NFL fans are not happy with Tony Dungy's appearance on the Super Bowl 60 broadcast. It seems like one of his coworkers isn't happy, either.
Dungy, a Pro Football Hall of Fame coach for the Colts, has yet to reveal if he voted for Bill Belichick. The iconic Patriots coach, who won six Super Bowls, missed out on the Hall of Fame in Year 1 on the ballot.
“First of all, we don’t know that they didn’t get inducted in the Hall of Fame,” said Dungy, when asked by Ryan Glasspiegel at Super Bowl Radio Row this week. “I’m a voter. I have not heard who’s in or who’s out, so I’m not going to make a comment on it and speculate. We’ll find out, I think, on Thursday who’s in and who’s out.”
Dungy doubled down on his refusal to answer.
“I said I’m not going to make a comment on it until we find out who’s in and who’s out,” he said.

On Sunday, during the Super Bowl 60 pregame show, Dungy was ripped by his coworker, former Patriots star Ronnie Harrison.
"Any list that doesn't include Bill Belichick at the top is absolutely wrong," he said.
"There's nobody more deserving to be in that Hall of Fame than Coach Belichick. I've seen his greatness, I've seen him design defenses to stop your offenses. You just look at the players he's impacted, he's been incredible."
"You guys got it wrong."
NFL fans want Dungy removed
"Dungy is pathetic," one fan wrote.
"Good for Rodney Harrison pushing back on Tony Dungy and this only 3 slots excuse for Hall of Fame voters. If Belichick wasn't the number one slot on every voters card they are biased. The guy has been part of 8 Superbowls (⅐)," one fan added.
"Get Dungy out of there," another fan added.
"Just lost ALL respect for Tony Dungy! Blaming the format for Bill Belichick not getting into the hall of fame and not the committee! Complete trash," one fan added.
Super Bowl 60, meanwhile, will kick off at 6:30 p.m. E.T. on Sunday night. The game will air live on nBC.
