Census Bureau Black History Month Feature for Tuesday, February 3
WASHINGTON-(Business Wire)-February 3, 2009 - Profile America for the third day of Black History Month. A coach in the National Football League has to earn the respect of his players and fashion a winning team while operating under pressure from the fans, the media and the club owner. One man who has accomplished this balancing act is Tony Dungy, who retired in January after seven seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, and won Super Bowl 41 against Chicago. A star college quarterback at Minnesota, Dungy was the NFL’s youngest assistant coach at the age of 25 in Pittsburgh, then went to Tampa Bay as head coach. The Colts are one of 32 teams in the NFL, whose games are witnessed by more than 22 million fans each year. This special edition of Profile America for Black History Month is a public service of the U.S. Census Bureau.
