Tony Dungy Visiting Lovie Smith and Chicago Bears
If you’re staking out Halas Hall (and who isn’t?) and see former Indianapolis Head Coach Tony Dungy around 1920 Football Drive, don’t get overly excited, thinking a new regime is coming to the Bears. Dungy will be meeting with former pupils Lovie Smith and Rod Marinelli for a little Cover-2 Jamboree. Here’s Lovie on the visit:
"“We’re just going to talk football for a day,” Smith said. “There aren’t a whole lot of us still in our system who believe in it the way we do. We’re pumped up about him coming.”"
That quote just makes me think of the scene in the original Star Wars where they question Darth Vader’s devotion to The Force:
Can you picture Lovie, with his Sandy Texas drawl busting out a “I find your lack of disturbing”??? Me neither. Lovie would probably give a standard, monotone answer about the data tapes at the Imperial press conference. “We’ll have to look at the tape and we’ll go from there.”
May The Force Be With You, Lovie.
