Bill Parcells has had enough


Well folks, everyone knew it was coming. Would the Big Tuna honor the final year of his contract with the Cowboys or had he had enough of coaching an underachieving team and dealing with TO the Media Whore? After only a week, the decision seemed fairly simple. Bill Parcells didn’t need more money, he didn’t need another year of padding his hall of fame resume and he certainly didn’t need any more headaches.

In a statement, Parcells said:

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.

The look on Parcells’ face during the entire season (even sometimes during the Cowboys winning streak) seemed to indicate that he had had enough of this coaching business. Parcells has always ripped into players and let them know if they did something wrong on the field. This year, he seemed to just give it a half-hearted effort and went back to looking frustrated and annoyed rather than fired up and angry.

Perhaps Adam Schefter would like to change his story published two days ago about Parcells staying put?
