, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Very strongly, saying, \"Do you feel better?\u00a0 Did it help the situation?\u00a0 You vented, you got it off your chest, it didn't help your team win, and you're paying $10,000 to charity.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0So when you feel anger today what do you do with it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I really try to remind myself to think about the next step, and what am I going to do to improve the situation?\u00a0 Something has gone wrong, something that I don't like, and how are we going to make it better?\u00a0 And, usually, especially I've learned with officials, just yelling at them doesn't help.\u00a0 A lot of times they may say, \"Hey, yeah, I may have missed that one,\" but if you do it in the right way, I think they're more likely to give you the benefit of the doubt the next time as opposed to just you go off on them.\u00a0 Human nature tells you that's not how to respond.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So it's tough, and what people see in that calm face, a lot of times, underneath, that's not what's really going on.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Have you had to coach players on their anger?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I do.\u00a0 I try to talk to our guys how to really manifest it, how to get it out, how to make it positive and to take that energy and work on the next play and not think about what just happened, what penalty should have been called, that type of thing.\u00a0 And, hopefully, they learn from me, because I learn from other people, especially my dad, but I think for me, too, it's been Christian maturity and just growing and praying about it, and I do pray before the games, \"Let me keep my emotions under control, let me make good decisions, let me help my team at all times and not get caught in emotional outbursts.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0One of the verses that you quote in your book, \"Quiet Strength,\" is 2 Corinthians 4, verse 8 and 9.\u00a0 It says, \"For we are afflicted in every way but not crushed; perplexed but not driven to despair; persecuted but not forsaken; stripped down but not destroyed.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And, Tony, as I was reading your book, you not only revealed about your temper but also about moments that really bring men down and cause them to despair.\u00a0 And I want to take you to a moment when you walked the plank in Tampa Bay, and you were fired but, to do that, I want you to go back and paint the picture of what happened when you took your first NFL coaching assignment with a team that was really a cellar dweller.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I had been an assistant coach for 15 years and during, probably, the last four or five of those years, my name was being mentioned a lot, but I didn't get any of those jobs, and you start to wonder if you're ever going to get one, but I really believe that God's timing and His will that there was a place that He wanted me to go.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0In 1996, the Tampa Bay job opened.\u00a0 I didn't know anybody in Tampa.\u00a0 Usually to get a head coaching job, you have to have some type of entre to the owner, the general manager.\u00a0 I knew no one in Tampa; didn't feel I would get the job.\u00a0 Jimmy Johnson and Steve Spurrier were the two hot names at that time.\u00a0 They both turned it down, and I got the job, and I really felt it was really the Lord doing it \u2013 so many things went the right way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So you'd think that, \"Hey, I know this is the Lord's will, that's why we're here, some great things are going to happen,\" and we were there six years, and some good things did happen, and some great times with football players.\u00a0 We started winning there, we never quite got to the Super Bowl, but it was an enjoyable time; some great ministry things, and you just think it's going to go on because that's God's will.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And we lost the playoff game to Philadelphia at the end of the 2001 season, and the owners called me in and said they were going to make a change, and they didn't think we could get to the Super Bowl as we were currently constructed, and it was very, very painful.\u00a0 It was \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0I want to stop you there because you write about this in your book, and the owners called you over to their house, and you described driving into a driveway that was guarded by these big oak trees, and you noticed where they were because you said when you backed out you wanted to make sure you didn't hit one.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0But I was all set for this dignified noble meeting of men sitting down with a man and talking with him about terminating him from his employment, but that wasn't what happened.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, it's hard in that situation, because it is almost like a divorce.\u00a0 You've been together six years, and you're going in the same direction, you've got the same goals and then, all of a sudden, the ownership felt like, \"Hey, this isn't the way to go.\"\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So it's hard, it's painful, they had already made the decision, and just basically called me and said, you know, \"We're letting you go.\"\u00a0 And it was a very short, quick, to the point, and at that point I kind of exercised just what we've talked about.\u00a0 You can get angry, you can get frustrated, or you can say, \"How do I make the situation better?\u00a0 Where do we go from here?\" and my immediate thoughts at that point were God wants me to do something else.