Terry Glenn and Bill Parcells to be reunited?
Don't be surpirsed to see it happen.
It was Glenn who was forced on Parcells in the first round of the 1996 draft, when Patriots owner Robert Kraft took away Parcells' personnel powers. During his first training camp with the Patriots, Glenn suffered a tweaked hammy, and at a press conference that turned out to be somewhat historic (I was lucky enough to be there, actually), Parcells was asked about Glenn's status.
"She's doing fine," Parcells said.
It created a firestorm of controversy, and further alienated Parcells from Kraft. After that season, in which the Patriots went to the Super Bowl and were beaten by Brett Favre's Packers, Parcells jumped to the Jets.
Glenn eventually became an elite receivers and was recruited by the Cowboys when Parcells was coach. Thus, I'm not surprised at all that Glenn would be rejoining Parcells. In fact, I predicted it last month.
Perhaps if I could predict football games like that, I might not be the butt of Newsday football handicapper and thoroughbred maniac Ed McNamara's cackling during the season.

Glauber they were address just this subject down here this morning. The Dolphins lack of WRs. Ted Ginn has shown absolutely nothing so far in camp. This other guy they would like to see step up, Derek Hagen, drops too many balls and that's pretty much all they have. Terry Glenn washed up is better than that, and if he isn't he's just as good as Marty Booker was for them last season and provides veteran leadership at the very least.
Hey Glauber...
You still doing look-a-likes?
How 'bout John Tortorella and Gov. David Patterson?
