New York Giants legend Bill Parcells to be inducted into Patriots Hall of Fame
New York Giants legend Bill Parcells to be inducted into Patriots Hall of Fame Legendary New York Giants head coach Bill Parcells will soon add to the long list of honors that currently line his resume. In addition to the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Giants Ring of Honor, Parcells will be inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame during a ceremony on Saturday, September 20 at 4:00 p.m. ET on the Patriot Place Plaza. Parcells served as head coach of the Patriots from 1993 to 1996, helping restore credibility and competitive success to a struggling franchise. Inheriting a team that had gone 14-50 over the previous four seasons, including an NFL worst 2-14 season in 1992 and 1-15 season in 1990, Parcells made an immediate impact. In 1994, he led the Patriots on a season-ending seven-game win streak to secure their first playoff berth in eight years. The performance earned Parcells NFL Coach of the Year honors. After finishing 6-10 in 1995, the Patriots rebounded with an 11-win season in 1996, tying the then franchise record for wins and earning their first division title in a decade. After a convincing, 28-3, victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the divisional playoff game in foggy Foxborough, the Patriots hosted their first AFC Championship game and defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars, 20-6, to reach Super Bowl XXXI, marking just the second Super Bowl appearance in franchise history. Parcells was a Patriots Hall of Fame finalist five times (2011, 2012, 2014, 2020 and 2023) before his 2025 induction. A Pro Football Hall of Famer (Class of 2013), Parcells is the only head coach in NFL history to lead four different teams to the playoffs and three different teams to a conference championship game. He is also a member of the Patriots 1990s All-Decade Team. Although Parcells' career success transcends what he did with the Giants, he is most well-known for his time as linebackers coach (1981-1982), defensive coordinator (1979, 1981-1982), and head coach (1983-1991) of Big Blue. During his time with the Giants, Parcells led the team to two Super Bowl championships, including their first ever (1986). He was also named Pro Football Weekly NFL Coach of the Year, The Sporting News NFL Coach of the Year, and AP NFL Coach of the Year that season. Parcells will be inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame alongside wide receiver Julian Edelman.

Terrifying Moment Plastic Surgeon Notices Lip Filler Went Dangerously Wrong
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. There are risks to everything you do, so it's no surprise that plastic surgeons are often asked about the complications they've encountered throughout their careers. Dr. Alexis Parcells, a board-certified plastic surgeon with 15 years of experience, recently shared the "craziest complication" she has ever come across in practice—via a TikTok video (@alexisparcellsmd) that has now amassed over 803,000 views. In the video, she details a medical emergency that occurred more than a decade ago while she was injecting a woman with filler. She told Newsweek that while such events are "very rare," a blockage in the blood vessels—known as vascular occlusion—can sometimes happen. Minimally invasive procedures remain the most popular cosmetic option due to their ability to deliver immediate results with minimal downtime, according to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS). These treatments account for 80 percent of all procedures, with neurotoxins (such as Botox) and dermal fillers leading the way—administered routinely by 90 percent of surgeons. Parcells, who practices in New York, emphasizes the importance of understanding the risks involved with cosmetic injectables, especially lip fillers. She told Newsweek: "It's important to educate the public on this important topic so that if they do decide to have a filler procedure, they understand the risks." In the video, she recounts injecting the patient's left upper lip and suddenly noticing that half of her lip and face turned completely white. This alarming sign indicated that some of the filler had entered a blood vessel, obstructing blood flow to the upper lip, nose, and cheek. A stock image of a woman being injected with lip filler. A stock image of a woman being injected with lip filler. familylifestyle/iStock / Getty Images Plus Sam Fuller, an Indiana-based plastic surgeon, told Newsweek how hyaluronic acid is the most common product used in lip filler. "It used to hydrate and increase volume of the tissue of the lips, cheeks, and other areas. It is gelatinous in nature with varying degrees of stiffness and structure, and can last 6-18 months in the body before it is eventually reabsorbed," he said. "However, when it is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, it may occlude it, causing serious compromise. This can lead to inadequate perfusion and blood supply to the surrounding tissue, including the lip, cheek, nose, and other parts of the face. Without treatment, necrosis and tissue loss can occur. In devastating cases, skin loss and permanent scarring can be seen." "I realized immediately," Parcells said, adding that although she had never seen it happen before, she had been trained to recognize it. She described the experience as "traumatic and terrifying," but stayed calm and began massaging the area to break up the filler and restore blood flow. A colleague applied warm compresses while she administered additional medication, including an enzyme to dissolve the filler. Ultimately, the filler was fully dissolved, blood circulation returned, and she even paid for the patient to undergo hyperbaric oxygen therapy to support recovery. Tips for Choosing a Safe and Experienced Filler Provider Parcells hopes her video helps patients when it comes to the selecting practitioner experience. She told Newsweek: "If you decide to have a filler procedure, it is important to select a provider who is well-trained in lip filler technique. You can ask to see a provider's certifications. "Additionally, you can read real patient reviews online, see before and after photos, and ask to speak to a recent patient who underwent this procedure. If the injector cannot provide this information, they may not be experienced enough. "Make sure to ask if your filler is reversible in the event of an emergency (such as this), and confirm they have all the materials necessary to reverse the product." TikTok Reacts The April 2 video has received more than 63,000 likes and almost 1,600 comments. "And that's why [doctors] should be performing fillers and Botox," said one comment with over 12,000 likes. "It's refreshing for a physician be so honest," praised another user, and a third agreed: "I'd send someone to you after that experience. Side effects happen but this is the type of care that makes a huge difference."

Former Patriots coach Bill Parcells to be inducted in team's hall of fame
It took some time, but Bill Parcells is finally getting a place in the New England Patriots Hall of Fame. Team owner Robert Kraft announced on Tuesday at the NFL league meetings in Florida that he will be including Parcells in this year's class as a contributor, ending a rift between the two that culminated in Parcells leaving after New England's Super Bowl loss after the 1996 season. "In the early 1990s, the Patriots were in disarray," Kraft said in a statement. "But the hiring of Bill Parcells in 1993, a two-time Super Bowl champion, brought instant credibility to the franchise." Parcells coached four seasons in New England from 1993 to 1996. The team went just 5-11 in his first season. Then, Parcells led a fast rebuild, with the Patriots going from the bottom of the AFC East to an 11-5 finish in 1996. They made a run to the Super Bowl to cap that season, where they lost to the Green Bay Packers. That Super Bowl was significant in the end of Parcells' tenure in New England, with him resigning as coach days later in a dispute with Kraft about personnel control. Parcells ended up leaving the Patriots to coach the AFC East rival New York Jets in 1997. Then-NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue worked out a deal giving the Patriots four draft picks to allow Parcells to coach the Jets. The incident caused friction between Parcells and the franchise, with Parcells being nominated for the Patriots hall five times (2011, 2012, 2014, 2020 and 2023), but never making it in. In the intervening years, Parcells was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as the only coach in NFL history to ever lead four different teams to the playoffs and three different teams to a conference championship game. He is also a member of the Patriots 1990s All-Decade Team. Kraft told reporters in Florida that it was his wish to see Parcells honored "while both of us are alive." Parcells and Kraft both will turn 84 this summer. "I am sure he would have been voted in eventually, but I wanted to expedite the process so he can enjoy the ceremony," Kraft said.
