And the similarities run deeper than physical appearance. Tony Dungy: The first African-American coach to win the super bowl in the National Football League. Barack Obama: (will be) the first African-American president of the United States of America. Also, both have been accused of not "really" being black, or not being "black enough." (Obama more publicly than Dungy, but I definitely heard people question Dungy's "blackness," especially when comparing him to head coach Lovie Smith - head coach of the Chicago Bears - the team beaten by Tony Dungy's Indianapolis Colts in Superbowl XLI.)
Okay, so those are the only real similarities I could dig up, but I think it's still pretty rad. And if their similarities are any sign of things to come, then we can get even more excited about Obama's upcoming success as our president. As head coach of the Indianapolis Colts, Tony Dungy's regular season record consists of 76 wins, and only 26 losses. That means that Dungy's Colts have won 74.5% of their regular season games. That's pretty spectacular. Dungy is currently in his seventh season with the Colts, and of the six completed seasons, the Colts won their division five times, taking second only once. Also spectacular.
So there you have it. Tony Dungy proves hands down that Barack Obama is the correct choice for president. :) Just ignore the fact that Tony Dungy is socially conservative...

Tony Dungy kind of looks like the bat on Fern Gully. Then again, so does Barack. He rocks like an animal, but he's a mammal. Go Colts!! Go Barack!!!! Yes, they all can!
