NFL wide receiver Deon Long has learned the hard (knocks) way that breaking team rules is never a good idea — even if it’s for a booty call.
HBO’s new season of “Hard Knocks” kicked off last night, and the Los Angeles Rams’ training camp is the focus of the 11th installment of the show. The highlight of the premiere was a lowlight for Long, as coach Jeff Fisher cut him after it was revealed he violated team policy.
The particular rule he violated was “no female guests in the room,” and even though Long explained to his coach that the girl was in his dorm before curfew and he didn’t intend to have her stay, Fisher told him he was gone.
“Sorry, but this is our world, man. We have rules and we have to abide by them,” said Fisher.
The coach then informed the players what had happened, stating that what Long did was some “7-9 bullshit.” Fittingly, Long has since been signed by the Eagles, and they’ll be lucky to win seven games this year.
