What do you think about this BP prediction?

This comment is taken from another forum by a historic BP hater:

52444.1

...after 3 seasons, my suspicions have been confirmed--bill parcells simply doesn't fit in. he doesn't BELONG here in dallas coaching the team. i think even he is realizing this fact.

if he wants to continue coaching, he really needs to consider taking one of the upcoming east coast jobs--the jets, detroit (east enough), etc. he'll be closer to his family. and quite honestly, at 64 years of age, he MUST be evaluating what matters in life. how could he not?

people are speculating he's pondering life after the death of his brother. i think he's pondering being away from the family he has left--his daughters and grandchildren. again, how could he not?

at 64, he must be asking himself, "...what in the h#ll am i doing out here in texas, all alone. totally isolated from all friends and family. yes, the players mean alot to him...but only a naive person takes this "family" talk as it relates to athletes too seriously--NO TEAMMATE or player takes the place of a real loved one. i don't buy that for a second.

the anecdotal evidence that parcell's is leaving is overwhelming--he behaves as if he is TOTALLY MISERABLE. win or lose. this guy is just NOT a happy human being. i realize this is also his nature, but not to this degree. this guy has ALL the signs of a person who WANTS TO BE SOMEWHERE ELSE. he should be accomodated. not in a mean or cruel way. but in a respectful way.

i have never been excited about his hiring--any joy i expressed was in the fact we were at least getting a REAL coach. but his positive impact in undeniable...the luster to the hc job in dallas is totally restored. we can now get any coach we want. jerry is in his proper place. he brought in drew henson--despite never playing him. he upgraded the young talent overall. having said all that, he still didn't get the job done...fob's failed him. but he will leave this team in better condition than he found it--not many can say this.

and finally, i don't think parcell's wants to make the TOUGH decisions coming up with meshawn "i'm a johnson" and drew bledsoe. both of these guys--especially meshawn--are ready for supporting actor roles. neither can carry a team anymore.

i fully expect parcells to quit after this season--playoffs or not. he's miserable. he should be. he doesn't belong here. he belongs back HOME--close to his loved ones. anyone who thinks they care about parcells the person should want the same for him.

I think Bill stay around for a while longer. I think most of what you wrote is utter non-sense

And this team has been so good prior to BP? Look love him or hate him he has us in games again. Do you remeber sitting through Campo games? How about the other puppets JJ brought in?

Man, be careful what you wish for because you may get some in here changing things up AGAIN and starting from the ground floor taking away ANY progress BP has made.

Conservative play caling and all he is by far better then the Campo and other puppet days...

How can this yo-yo post this non sence. We are what we are now because of BP drafting, etc... IT WAS NOT WORKING PRIOR WAS IT?

I did not write it another poster in another forum whom I consistently argue with did.

5-11 or 10-6 it really doesn't matter when come playoff time you're sitting at home now does it?

Going from non-competitive to being a competitive team does count for something. Yes the goal is to get into the playoffs and make a run at the SB but I don't think turning a team around would be considered a complete failure. I know all the fans will be disappointed if we fail to make the playoffs and I'm sure the players, coaches and organization will be disappointed as well but there are many positives this team can take with them heading into the off-season.

The whole deal about being closer to family is nonsense. It's not like he would be going home to the grandkids every night if he coached in the north east. My guess is he wouldn't see them any more than he does now. Aside from that, the guy has all the money he needs and an entire off-season every year to spend where ever he likes. I'm not saying Parcells won't bail, but if he does, it won't be because he lives too far from his family..

So your telling me you had the same feelings during the 5-11 season's as you do this year? This team is far different then Campo's teams, there is now hope. We finish games. You know if it is Superbowl or nothing to you then you should probably wait until Jan to watch football. A football season is what makes a team....

Almost sounds bandwagonish if it is superbowl or nothing. Look, I support my team ALWAYS!!

The post is garbage. Complete garbage.

BP has fit in beautifully in Dallas. Everyone said he couldn't get along with JJ. He has. In fact he was too gracious with JJ, if he had blown things up right away instead of giving in to Jones wishes to stay with Carter and some others, we'd be further along now. The team has had very few behavior issues. The team is one of the least penalized teams in the league, a sign of both respect for the coach and for the discipline he has developed. So exactly how has he not fit in? The talent level has been upgraded. We're still several pieces away but I think BP can smell how close he is to having a chance to win it all and that's what drives him.

BP does look tired to me but not miserable, although I think his brother dying did drain him quite a bit. I think he likes this team a lot and enjoys being around them. He's divorced now and the idea that he would be hanging out with the grandkids if he was coaching the Jets indicates the poster is someone who has zero idea of the hours an NFL coach keeps. Ridiculous. He's coming back next year bank on it.
