Today, Tony Soprano was named head coach of the worst NFL franchise (by record) last year. It is believed that Tony's extensive experience in the CEO-type role as head of the family will translate well into a successful career as football coach. As a CEO style coach, he will rely heavily on his coordinators for the day-to-day coaching and the front office for personnel decisions. No one can question his ability to motivate or intimidate. Interesting hire by Parcells.
So really, Tony Sparano sounds like a great hire, and remedies a lot of the problems I found with the Ravens' choice of Garrett. Sparano has been around the NFL and apparently gets a lot of respect from his players (see Mosley's post on ESPN). He's worked with Parcells so that won't be the shock it could be for others. His interview with the Ravens was described as "unbelievable". The toughest part of the job could be dealing with the press.
The Parcells era has officially begun in Miami. Sparano and Brian Gaine (new hire as assistant director of player personnel) have both worked closely with Parcells in the past. We'll see if the Tuna can run a franchise.
Brien adds: I saw this on Sunday and thought it was hilarious

Wow, Tony Sparano sounds a lot like Tony Soprano. I never made that connection. Why hasn't anyone pointed that out before?
The Kenny Mayne thing was pretty funny.
that was a good video because:
a) the joke on cheerleaders not knowing how to parallel park
b)MARK CUBAN - America's most entertaining businessman
and paulie walnuts makes everything go round.
I thought it was kind of stupid until Cuban walked in. Then it was hilarious.
