FIRE TONY DUNGY? Perhaps...


This is going to be a very un-popular blog entry, and a very short one.


I work in a white-collar corporate environment as a Linux Systems Engineer. I have not climbed the ranks as of yet, where I have people reporting to me, but I am surrounded by management everyday – so I have an idea of the stress and headaches that they go through.

Some have large numbers of engineers reporting to them, some have few. But all are responsible to their own bosses for the productivity, or lack thereof of the engineers that are under them.

If everyone on every team in this building arrived at work everyday and performed miserably prior to going to lunch, and even when they returned from lunch, only from time to time performed up to par enough to get the job done, my boss would be in dire straits. If this went on for a month, and my boss did little to prevent it from reoccurring, my boos would be terminated. From there on out, some of the engineers that worked for him, if they continued to perform inadequately, would be terminated as well.

Tony Dungy should be brought up before Colt’s Management with a warning that he has five more games to get his team together, get his defense coordinator the hot and holy medieval treatment. For example - at rural king I know for a fact that you can buy cattle prods. And trust me - having worked for a hog farm as a kid - they work on pigs that weigh 600+ pounds, they will work on lazy-ass defense coaches just fine.

Here's a thought - get the GUSE on the job - Tony Siragusa! Make him the coach of the Colt's defense! He can take a hit and by god he can give one too, and he knows what it's like to get others give a beating.


And some civilian thoughts?

They need inspiration prior to the game. So here's my prescription:

The Colts need to watch some highlight scenes from "We are Marshall," "The Dirty Dozen," "Rooster Cogburn," "The Outlaw Josey Wales," and "The Longest Yard." THE ORIGINAL with Burt Reynolds.

Oh yeah - they need to watch them on the Jumbotron while sitting on the field drinking PBR's and sucking down whoppers.


The Colts are infamous for the “1st half the game sad to watch, pathetic to watch, embarrassing to watch and then half time rolls around and 40% of the time they pull it together after whatever “coming to Jesus meeting they have in the locker room.”

I say Tony Dungy’s job should be made clearly on the line. Now.

I rarely watch the Colts games anymore out of sheer embarrassment. But after read Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War,” we should not blame the team.

Blame their inept Generals.

And eliminate them from the battle front.

  1. Silliness.

    This is what you get when you post an entry after you've been off your meds for too long.

    The Colts have MANY deficiencies. Peyton Manning simply wasn't himself for the first five or six games, and Marvin Harrison still isn't performing up to his past standards. The defense has been banged up, and they weren't very good before the injuries.

    Dungy is a good coach. He's probably gonna call it quits after this year anyways, but an ultimatum based upon the performance of this bunch is unwarranted.

  2. This is what I get from someone who can't hold down even a french-fry maker's job.

  3. Funny post Allen. You should write these ironic posts more often. Fire Tony Dungy. That's a good one.
