I knew Parcells couldn't shake the NFL so easily.
Bill Parcells signed a four-year contract with the Miami Dolphins to become the team's executive vice president of football operations on Thursday.
Parcells faxed the contract to the team, less than a day after turning down an offer to join the Atlanta Falcons.
"He has a proven track record of success everywhere he has been in the National Football League," Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga said Thursday afternoon. "And his football acumen will help put the Miami Dolphins franchise back among the elite of the NFL."
The two-time Super Bowl champion coach will report directly to Huizenga, whose affinity for big-name help now has led him to Parcells -- a 66-year-old former coach of four NFL clubs who owns a home in South Florida and now has a job there, too.
At 1 and 13 I have almost as much empathy for the Miami team members as I do for the sorry bastards sitting around that conference table in '08.
