Thank God


Recommended Posts

This guy has always been an a-hole and a quitter, and I thank God we'll never have to see his circus in Atlanta. I'm sure Blank is counting his lucky stars that Parcell's bolted for Miami.

I know he has a history of building a winner, but he also has a history of being a quitter, and I can't stand quitters.

Parcells departure from Dolphins could be imminent

Posted by Mike Florio on October 10, 2010 5:35 PM ET

When former Dolphins V.P. of football operations Bill Parcells stepped out of his job and into a consulting role before the regular season started, the next question became when, not if, Parcells will leave the team completely.

You could have asked the same question the day he was hired.

Though Parcells remains unpredictable and could change his mind at any time (and then change it back again), signs currently are pointing to an imminent departure.

Parcells has the ability to leave the team at any time, and to collect the balance of a contract that runs through 2011. He also has the ability to work for another team while still getting paid by the Dolphins.

He joined the Dolphins after a horrendous 1-15 season in 2007, with a clause in his contract that gave him the ability to leave the team and collect the balance of his pay if then-owner Wayne Huizenga sold his controlling interest in the team. When Huizenga sold to Stephen Ross, Parcells renegotiated the deal to allow him to leave at any time and to cash out the balance of the contract.

Dodged a bullet there and with Singletary who is getting crazier by the moment.

When I look around the league and teams that are afraid to commit to a qb, like the browns we just played. I realize that one of the first moves TD did was a potential career ending move. He could have played it safe and went for defense but he came out of gate, grabbed Ryan, and announced he was our guy. That took a lot of guts for someone who has never been a GM. If he had been wrong I doubt Blank was going to patient for long.

MM said "I'd take him at three." One of the coaches said it anyway, after a meeting with Ryan prior to the draft.

I love that statement.

Why would any employer agree to something like that?!!
