NEW ORLEANS -- Decisions are still pending on a possible appeal of Sean Paytons suspension or an interim coach should his season-long punishment be upheld, a person familiar with the situation said. The person says Payton, general manager Mickey Loomis and their staffs were in meetings at the teams suburban headquarters Thursday and focused primarily on preparations for next months NFL draft. The person spoke to The Associated Press Thursday on condition of anonymity because the Saints have not announced their plans. Paytons suspension in connection with the Saints bounty scandal is slated to begin on Sunday, and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said he has until Monday to appeal. Payton has sought advice on the matter from his friend and retired coach Bill Parcells, who has told several media outlets hed consider taking the Saints interim coaching job if Payton, his protege, asked him to take over. "I had plenty of opportunities to do things with different teams, and Ive turned them all down," Parcells, who turns 71 in August, told the New York Daily News. "But this one is special. This guy is like family to me. And if I could help him, I would." Payton began working with Parcells in 2003, when he was hired as an offensive assistant with the Dallas Cowboys. The two have been close ever since and Payton, throughout his six seasons as New Orleans head coach, has continued consulting his mentor on numerous matters, including how to handle preparations for the 2010 Super Bowl. However, the Saints must clear up several matters before they can choose an interim coach. They must not only decide whether to appeal, but would have to see if an appeal resulted in a reduced punishment. If Paytons punishment is upheld, the Saints could then proceed with finding an interim coach either from their own staff or outside the organization. If the Saints choose the latter approach and Parcells becomes a top candidate, the club would still have to interview a minority candidate under the NFLs "Rooney Rule." There are also three strong candidates among Saints assistants to take over as interim coach: offensive co-ordinator Pete Carmichael, defensive co-ordinator Steve Spagnuolo and offensive line coach Aaron Kromer. Payton expressed confidence in the abilities of his own assistants to compensate for his absence, but also has voiced some misgivings about saddling those coaches with additional responsibilities. "We feel like weve got a number of good candidates" on the staff, Payton said earlier this week at NFL meetings in Florida. "The trick then is what it does to affect their roles that they currently have."

The 27-year-old from Calgary battled through the nagging injury to put together a consistent 2011-12 season that included nine top-30 World Cup finishes. But the knee complaint got progressively worse towards the end of the year. "This year it became pretty apparent that it was something I had to do," Spence said in a statement Monday. "The pain was so bad, the knee was giving me so much grief, that I couldnt do my job. The (problem) had been there for a year and a bit. I kind of knew it was going to have to happen."

"It depends on the individual. It could be anywhere from four to 12 months to be back going full bore. Im not going to push it faster than anybody recommends." Spence says the knee problem was an issue he had to face in order chase down his career goals, which include a trip to the Sochi 2014 Olympic Games. "Im definitely not putting any time frames on my career. I want to do it as long as Im successful and its fun," he said. "This, for sure, is going to buy me a couple of years through to Sochi." cheap jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
