Title: Maybe Sparano misses his mentor. Post by: Pappy13 on December 22, 2010, 06:27:10 pm Here's a radical idea. Perhaps the recent troubles by Miami can be traced back further than Tony Sparano, perhaps it can be traced back to Bill Parcells. I was pretty happy with the direction of the team up until about 6 weeks ago. Is it just coincidence that Bill Parcells quit coming to the Dolphins facility shortly before that time? Perhaps Tony Sparano is missing his former mentor's presence a lot more than we first had imagined? Don't forget that Parcells used to roam the sideline during practices quite a bit and pull people aside from time to time to impart some wisdom. Could it be that Parcells had a bigger impact on the team than we thought? It sure does seem to me that the team has been going in a downward direction lately and that it seemed to start in that direction just shortly after Bill Parcells cleaned out his office for good.
Pure coincidence? Title: Re: Maybe Sparano misses his mentor. Post by: tubba marxxx on December 22, 2010, 06:47:09 pm Training wheels need to come off sometime

Post by: MikeO on December 22, 2010, 07:29:51 pm If Ross doesn't fire Sparano. And if Parcells is in charge at Minny in some form helping the Vikings hire a new head coach. Mike Nolan will be his man and he will be the next Vikings head coach. I would be a large sum of $$$ on that.
Parcells ONLY hires Parcells guys. And Nolan is pretty much one of the few Parcells guys out there who isn't a head coach who has the resume to take a spot like that. Romeo Crenell is too old. Weis is more of a Belichick guy than a Parcells. Nolan is pretty much it. |
