    Parcells tells Saints he won't unretire to coach team in 2012

    Bill Parcells has informed the New Orleans Saints that he will not replace suspended coach Sean Payton on an interim basis for the 2012 season and is staying retired, a league source said Tuesday.

    Parcells' agent, Jimmy Sexton, declined comment to The Associated Press. Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said the team had "nothing to report" on its search for an interim coach.

    The Saints now will look to hire from within the organization. By promoting an assistant on the team, the Saints will not have to interview a minority candidate in accordance with the NFL's Rooney Rule...........

    At 72 years old, he doesn't need the headaches and scrutiny that would follow.

    Bad news for Sean Payton. Hopefully Vitt does enough to steal the job permanently.

    I doubt that happens. Payton is going to serve his suspension and come back the day after the Super Bowl ends. If Benson was going to fire Payton, then he'd have to fire everyone that had anything to do with the bounty scandal. He has no intention to fire Payton, the coach who won the only Super Bowl in Saints history.

    If he was going to fire Peyton, he would have done it already.
