Peterson visits the Lions: As Oklahoma running back Adrian Peterson stood in the sun outside Lions headquarters Friday, he said he liked the facility, liked the coaches and could see himself playing in Detroit. But that doesn't mean he expects the Lions to take him in next weekend's NFL draft. The Lions hold the No. 2 pick. "They sound interested," Peterson said. "But you know, I know the Lions have got a lot of different needs. So you never know which direction they might go in." (Detroit Free Press News)
Passed Away Blue Angel Pilot Gave Stoops 2006 Flight: The Navy Blue Angels returned home to regroup after one of their jets crashed during a maneuver, killing a pilot who was performing in one of his first air shows with the team. Investigators were sifting through the wreckage to determine what caused the aircraft to crash Saturday, killing Lt. Cmdr. Kevin J. Davis. Davis, 32, of Pittsfield, Mass., was in his second year with the Blue Angels, the team known for its high-speed, aerobatic demonstrations, Lt. Cmdr. Garrett Kasper said. Davis, a decorated pilot who joined the Blue Angels in 2005, had previously served as a narrator for the air shows, Reider said. He also handled celebrity flights, and flew with stars such as singer Kelly Clarkson, actor James Franco and University of Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops. (Navy Times)