\u00a0 He may take me to another city in football, but maybe He's trying to get me to look at something outside of football.\u00a0 He brought me to Tampa for a reason.\u00a0 Maybe there are some ministry things that I would have never looked at if I stayed in football.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So I went home and talked to my wife and said, \"You know, we just have to figure out where we're supposed to go from here.\" And for four or five days, I wasn't sure.\u00a0 I thought maybe it was doing something outside of football, and then I got a call from Jim Irsay, the owner of the Colts.\u00a0 He left a message on my voice mail and said, you know, \"I think you're the perfect person to coach our team because of the values you have, the way you coach, that's what I want the Indianapolis Colts to represent.\u00a0 Please call me back.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And that was the beginning of coming to the Colts.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0You describe your separation in Tampa almost like a divorce, and the way it happened was almost like getting an e-mail from somebody saying, \"Oh, by the way, the marriage is over.\"\u00a0 It was maybe a step up from that.\u00a0 It was a short meeting.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Sixty seconds.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And not a whole lot of time to process or to say \"Thanks for the good years,\" or any of that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, we didn't really talk about that too much, and there was \u2013 you have to understand there was a lot of speculation.\u00a0 I was probably the last person to know.\u00a0 We had kind of gone through a lot of different what-ifs, and people had been saying in the newspapers, if we lost this playoff game to Philadelphia, they were going to make a change.\u00a0 I'd been given the assurance that that wasn't necessarily the case.\u00a0 I kind of went on that basis, and so you're reading this in the next day's paper that they're changing coaches, and you still don't think it's necessarily going to happen.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And at that time, it was probably best that just \u2013 that's how it was, and it was quick and to the point, it gave me a chance to move on and focus on what I wanted to do.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0When you lost that game, did you feel like \u2013 I mean, the whole season is right there.\u00a0 Did you go home that night, and you can't sleep, and you're replaying the whole game in your mind?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, I guess I really didn't.\u00a0 You're always disappointed when you lose in the playoffs because it's the last game of the year.\u00a0 You know you have to start from scratch again the next year, so I can't say, though, it was any more disappointing that any of the other playoff losses we had or that I thought any differently.\u00a0 I was just ready to move on, think about what we had to do to improve.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0As a man, to hold such a public position and to be fired, I mean, firing is not easy for a man at any level, but you were a hero locally in the Tampa Bay area.\u00a0 You'd taken a team that was a cellar dweller perennially and turned them into a playoff contender.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0No, the difficult part is that it is so public that people are on the radio saying, \"Is he or isn't he going to be fired?\u00a0 Is he going to be back?\u00a0 What do you think?\u00a0 I don't think he should be back.\u00a0 Yeah, I think they should give him another chance,\" and you're hearing all this being discussed, you feel like you've got the backing of your employers, but then you don't really know.\u00a0 So that was the tough part of it but, again, it just goes back to what we've been saying this whole broadcast.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0If you have your faith in your job, if you have your faith in your employer, if you have your faith in the public perception of you, that can all change.\u00a0 You can always be disappointed.\u00a0 So you have to put your faith in the Lord and understand that He allows a lot of things to happen.\u00a0 Some things are unpleasant, but he's going to orchestrate it for good, and I know in looking back and people that have commented to me about the book, more people, I think, have gotten encouragement from the way I maybe handled negative situations than winning the Super Bowl or winning this championship game or whatever.\u00a0 More people, I think, can relate to the tough times.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0You know, that's something \u2013 Pastor John Piper, I heard him preach a message one time, and it stuck with me.\u00a0 He said, \"When good things happen, and you say 'Praise the Lord,' people aren't necessarily impressed by that.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0\"But when tragedy happens, and people see you with strength in the midst of tragedy, unbelievers scratch their heads and go 'Where does that come from?'\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0That's what I think people who are not Christians, that's what they want to see.\u00a0 They want to see, \"Okay, when things happen that you can't explain, when things happen tough, is this real?\"\u00a0 It's very easy for it to be real when everything is going great.\u00a0 But let me see what happens \u2013 kind of what Satan said to the Lord about Job \u2013 let me see what happens when it's not so great.\u00a0 That's when we'll know, and I think that's our responsibility \u2013 to have the same feeling when we're up on the Super Bowl podium that we do when we're fired.