TUNA SURPRISE: PARCELLS OUT IN BIG D
A league source tells us that Cowboys coach Bill Parcells resigned his position on Friday night after a lengthy meeting with owner Jerry Jones regarding the decision to sign receiver Terrell Owens. Parcells, who signed an extension last season, was angered by the acquisition of Owens. The veteran coach, we hear, told Jones that Owens had not changed and should not be signed. Parcells became livid after Owens' book deal was announced, which happened less than two days after Owens was introduced as a member of the organization. Butch Davis is the leading candidate to replace Parcells. Davis was the Cowboys' defensive coordinator in the early 1990s, and he served with Jimmy Johnson's two Super Bowl teams. For Parcells, his coaching career is likely over after stints as the top dog with the Giants, Patriots, Jets, and Cowboys. |

C'mon, Like Parcells would leave all that cash on the table. He would find a way for Jerry to buy him out......

Well at least you did not say Gibbs retired. That would be sad.

Re: Can this be Real?
April Fools works so much better when it's more subtle. A couple of years ago, someone here posted a thread about draft prospects -- one of whom, amazingly, clocked in at an astonishing 3.8 something in the 40-yard dash.

This, however, is a rumor making the rounds that he MIGHT call it quits due to the owens fiasco. There are no truth to any of the PFT stories posted this morning. |

Or is it? http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm POSTED 9:58 a.m. EST; UPDATED 12:13 p.m. EST, April 1, 2006 PARCELLS RETIREMENT RUMORS FLY Even though the lead item of our annual April Fool's edition regarding the resignation of Cowboys coach Bill Parcells is phony, we're hearing rumors that Parcells might indeed pack it in after three years with the Cowboys. The catalyst for the speculation is the addition of former Eagles receiver Terrell Owens, which might have occurred without the input or over the objection of the head coach. Parcells has said nothing about the arrival of Owens, and Parcells was the only coach who blew off the ownership meetings in Florida this week. His absence has fueled talk that he's very unhappy with the signing of Owens, and that Parcells doesn't want to have to talk about the situation to the media, or to anyone else. The deeper problem here is that the events of the past two weeks have created the impression that Parcells has no say in what goes on with his team. For a guy like Parcells, who plops more football knowledge into the porcelain every day that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones ever will acquire, the notion of being undermined publicly is the last thing he deserves, especially as his coaching career moves into its final days. |
