Bill Parcells attends the funeral of his younger brother

DMN Mosley Blog: Tough day for Parcells

Bill Parcells is in New Jersey today attending the funeral of his younger brother, Don, who passed away last week after a long fight with brain cancer.Parcells will return to Philadelphia in time to coach his team. I've heard people say they don't know how Parcells could coach a game on the same day of his brother's funeral. But I would think Parcells probably welcomes the diversion that tonight's game will bring. I don't recall Parcells ever saying anything about his younger brother, but from everything I've heard in recent days, he was a pretty remarkable former soldier and man.
