Yahoo! Sports - NFL - NFL won't throw flag at Parcells: "Bill Parcells won't be fined by the NFL for calling surprise plays used in practice 'Jap plays,' a remark for which he later apologized. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Tuesday that no action would be taken by the league against the Dallas Cowboys coach.

Parcells made the remark, an apparent reference to Japan's 1941 surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, while talking to reporters during the Cowboys' minicamp Monday. Later in the day, Parcells issued a statement apologizing.

'I made a very inappropriate reference, and although I prefaced it with the remark, 'no disrespect to anyone intended,' it was still uncalled for and inconsiderate,' he said. 'For that I apologize to anyone who may have been offended.'"

Yeah, good little lesson there. If you have to say "no disrespect intended" several times as you are saying something, maybe you shouldn't say it! What a moron.