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0In that sense, your Tampa Bay firing may have been a stronger witness to your faith than your Super Bowl victory.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I think, in a lot of ways, yes, definitely.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You know, it's interesting, again, in looking at your story, Tony, that it wasn't long after that your father died, and your mother had also passed away, and here you are, you'd faced these setbacks and yet in the midst of that, you were unwavering in calling people to both trust God, what you've just talked about here, and also back to their families and making sure they keep their families intact.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0In fact, it was the losing of your father that really \u2013 it seemed like, in reading your book, at least, that really embedded the need to protect that circle of people that love you the most.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I think I did realize it at that point.\u00a0 My mom had died just before I got fired in Tampa, the end of the 2001 season.\u00a0 We came here, we got close to the Super Bowl a couple of times, and my dad died in 2004.\u00a0 And I thought this was the end, for me, of the training process.\u00a0 Everything that I had learned from those two people that had gotten me here now was over.\u00a0 I'm going to have some memories of that, and I'm going to continue to build on that, but they're not going to be able to teach me anything else, and now I've got to do the same thing.\u00a0 I've still got some years to teach my kids and to do the same kind of job that they did so that, then, their families can benefit the same way.\u00a0 That's when it hit me, when my dad died.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You had a talk that you give at training camp, and that August was no different when training camp came together, and I want to read to you what you say at that training camp.\u00a0 You said, when talking to the team about what to do with making your family a priority, you said, \"Deal with them, focus on them, and take care of any issues or problems related to them.\u00a0 If I ever learned that there was something with your family that needed to be addressed, and you put the team considerations before family without talking with me, there is going to be a problem, a big problem.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Wow, that's pretty stout.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Well, I try to say that every year because guys don't always know that you're serious.\u00a0 You know, they want to believe that but every year we'll get a situation, \"Hey, I needed to go home, but I didn't know what you would say,\" and that type of thing, and I always want to let them know it always, always, always comes first.\u00a0 If you've got children that have health issues, whatever \u2013 if you've got parents, family, that's got to come first.\u00a0 We will adjust, we'll adapt, we'll make it work on this end at work, but don't neglect any situation with your family because of work.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0That's not the universal coaching ethos around the NFL, is it?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It probably isn't.\u00a0 Hopefully, we're getting to more of that.\u00a0 You can get your job done, you can get your work done, and it's just a mentality that we've created, and I think we, as men, moreso than anybody, that work is important, and it is important.\u00a0 But it can't replace the importance of family.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0You actually have a once-a-month meeting by telephone with a number of NFL coaches \u2013 five head coaches along with several assistant coaches, and these kind of conversations are the kind of conversations you talk about right here.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0You really do \u2013 what to do when this situation \u2013 we had one with the Minnesota Vikings.\u00a0 A player, Troy Williamson, lost his grandmother and went to the funeral, stayed, had to do some things to tie up loose ends, missed the game, and a couple of the coaches from the Vikings talked, \"What should we do?\u00a0 Here is how we want to handle it.\"\u00a0 They actually kind of changed their mind of how to handle it and gave Troy a little more leeway and let him take care of some things because of a conversation that way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0And that's got to send a message to the fans who are tuning in on Sunday and hearing that this player is not playing, he's not here today, he is back taking care of things with his family, that's a loud statement to the fans who are watching football.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0Well, that's what I wish people understood.\u00a0 We kind of put these guys in a bubble.\u00a0 They play on television, they have a job to perform for 60 minutes every weekend out there, and they should do it with no problems.\u00a0 But they're the same people that everyone else is, and they have the same issues and the same family problems.\u00a0 You know, we're not immune to those things.\u00a0 People sometimes think we are, that should be separate from who you are, but it isn't.\u00a0 It's all part of life.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0And it's part of your values, and what you are doing in the NFL is taking the leadership, not merely with a team, but with a group of coaches to encourage them in their faith to make their priorities right and to keep them right and to give them courage to stand by those convictions, long haul.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0I have to ask you this question because you were courageous enough to write about it in your book.