Bill Parcells to Retire
NFL ^

Posted on 01/22/2007 9:10:19 AM PST by slowhand520

Parcells retiring after four seasons in Dallas

Statement from Cowboys coach Bill Parcells

"I am retiring from coaching football. I want to thank Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones for their tremendous support over the last four years. Also, the players, my coaching staff and others in the support group who have done so much to help. Dallas is a great city and the Cowboys are an integral part of it. I am hopeful that they are able to go forward from here.

"I am in good health and feel lucky to have been able to coach in the NFL for an extended period of time. I leave the game and the NFL with nothing but good feelings and gratitude to all the players, coaches and other people that have assisted me in that regard."

It's probably best, given his medical history. Hasn't he had some problems with his heart?

I would not be surprised if the Cowboys go after Bob Stoops at Oklahoma.

There are rumors that Jerry Jones has had his eye on Stoops for some time.

Parcells has nothing to prove to anyone and it is time for him to lower his blood pressure and enjoy a new chapter in life.

Best wishes to ya!

You know, if Jones hired an African-American head coach, he could leech a little media attention away from the Super Bowl.

The Cow fans love T.O. And he brings Jones the media attention that he craves.
