Tony Dungy's son found dead.

On a side note, how long before the networks start to pimp the Colts as a "Team of Destiny" because of this?

Sunday. 

[MadMarchHare]

The local TV networks are implying suicide, but all they really have is:

- it wasn't foul play.
- found unconscious and not breathing by g'friend at 1:30 AM.
- deputies responded and started CPR, unsuccessful.
- police gave "no comment" to suicide question.

Could be too much imbibing?

Today on ESPN.  My guess- Around the Horn.

My first thoughts went to accidental overdose.

todays PFT one liner was poorly timed. 

Tony Dungy  has a pulse, after all.

Thankfully that's been pulled off the site.

I can't imagine what Dungy is going through right now.  Jesus... losing a child at 18 like that.

Beyond tragic.

Parents nightmare..out living your children

Colts owner Bill Polian said that QB coach Jim Caldwell has taken over on an interim basis.  There is no time table on Dungy's return. 

I would imagine that Dungy will not coach this weekend against Seattle but may return for the final game against Arizona although I wouldn't be surprised if he took off the rest of the regular season.  His return prior to the playoffs is basically irrelevant at this point.

That's tough on a family, not matter the time of year but especially just before Christams.   Lost my dad at Christmas time when I was young.  Christmas has just never, ever been the same joyfull event....

[Don Ho]

This sucks.  What a downer.

Let's go Colts!  I really didn't care much about the playoffs this year for obivious reasons but I will be cheering for the Colts now.

First off, my heart goes out to Tony and his family. No one should have to bury a child, let alone a child so young.

He had a page at Myspace, and posted on one of his friend's pages yesterday that he was looking forward to his party, and his day was January 6th.

Someone said he's bipolar, but I don't know that it's true. If he was and went off his medicine or messed it up somehow, many bad things could happen.
