Getting your player ready...
In an attempt to be funny and lighten the mood, Detroit News columnist Rob Parker got more than he bargained for Sunday when he asked Lions coach Rod Marinelli if he wished his daughter had married a better defensive coordinator, taking a shot at his son-in-law, Joe Barry. Marinelli didn’t answer, but Monday he lashed out at Parker. “Anytime you attack my daughter, I’ve got a problem with that . . . ,” Marinelli said. “It was premeditated. I think there’s something wrong with that.” Parker tried to apologize Monday, but Marinelli said, “I don’t accept anything.” The Associated Press; Associated Press photo
