Jeff Fisher says he received a call from his mother after a recent episode of HBO's Hard Knocks in which the Los Angeles Rams coach used some curse words in describing his frustration with a player who broke team rules.

"I got one of these yesterday, 'Jeffrey!'" Fisher said. "This is from Mom. So I said, 'Sorry, Mom. That's our world. I'll try to do better.' When I hear 'Jeffrey!' It's uh-oh. Something went wrong."

Fisher's expletives came in response to Deon Long, who was cut for bringing a woman into his room at training camp, despite Fisher's strict instructions that there were to be no guests.
