HISTORY IS MADE AS TWO AFRICAN AMERICANS (BLACKS) COACH THEIR TEAMS TO NFL SUPERBOWL.

History was made today as two National Football League (NFL) African Americans (Blacks) coach their respective teams to the XLI Superbowl game on February 4th, in Miami. The coaches are Lovie Smith, who is now being loved by the NFC champion Chicago Bears (and their fans) who "shuffled" past the "Saints" from new Orleans, and Tony Dungy, who galloped his AFC champion Indianapolis Colts (and their fans) past the Patriotic New Englanders, for a spot at the historic game. This is very important to African Americans and every equality loving American reading this post because I can still remember all the talk about people of color not having what it takes (whatever that means) to be Head Coaches -- just the same kind of talk we still hear about African American (Black) Quarterbacks (quieted now since Doug Williams led his Washington Redskins to a Superbowl win), and just the same kind of talk one hears about African Americans (Blacks) everywhere else outside of sports and even in State Governments and Corporate America. So equality at last, you ask? Maybe not, but it is with GREAT elation that I will party on February 4th, like it's 1999. Talking about 1999, guess who will be singing at Superbowl half time? Yep, Prince, of course. He is one of my favorite singers (though he can be naughty at times) who wrote the music to -- and sang the lyrics for -- the chart bursting song "1999".
