    Making fun of Tom Brady doesn't play well with the boys upstairs.

    Detroit Lions defensive end Willie Young learned as much Friday when he was fined $7,875 for taunting the Patriots quarterback in a 40-9 preseason win over New England on Aug. 22, a league source told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport.

    Young promptly was benched for the rest of the game by coach Jim Schwartz for what turned out to be an expensive emotional outburst by the third-year pass rusher.

    the Lions players are just getting warmed up for their stupidity during the regular season. I predict the Lions will top themselves this year.

    These fines are getting ridiculous. I think I saw someone put their fingers in their ears, wiggle their fingers and stick their tongue out at Tom Brady, that will cost you $1 million!
