FINS SNARE TUNA

IIt's official.  Veteran coach Bill Parcells has joined the Miami Dolphins on the same day that he handed Falcons owner Arthur Blank the latest setback in arguably the worst month that any NFL franchise has ever experienced.

Parcells has inked a four-year deal, and regardless of his title he'll be in charge of the football operations.

The futures of G.M. Randy Mueller and coach Cam Cameron are currently unknown.  Our guess is that both will be fired, and that Parcells will hire his own G.M., and Parcells and his G.M. will hire their own coach.

It also remains to be seen whether the arrival of Parcells gives the team a late-season foot in the fanny.  With a chance to derail the Pats' perfect season only days away, a rejuvenated locker room could surprise one of the various teams for whom Parcells previously worked.