\u00a0 There was an advertisement that Terrell Owens, TO, who now plays for the cowboys, where he was advertising for a \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0It was \"Monday Night Football,\" yeah.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0Yeah, and it was an advertisement for \"Desperate Housewives,\" and you took a stand, Coach, and I just want to thank you for using the platform.\u00a0 I know that you were misunderstood, but I heard you.\u00a0 I knew what you were talking about, and I just want to thank you for doing that, because there needs to be more courage like that from the boardrooms of America, not just merely from coaches but all across the nation.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I agree, and it was \u2013 you know, you always look back and think you could do things differently, and I wish I'd have said it a little differently, but it was important to me that we should not allow ABC to use our players and our league as a platform to promote something that isn't family-oriented on a show that a lot of families are going to watch in prime time television.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tDennis:\u00a0It was a totally inappropriate advertisement, and I just appreciate you standing firm on that, and I also appreciate what you've written in your book, calling people to faith, because we're all on a journey, like you write about in your book.\u00a0 We don't know what the next phone call, the next e-mail, the next bend in the road has for us.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tTony:\u00a0I had a great discussion with my son riding to school today, dropping him off.\u00a0 Sean Taylor, a young 24-year-old player for the Redskins, normally would have been at the game, was hurt.\u00a0 His house got burglarized, he was killed, and you're exactly right, we don't know the fact that we're 24 years old and playing in the National Football League, what the next phone call is going to be, and that's where the faith and what you believe in is so important.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tBob:\u00a0Yes, it's one of the things we talk to couples about at our FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conferences.\u00a0 We tell them that you don't know what's coming next in your family, in your job, in your health, your circumstances, your finances, and you've go to not only have a strong faith in Christ that has been developed during the calmer times, but you also have to have a strong relationship so that you don't move toward isolation in your marriage relationship.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0This spring, Coach, after the season is over, we're going to have dozens of these conferences in cities all across the country, and we're encouraging our listeners this week to get registered for one of these upcoming conferences, because if they register before the end of the week, they will save $60 per couple off the regular registration fee for a FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And it is a good weekend away where you can strengthen the foundation of your relationship so that you're ready when challenges come, because they're going to come in a marriage and in a family. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0If you'd like to register for an upcoming conference, you can go to our website, FamilyLife.com, get all the information about when conferences are coming to what cities and make sure your schedule is clear, and then register online, and if you're filling out the online registration form, when you get to the keycode box, just type my name in \u2013 just type in \"Bob,\" and that will identify you as a FamilyLife Today listener and will automatically deduct the $60 per couple from the regular registration fee as you fill out the form.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Or call 1-800-FLTODAY, mention that you listen to FamilyLife Today, and you want to register for an upcoming conference and, again, you can take advantage of this special offer for FamilyLife Today listeners, and it's over this week.\u00a0 So don't hesitate.\u00a0 Call or go online today and get registered for a conference, take advantage of the savings and enjoy your weekend at a FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0And, by the way, if you have not yet read Coach Dungy's bestselling book, \"Quiet Strength,\" it's a terrific book, as Dennis said, and we've got it in our FamilyLife Resource Center.\u00a0 You can request a copy from us on our website at FamilyLife.com or you can call 1-800-FLTODAY, and we'll make arrangements to have a copy of the book sent to you.\u00a0 If you're a football fan or you know someone who is, maybe somebody who doesn't know Christ, this is a great gift to give to someone that may open a spiritual dialog with that person.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0So, again, get a copy of the book on our website at FamilyLife.com, or call us at 1-800-F-as-in-family, L-as-in-life, and then the word TODAY.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0Now, tomorrow, we're going to talk with Coach Dungy about what had to be one of the most difficult seasons he's had to walk through in his life.\u00a0 That was a season a few years back when his son, James, committed suicide.\u00a0 We'll talk about that tomorrow.\u00a0 I hope you can be with us for that.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0I want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, and our entire broadcast production team.\u00a0 On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll see you back next time for another edition of FamilyLife Today. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u00a0FamilyLife Today is a production of FamilyLife of Little Rock, Arkansas, a
