The Detroit Lions got busy on Wednesday jumping into the free agency fray and trying to position themselves to be a factor in the NFC North in 2013.
They got their man in Reggie Bush, and finished the day off well by signing Glover Quin. One particular Green Packer was not impressed, and went out of his way to let everyone know they should slow down before crowning the Lions in March.
Packers offensive lineman T.J. Lang has been known to express himself, and yesterday according to USA Today, he took to Twitter to mock the Lions and crown them champions of March.
So do the lions get hats and t shirts for winning the off season NFC north title?

After apparently catching hell from Lions fans, Lang made it clear he was joking, but the damage was done.
Man people sure do get worked up over some football jokes!

Lions fans should relax a little. It’s not the biggest diss in the world, and analyst and pundits alike constantly discuss the fact that teams and their fan bases shouldn’t assume they won the Super Bowl in March because of a huge free agent haul.
