Tony Dungy, the first black coach ever to win a Super Bowl, might have escaped notice this week had he merely supported Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s “Responsible Fatherhood Initiative.” His real sin was to explain why.
Said Dungy, “That hit me.” Predictably, Dungy’s truth-telling stirred the woke beehive. “Dungy standing there cackling,” tweeted former ESPN commentator Keith Olbermann, “a fascist political prop.”
“Fathers are extremely important, but yeah,” tweeted Jemele Hill, also formerly with ESPN, “that ain’t how this works. If a father is in the home and can’t find a job, then what?”
Deadspin, which comically positions itself as “sports news without fear, favor, or compromise,” headlined its article on the DeSantis initiative, “Tony Dungy is constantly used as a prop by bigots.” Reporter Carron Phillips could find little to fault in the initiative itself but took offense that Dungy would appear with DeSantis who, in his unbiased opinion, had made Florida “arguably the worst state in the nation.”
Undaunted, Dungy fired back exactly as warranted. “2 days ago I spoke on behalf of a Florida bill that supports dads & families and it offended some people,” tweeted Dungy. “14 yrs ago Pres Obama said the same things almost verbatim. I’m assuming people were outraged at him too.” Added Dungy defiantly, “I am serving the Lord so I’ll keep supporting dads and families.”

Wow
Keith Olbermann is vile.
Good for him but if there is a ‘black America’ Then there must be a white America too.
“Predictably, Dungy’s truth-telling stirred the woke beehive. “Dungy standing there cackling,” tweeted former ESPN commentator Keith Olbermann, “a fascist political prop.”
This statement alone proves that Keith Olbermann is a 100% first-class DeLuxe jerk.

That’s still up.
Guess he’s someone they don’t dare ban.
Keith Olbermann can’t keep a job and everyone hates him.
Oberdouche enjoys giving the Nazi salute to himself in the mirror.
Obama pushed homosexual depravity on the black family and culture. That will be his legacy to black people.
Larry Sinclair approves of this message.
Keith, the last time I looked you were White! STF up white boy
Well, since there are more job openings then people looking, maybe the father isn't looking.
“If a father is in the home and can’t find a job, then what?”
Blame whitey then give him money not to work.
I am so honored that Tony Dungy is my Christian brother......and so glad he openly honors our Lord.
Kieth is scum. And I'm insulting scum...
Tony Dungy is first class all the way. I have enormous respect for him.
Funny how it’s OK, even mandatory, to laud single mothers. How hard they have to work to be bread winners and parents. How saintly their motives, how valiant their strides. It’s the most difficult thing to do on the planet. But somehow it’s not OK to say: “If you have to be super human to do it right, perhaps it’s a bad idea.”
“2 days ago I spoke on behalf of a Florida bill that supports dads & families and it offended some people,” tweeted Dungy. “14 yrs ago Pres Obama said the same things almost verbatim. I’m assuming people were outraged at him too.” Added Dungy defiantly, “I am serving the Lord so I’ll keep supporting dads and families.”
They couldn’t vote for Trump so that there would be jobs for a father in the home—oh, no. Not that!
On TODAY'S MTP with Chuck Todd - Todd explained a way to keep inflation down was to allow MORE illegals into the country TO DRIVE DOWN WAGES. That's what's been happening to jobs for black men...
My work can’t even find people with no real skills, minimal job history, to do slightly physical, a little tedious, work indoors in a climate controlled environment, for $15/hr. The idea that black men can’t get a job somewhere is complete, 100% BS. They may have to move out of ghetto hellholes, though.
