Scott K Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Quote:The New York Post reports Vikings owner Zygi Wilf aims to undercut the Saints by "putting the hard sell" on Bill Parcells to "run the show" in Minnesota.Wilf was born in New Jersey, attended New York Law School in Manhattan, and apparently carries a torch for the former Giants and Jets head coach. Wilf is reportedly "seeking an upgrade on" coach Leslie Frazier, and GM Rick Spielman is on board with the Big Tuna. Wilf asked Parcells to "name his price" as football czar as well as head coach, though the 71-year-old future Hall of Famer has reservations that the game has "passed [him] by." We have to believe the Vikings' interest in a high-profile coach is (was?) related to the push for a new stadium in Minneapolis. The report stems from Parcells' side, however, which suggests an attempt at leverage with the Saints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antero Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 And Mr Parcels would want to coach/run the Vikings...why? There are lots of walleyes, crappies, pike and sunnies in Minnesota, there will not be a Tuna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott K Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 It looks like this was just a rumor to get more money from the Saints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YiGGiN4SLoBS Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Theres probably some truth to it... You know zygi of all people is not happy with the saints for what they pulled. He sees sean payton suspended a year and yet still being allowed to hand pick a hall of fame coach, he wants to stick it Benson, Patyon and the entire who dat nation any way he can. No one in the organization is going to come out and say that its true, of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FISHINGURU Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 That's how I see it. I bet if Payton never got suspended you would of never heard about us going for Parcells, if the Saints decided to go with Gruden tomorrow we'd want him too lol.

TR21HP Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Parcells will be coaching the Saints this year because of the new audio released by Yahoo sports on Greg Williams. Payton is absolutely down for the year and Williams just kissed his future employment goodbye! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
