America Needs More Unapologetic Christians Like Tony Dungy

Former NFL head coach Tony Dungy made his first-ever appearance at the March for Life in Washington, D.C. on Friday, and predictably, Twitter’s leftist blue checkmark brigade is out in full force demanding he be canceled for it.

After tweeting Dungy had announced that he and his wife were attending the annual gathering for pro-lifers on Thursday morning. But Dungy, a outspoken Christian, was soon the victim of left-wing activists disguised as journalists. Within hours of Dungy’s announcement, The Nation’s sports editor, Dave Zirin, published an article accusing the co-host of NBC’s “Football Night in America” Of being a “right-wing zealot” “anti-gay bigot.”

“Dungy should feel shame. Instead, he is emboldened, ready to take the stage at a rally that’s been a blunt instrument for robbing people of their rights to privacy and the rights to their own bodies,” Zirin wrote, adding that NBC and the NFL’s “silence speaks volumes. It’s a silence that’s … almost as loud as the thousands of people descending upon Washington—some mandatorily—to celebrate a fascistic, discredited Supreme Court and the loss of our rights.”

Keith Olbermann, a former sportswriter and grown man-child, decided to add his irrelevant opinion to the mix. He called for NBC Sports’ firing of Dungy for attending the annual sporting event.

“Dear @nbcsports – if you have any remaining concern for your operational reputation, fire Tony Dungy now. He is using you,” Olbermann demanded In melodramatic fashion.

Dungy spoke in front of pro-lifers at March, Dungy evoked the collapse of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, specifically pointing to the power of prayer and God’s use of football “to shine some light on the subject of life for all of us.”

“An unbelievable thing happened that night. A professional football game with millions of dollars of ticket money and advertising money on the line – that game was canceled. Why? Because a life was at stake, and people wanted to see that life saved,” Dungy stated. “That should be encouraging to us, because that’s exactly why we’re here today because every day in this country, innocent lives are at stake. The only difference is they don’t belong to a famous athlete, and they’re not seen on national TV. But those lives are still important to God and in God’s eyes.”

The backlash against his appearance at this year’s March for Life rally isn’t the first time Dungy has faced hatred from miserable leftists over his religious views. In 2018, Dungy, the ex-Colts head coach at Indianapolis, was criticised for not being a good example of a Christian leader. saying on live television that then-Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles would play well in the Super Bowl “because his Christian
