Tony Dungy - others who St. Tony can help

Tony Dungy was instrumental in helping Michael Vick get back into the NFL...since Dungy has become the Father Flanagan of the league, why should he stop with Vick...the media will never question Dungy because they believe he is a fair, good person...Dungy represents everything that is good...so why can't Father Tony help the following downtrodden:...

- Matt Jones - Jones was arrested for cocaine and later nailed again for alcohol...the NFL gave him the boot...like Vick, Jones is still in his prime and in fact, he is only 26-years-old, three years younger than Vick...the guy made a mistake and wants a second chance...why isn't Dungy volunteering to help Jones get that second chance?...hmmmm, makes you wonder...

- Marvin Harrison, Derrick Brooks, and Warrick Dunn - these players are just looking for a job in the NFL...Dungy coached all three players, so maybe he can make a few calls and see if he can get them another shot in the league...if the Philadelphia Eagles were willing to take a shot with Vick, I am sure Dungy can work his magic and have someone give Dunn a chance...especially since Dunn is an outstanding person in the community and has a big heart in helping people...

- Art Modell - if Modell did not move the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore, he would be in the Hall of Fame by now...there is a clear bias against Modell, especially from the Cleveland media...Dungy needs to sit down with the Hall of Fame voters and ask them to forgive Modell and consider him for enshrinement...if Vick electrocuted and slaughtered dogs and got a second chance, why not Modell?...

- Plaxico Burress - Plax can get a jumpstart on his return to the NFL by aligning himself with St. Tony right now...just by having Dungy as a "spiritual advisor" will basically ensure Plax of getting back in the league in two years...

- Pete Rose - Pete's big mistake is that he is not aligning himself with Dungy...Pete needs to call Dungy and ask for his help...I'm sure after one or two meetings, Dungy will be able to determine that Pete is a good man...then Dungy can speak on Pete's behalf to commissioner Bud Selig...

- North Korea - it is a little late for this, but I wonder if President Obama considered Dungy to mediate the release of the two American journalists who were held in North Korea...Bill Clinton got the job, but maybe Obama should have had Dungy assist Clinton on this mission...
