I enjoyed the football parts but also the history of his family. His father faced a lot of obstacles but pushed through. No excuses! And that inspires me.

What a great look inside the life of the Coach Dungy’s coaching principles and God-honoring lifestyle!

With the help of Nathan Whitaker - a personal friend of the Dungys, Coach Dungy has written an amazing account of his life up-through the Colts’ Super Bowl win last year! Reading through much of the history of this great NFL coach and seeing how God has continued to be his focus throughout his adult life, it is encouraging to cheer on Coach Dungy and “my” Indianapolis Colts.

The book is exciting for my football-loving mind, too, in that it reads occasionally like a play-by-play of some of the high-profile games I sat on the edge of my seat during. To read those same plays coming from the coach of the team I was cheering for brings a new angle and excitement.

I recommend this book to any Colts fan AND/OR to anyone looking to read about a person who puts his faith in Christ first before his career - and how that faith interweaves throughout his dealings in life!

Coach Dungy is a hero in my book - even before reading his book! ( )

This amazing book was read in one sitting, albeit on a flight from LA to Detroit. I'll admit that being a sports nut and a Pittsburgh Steeler's fan / fanatic helped me a lot in enjoying the book. My wife who is not a sports fan put it down after one chapter. This book is a must read for any person that struggles with the balance of religion and sports. Tony Dungy is a tremendous example of how to life life to its fullest in the sports world. ( )

it was about how it felt to win the super bowl and he was talking about his child hood and thing like that. ( )

I liked Dungy more after reading this than before. A good guy. One of the most amusing anecdotes concerns his Minnesota college team playing Ohio State in the '80s. OSU came out on the field for warmups and Dungy thought, "hey, they don't look so big." It turned out that those were just the skill position players, and the behemoths had not yet come on field.
