Parcells set the media straight on TO

[Reality]

From the InmanRoshi 8/8 Press Conference Recap:

Reporter: Does this cloud your evaluation of him?

Parcells: I’m just trying to get the best players on the team that I can. I’m trying to integrate this player into the system. Right now we can’t, but when we can I will do it that way. In the meantime, I get the sense that the media is just waiting for controversy. I’m here to tell you, you’re not going to get it from me. So get that in your head. Don’t use ambiguous words like “clouded” and expect me to respond to it.

I'm glad he finally told them that so maybe they will get off the "sky is falling" train they've been riding on since TC started.

They will just try another angle, I mean they are still trying to say Jerry and Bill will never work 4years later LOL .

The Haters on this board will just say that Parcells was being a jerk and did not want to answer the question .......

All Parcells did was re-affirm his legendary status with one simple quote. Whatever you might say about the team's lack of achievement during the last couple of years, you have to love the way the guy can set the media straight.

Maybe the same reason why Sean Taylor isn't suspended

heh i was just joking around, but i do want to know what youre referring to since no one knows why Taylor wasnt suspended.

Actually, he did, if you pay attention.

The Ticket is making a great point ... even if TO played, how many series/plays would he have played? One maybe 2. The guy is 32 years old. There is no need for him to get any more wear and tear on his body than necessary. He is in excellent physical condition and he's a vet. It probably won't take him about 2 games for him and Bledsoe to get their chemistry togehter. (I don't agree with that last part.)

 

[SkinsandTerps]

I think Parcells fuels the fire by this response.

Seems to me that the media will try to dig deeper through player interviews and such.

 

[zrinkill]

Who cares ...... the only one who listens to them anymore are those who want Parcells/T.O./Bledsoe to fail.

 

[J-DOG]

ESPN is joke now.
Thier top story is the controversy in Dallas.
Mike Greenberg is all hot and bothered about the TO controversy.
John Clayton is saying that signing Freddie Mitchell is a real possibility.
Clayton is so bad.
He's had every FA signing with us at one time or another.
Yo....every person who is a member of this great board I want to tell you something...What's going on today with the media and TO/Parcells is the perfect example of the media making news instead of reporting it.

I wanted to stab your hand with a fork for trying to leave bait on the table.

uhhh what?

Poor Tuna. Another clumsy attempt at damage control. He knows he has a massive distraction on his hands, but doesn't want to give the media any satisfaction--as if they're the real problem. The media doesn't have to manufacture controversy; TO does it all by himself.

 

[icyhot]

uhhh what?

In other words i wanted to stop you before you try to start something
