What recent NFL media news sparked the discussion?
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast. Big media news yesterday in the NFL world. I like media news. I like that kind of stuff. I don't know. It's a little bit niche. Yeah! I, I, I, I'm, yeah, I like it. And yesterday I saw, and this comes on the heels of the whole Belichick Hall of Fame fiasco. Tony Dungy, out at Football Night of America. How about that? I read that, and Tony Dungy seems like a nice man. I've never understood his role, what makes him a compelling broadcaster. He seems really nice and also really polarizing. Yes. Well, he's been doing it for a really long time where you're kind of looking around like, how long has Tony Dungy been on TV? And does he add anything? I don't really remember anything that he said.
In fact, his moment on TV was kind of getting yelled at by Rodney Harrison. I'm like, all right, that's good. If his role is to be yelled at, I think I'm in on this. But usually these studio shows, they cycle through these talents. And he'd been doing it for close to 15 years. At a certain point, what makes you keep that job? So Dave, what Mike is referencing there, you remember this, the last time we saw Tony Dungy on television, this was ahead of the Super Bowl, and Rodney Harrison dressed him down over the Belichick situation.
which is any list that doesn't include bill belichick at the top is absolutely wrong and a lot of those players that we mentioned they're great players i played with drew brees i played with adam denatary but there's nobody more deserving to be in that hall of fame than coach belichick i've seen his greatness he i've seen him design defenses to stop your offense and um you just look at the players that he's impacted he's been unbelievable and when i look out
throughout the hall of fame and even a guy like tom brady tom brady wouldn't be tom brady without bill belichick and that's the disappointing part of it coach and you guys got it wrong i don't think i'm i don't think i'm speaking out of term when i say rodney harrison i believe is legitimately dressing down tony dungy there because if you were just talking about belichick and the whole situation with belichick not having made the hall of fame I feel like he would have turned to the camera a couple times where he's like, he's talking to America. He's talking to the audience here.
Why was Tony Dungy let go from Football Night in America?
He is straight up telling him, you're wrong, player. Yeah, well, he said two things. One is, shut down your offense, right? That's a direct one, not a generic, oh, he shut down great offense, he shut down your offense. And two is, you guys got it wrong. And so that's, I don't know. And Dungy refuses to admit which way he voted, right? He still has not admitted.
How do Philip Rivers and Jay Cutler fit into NBC's plans?
This is, I don't like this. I don't like this part of it. The idea that if you didn't do it, that you should just say, I didn't do it. It wasn't me. Like, It doesn't necessarily mean that he voted against Belichick. Right, but you know what it implies, though. You got it wrong implies you and whoever it is that you voted like got it wrong. No, but Dungy not admitting it. I understand what you're saying where Dungy, look, he's trying to do the admirable thing where, no, no, even if I voted that way, I still wouldn't tell you because I believe in not sharing the vote. But in this situation, we all know not sharing which way you vote means, Tony, you know all of us now believe you didn't vote for Belichick.
He could have corrected that. What is curious to me, first of all, did Rodney Harrison, Rodney Harrison, likely the producer says to him, the pregame producer says, hey, guys, we're going to talk about the Belichick thing. And obviously, Coach Dungy, you are one of are a part of the committee. And Rodney, you're raw about this. So this should be a pretty good conversation. They're coached up. for the conversation did rodney harrison say to the producer otherwise i'm gonna go at dungy here is that okay with everybody i bet you he did bet you he didn't just go just didn't go in on his own like that big shocker everybody i'm going after my colleague i bet you got sign off and and if that's true
