Default OT: Baltimore Ravens lose a week of OTAs

Quote:
"It was determined that the Ravens violated the rules concerning the intensity and tempo of drills conducted on the Club's organized team activity days ('OTA days') and the length of time spent by players at the Club's facility on such days.

"As a result, the Ravens will forfeit the final week of their off-season program (June 14-18, 2010). Ravens' players are not permitted to be at the facility on those days, but will be paid for the sessions. The Club cannot reschedule the canceled days."

Major cheating scandal. I'd take away this years 1st round pick too.

What is the point in restricting and limiting these things anyway?

I believe that this was something mandated by the UNION to prevent teams from DEMANDING the players put in more time during the off-season.

Follow up:

Ravens admit to "mistake":

Quote:
"The NFL informed us of the situation, and the action they've taken is appropriate," G.M. Ozzie Newsome said in comments released by the team. "We made a mistake, and it won't happen again. We'll complete our organized team activity days this week and then turn our focus to the start of training camp."

I wonder if we'll find out what the "mistake" was.

I bet there was a silent cheer among the players when this was announced. Next time something like this happens, the players will probably have to take a number if they want to drop a dime on the coach.
