Detroit News - The Lions have forfeited their final two organized team activity (OTA) practices to resolve issues regarding the intensity and tempo of drills. The Lions settled the issue Thursday with the NFL Management Council and the NFL Players Association. The Lions canceled practices Monday and Tuesday, their final two OTA practices before a mandatory mini-camp Wednesday through Friday. The NFL's collective bargaining agreement sets rules for OTAs, which include non-contact drills without pads. The NFL randomly monitors practices tapes, which indicates that it is not likely that a Lions player reported possible violations. "We will comply with the league's directive and we will continue to respect and emphasize the NFL's rules and regulations regarding the off-season training program," Lions general manager Martin Mayhew said in a statement.
Nice fuckin try NFL, but there ain't no taming these Lions. This new look pride doesn't have an off switch. I mean Follett sleeps at the Lion's training facility and Vanden Boesch is probably shaving his head in the locker room right now before he goes out and hits the sled for the next three hours. You can't tell a great white to stop eating shit in the ocean and you can't tell the Lions to stop being awesome. It's science.
