Browns Banter: Rumors Swirl That Bill Parcells May Be Interested in Coming to Cleveland

Newest rumor coming out of South Florida: Bill Parcells, Scott Pioli’s father-in-law, has directed Pioli to interview with the Kansas City Chiefs. An interview has apparently been scheduled.

In the meantime, Bill Parcells, a kind of NFL Fix-It Man mixed with Powerful Mafia Boss, may take his option and get out of Miami and head up north.

To Cleveland.

If this is true, it would be a better deal than Cleveland landing LeBron James. Bill Parcells at the helm as Browns president and who ever the heck Parcells wants.

Another rumor floating out there is that Mike Shanahan may be the best fit for a Cleveland Browns coach.

Word is, Parcells has many friends among the Italian-Americans living in Cleveland.

Unfortunately, just for today, I will root for Baltimore to beat Miami.

Maybe there is a Football God, after all.

(Editor’s Note: I have heard from a few people that there was a radio interview on a local Cleveland station today that posited exactly what Midnight Writer explains in this post: that Bill Parcells very well may be interested in the Cleveland job, should he opt out of his position with the Dolphins. With speculation swirling that the new Dolphins owner could bring in friend Carl Peterson, despite his public pronouncements that he wants Parcells to stay, it could help motivate Bill Parcells to seek out a new turnaround job in another city.

I honestly don’t quite know what to make of this yet, but the thought of Bill Parcells in Cleveland, working his magic yet again, is certainly an intriguing possibility.)

Update: Check out today’s LOTD for a new update regarding the Parcells-to-Browns rumor that was floating early today. The update is near the bottom of the story.
