Word on the street is that Dungy's getting in was nothing but a PC move? Did he really deserve it?
He won a total of 149 games as head coach (reg. season and playoffs), was on two Super Bowl champion teams both as a player and head coach (XIII and XLI), was part of constructing Tampa Bay's Super Bowl champion team, and was innovator of the Tampa 2 defense with Monte Kiffen that is widely employed throughout the NFL.
Those are HOF worthy accomplishments if you ask me.

In all honesty, Dungy probably didn't deserve it. Quite a bit easier getting in the NFL hall than it is in the MLB hall.

Ok, I don't get it. Exactly why is electing Tony Dungy to HOF the politically correct thing to do?Word on the street is that Dungy's getting in was nothing but a PC move? Did he really deserve it?

If Warren Moon is a hall of famer than so is Tony Dungy
Baseball hall of fame was also established 27 years before the NFL Hall of Fame.There are 310 members of the MLB HOF, more than the 303 in the NFL HOF. MLB has existed for longer than the NFL, but there are also more than twice as many active NFL players than active MLB players at any given time.

I give up, what's the connection?
No connection just saying if Moon's contribution's to football are hall of fame worthy, than Dungy is a worthy hall of famer. Moon was at best a slightly above average qb, Dungy was a very good to great coach. I mean if Warren Moon's in might as well put Doug freakin Flutie in too
I'll concede that Flutie is an actual bad comparison that was more for shock value, when was Warren Moon an elite QB. HOF to me is Marino, Elway, Kelly, Aikman, Young, Montana, Favre, when was Warren Moon ever in their class? Also accomplished CFL player, that's like being an accomplished Korean League baseball player. If were going to honor CFL careers wouldn't that make the midget of BC's case even stronger?I don't really get where you're coming from on this. Warren Moon was a far, far better NFL QB than Doug Flutie. On the NFL Career Approximate Value metric at Pro Football Reference, he's 36th all-time, tied with Terrell Owens, Randall McDaniel and Jason Taylor and ahead of many other no-doubt HOFers like Ronnie Lott, Deion Sanders, Aaron Rodgers, etc. It's also important to remember that it's the Pro Football Hall of Fame, not the NFL Hall of Fame, and Moon was an accomplished CFL player for several years before coming to the NFL. I've never heard anyone question Moon's HOF credentials - it's pretty bizarre, actually.

Let me guess, the name of the street is, Bias street.Word on the street is that Dungy's getting in was nothing but a PC move? Did he really deserve it?
