I'm glad we got Whiz when we did, there's getting to be a lot of competition for coaches.

Parcells retires from coaching after 9-7 season

After a trying season in Dallas, Bill Parcells is retiring from coaching.

"I am retiring from coaching football," Parcells said in a statement. "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."

The Cowboys finished a tumultuous season with a 9-7 record and lost in the NFC wild-card playoffs when a late field goal attempt went awry against the Seattle Seahawks.

"I am in good health and feel lucky to have been able to coach in the NFL for an extended period of time," Parcells said. "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."

Hmmmm this could corraspond well.

If Dallas can wait 12 more days until after the Super Bowl then they can talk to Rivera. They could also take Russ Grimm since he isn't coming back to Pittsburgh.

Buttttttttt...knowing Jerry Jones...the man has more aces up his sleve then the Boys had criminals.
