I got an e-mail from a friend today about the Colt’s victory prayer after the Super Bowl. While I don’t think my friend meant any harm, there was a comment attached to the e-mail saying, “I DIDN’T SEE THIS ON THE NEWS – DID YOU??????”
A quick Google search shows that despite the e-mail’s comments, the event was reported in the media — USA Today to be exact.
After victory, Dungy and Colts pray before they party
MIAMI — Suddenly, in the middle of the celebration that had the locker room buzzing after the Indianapolis Colts’ Super Bowl XLI victory, Tony Dungy had an announcement.
They were not leaving Dolphin Stadium without one more piece of business.
A prayer.
Dungy had the TV cameras in the room shut off. The interviews with maybe a dozen reporters still lingering stopped. The pictures players were snapping of each other holding the Lombardi Trophy needed to wait.
It’s a cool story, worth sharing but just wanted to clear up the contridiction — someone found the picture through Getty Images (Bill Gates owned) or USA Today before they were able to mass e-mail it.
