Dolphins In Depth I never gave any thought to him leaving. & I agree he will stay. **Armando changed the title & some of the content in his story after I posted this just to make me look bad. Hahaha. My comments refer to the story as originally titled & written.**
I just heard that on NFL countdown as well.....I'm stunned... Tuna can collect 9 million, and sign wherever he wishes. The guy they mentioned who could replace Tuna is...Carl Peterson... I feel mildly nauseous now.
yea I dont think hes that money hungry to take the money and run. If he does I will lose a lot of respect for him.
nah...where else would parcells have unlimited power like he does here? no meddling owners or show-you-up GMs/Coaches to worry about. i dont see any advantages for Parcells to leave here.
Yeah, I think he'll want to see the fruits of his labors here a little before he goes. Plus he's got all "his guys" here.
Jeez... i just heard some crap on fax that parcells might be leaving us for the lions because wayne is selling the team and that voids his contract?!?!?!.. jeez... Hopefully thats not the case at all.
Not worried about a Parcells departure. He already set up this team and I trust Sparano and Ireland. Only downside to him leaving would be who from our current staff he would poach.
Leave it to Mando to try and have a black cloud hover over the Dolphins on the biggest game of their season.
Until he says that he is leaving, I won't believe any reports. The whole Lions thing just sounds made up.
This " news " is about 10 months old. The talk about the clause in his contract that allows him to walk part anyways,,,, Jason Cole reported that last february..........
He would need to get a 3 mil per season raise to stay IMO He is owed that 9 mil now that Wayne has sold. Ross needs to give him the 9 and give him a new contract We need Bill for more than 1 season
Yep ,, Bill's a very smart a very smart rich man..........That was also reported by Cole last year. Huizenga was sick of losing and just made a bad business decision, after all he's just a big a fan of the Dolphins as we are , and did whatever he could to fix the team.
Isn't Parcell's position created just for him? I don't necessarily think we would hire a replacement.
Here's some more about it ProFootballTalk.com - PARCELLS LEAVING THE FINS? From the way this sounds about Bill wanting this out there now,reminds of the lil girl fit he had in New England on the Super Bowl week back in the 90's. He's never been above being a destacion to his team late in the year if he's not happy.
Boy there are some NY types that just want to make sure to rain on the Miami Dolphins parade. Geeesh.....Parcells is not leaving....PERIOD. This is NY media trying to stir it up to make Magina and the NY GM feel the heat.
I see it as a 50/50 right now. With what Bill has done with this team this year I can see him getting the same deal (with a raise) from the new owner. He also miht be a bit salty after having Hunzeiga tell him that he has no plans to sell the team to his face. Parcells took this job because he got the keys to the fararri and trusted Wayne to let him do what heneeds to do. I can see him leaving if he has doubts as to whether he'll get that same treatment from the new owner.
I really hope he doesn't leave, but I think Ireland and Sparano have done the day to day work. As long as we keep them, I am happy.
It could really come down to Ross & how he approaches the situation. Parcells may very well be in the same position with Ross as with Wayne H. Maybe better.
This is only became news cuzzz BP told Chris Mortensen to make it news, any time you have heard Chris Mortensen talk about Bill or his teams for the past 20 years his source has always been Bill himself. But your right Bill Parcells is a New York type and that's why the Jet's are 1st on his list. He's never showed any loyalty to any other team so why would he start now?
UMM ANYWHERE! Honestly if we make it into the playoffs he can get 20 Million a year from Detroit or someone else. He took a 1-15 team and might make them playoff bound with very little free agency signing's.. Honestly this is the worst thing for miami from a Bill perspective. With a new owner coming in the team being sold who knows what bill's ego wants.. I hope he want's to stick it to the AFC east and retire in Miami..
Lets hope Wayne made it perfectly clear Bill is the man and had assurances even before the sell was made! Also if your a new owner why the hell would you not trust BILL to get it done, no one else can touch him right now..
Exactly the kind of crap Armondo loves to involve himself with - distraction and negativity. Here we are coming off of 1-15 and a chance to win our division and go 11-5 and all he can think to write about is Parcells leaving. What a douche bag.
ESPN said Chris Mortensen broke this news right? Remember when he said Ronnie Brown was on the trading block...? Remember how that went...?
Man, I just hope he doesn't do us like Saban did with all the drama and whatnot. Just let us know yes or no so that we can plan accordingly.
