When it's over, it's over is part of football's greatest appeal to me. When a game ends, win or lose, it's time to prepare for the next one.
Tony Dungy
Things will go wrong at times. You can't always control your attitude, approach, and response. You options are to complain or to look ahead and figure out how to make the situation better
Tony Dungy
Everything's not going to go perfect. You're going to have some losses that you're going to have to bounce back from and some things that are a little unforeseen that you're going to have to deal with.
Tony Dungy
The best solution for falling just short of the goal is to focus on the fundamentals but perform them better.

What's important is not the accolades and memories of success but the way you respond when opportunities are denied.
Tony Dungy
When I was young, I didn't like to read. I would have much rather been outside doing something than been inside reading about it.
