Washington has a great way to punish players who fight during practice (Video)
Things can get heated on the football field, even amongst teammates — especially during the dog days of preseason camp.
It happened Friday at Washington, with wide receiver Quinten Pounds and cornerback Jordan Miller getting into what Seattle Times reporter Adam Jude called a “scuffle” during practice.

Yep, the two had to walk the exterior of the practice field while holding hands.

Is it kind of cruel? Yes.
Is it kind of funny. Also yes.
Is it effective? Probably.
I don’t think you’ll see these two mix it up any time soon. Oh, and thanks to Huskies defensive lineman Elijah Qualls we know the name of this cruel and unusual punishment:
Elijah Qualls called the Huskies' walk of shame “Lovers' Lane.” Said he had to do the walk once after a scuffle with John Turner.
