Does Parcells fool anybody anymore?

[Wood]

I watched his PC and one minute he doesn't want to talk about history (past games) then 5 minutes later he is talking about the Detroit game. Then he says he basically has no control over mind set of players...then 5 minutes later he says he can still motivate players. This guy is all over the place and its clear to me he is no longer in control of this team.

He said he goes in every week trying to get them prepared to play the next game. He can't make everyone happy or pumped up. He can give them a gameplan and coach them up and tell them everything that needs to be done. Eventually the players themselves have to light a spark and get excited.

As for the history stuff, he wanted to talk about Seattle. There's no point in discussing the past 5 games. I agree with him. It sure would be nice if the press would actually ask some substantive questions about Seattle. He basically told them things where different from Detroit to Seattle, but no one follows up. No one asks, "Well what do you do differently?" No one asks the real questions, they just kept wanting to talk about the past 5 games. That's not news.

His arrogance bothers me... He feels that the media are all idiots that are out to get him. All he has to do is win, and if he does they'll get off his back. Its that simple. The losses lately have been soley on the coaching staff, especially defensively.

Have you heard the questions these people ask? They are idiots.

This is very true.

Asking about his relationship with Mike Holmgren? What the hell?

Well thats their jobs and I've heard some of their ignorance, but BP seems to always be pointing the finger at the players. At no point this year have I heard him blame anyone on the coaching staff. Our offensive playcalling is pretty good, but defensively it seems like Zimmer is totally confused.

from the poll i took yesterday, about 1/3 of the people still believe in bp.

He fooled me into thinking this team was a hardcore contender again (we'll see - I think weve still got a chance) after I gave up in October.

Actually, it was probably that darn adorable Tony Romo and his backward cap that probably fooled me, more than Parcells.

After the eagles game

Bill Parcells....."I didn't have them ready to play" What do you call that?
The players play. Bill didn't drop one pass this season, didn't miss one tackle,
didn't throw one int, didn't drop possible int's or cause one penalty.

Ok so one penalty.

I got sucked in too, the hat will do it. Hypothetically speaking I'd like to see what Bill Belichick could do with the talent that we have.

He's fooling JJ if he is back next year.

No offense, but if you haven't heard him take blame or him place blame on the coaching staff, you're not listening. He says week in and week out after losses that he didn't have them prepared for the game. He said during today's press conference that you try to get them prepared and if it doesn't work you try to figure what more you can do to get them prepared.

Could you type slower for me please? I'd like to get a word in once in awhile.
