Warren Sapp is an embarrassment to football

Sapp's hit was completly fair, Sherman should have done his battle with Sapp in the press room, not on the field with 7 TV cameras. The Point is, If Chad Clifton gets right back up, None of this happens.

 

Moestavern...are you arguing with yourself? Which side of the argument are you on?

 

Do you really think that Sapp knew they guy was injured to the point of not being able to feel his fingers?

Now, I've never played professional sports, but I'm fairly sure that there are unwritten rules about how you conduct yourself when you know an opponent is seriously hurt (whether its a sprained ankle, or a blown out knee). As much as you think that Warren Sapp is an ass, there is no way he would celebrate another player's injury.

Dont you think just maybe he was celebrating a good block and an interception that was a huge play in a huge game?

 

So both of you would rather be paralyzed and rich than able to walk and not take a **** on yourself but without your life savings.


Riiiiiiiiight.

 

As you would say, your opinion is wrong. That's a ridiculous comment

 

Warren Sapp deserves to die.

 

If it had been someone else I might be on Sapp's side, but this guy has a history of yapping his mouth off to whoever will listen. Everything he does is an act to bring more attention his way.

I'm not sure how Sapp "celebrated," but to me celebrating a block against an unsuspecting player that wasn't near the play and had no effect on the actual play itself is nothing to celebrate about. There's a difference when you celebrate a hit against a QB, because you're usually celebrating a sack or forcing a badpass. When a DB clocks a wide receiver, he has something to celebrate about because he broke up a pass. Sapp had no business celebrating what he did. It was just your typical athlete telling everyone "LOOK AT ME!" Sapp is worse than Terrell Owens.

I think it was the celebration that pissed off Sherman the most, and I totally agree with him 100%. In fact, I admire him for going out there and sticking up for his player. What? Sapp can dish it out, but he can't take it?

 

Nomar, that's a terrible thing to say. Are you trying to make a point or is this how you truly feel?

 

I`m sure he was celebrating his block which had a major impact on the play.......oh wait it didnt have an impact on the play did it?
Sapp celebrated for several minutes on the field and on the sideline after the play at which time the player did not get up and play could not resume although Sapp continued to show his prowness for an awesome block 35 yards away from the ball. I have no problem with the hit if it had an impact on the play, but this was simply a case of of a guy head hunting a player that had no bearing on the play at all, was it legal, of course it was, was it a cheap shot, your damn right it was.

 

This is football for Pete Sake, do ya'll watch it? When the defenses get INTs this stuff happens all the time because this is DLs one chance to lay a lick on the OLs (or pretty much QBs now too) that have been targeting them play after play. Was it unneccesary, sure, was it illegal, was it aimed at his head, was it aimed at his knee, did he lead with his helmut, "NO" to all of them. I agree with Tom Jackson on ESPN--someone who played pro football. The coach should leave it up to the players--the coaches are supposed to be the cool heads in this--Sherman was not and he has apologized for it. It is football. Sapp hasn't gone after Sherman after like 8 years of blocks by Sherman's players at his knee's. Also, you didn't see Brett Farve or other Packers confront Sapp--in fact Sapp and Farve practically embraced. Either Sherman reacted inappropriately after the game or Farve and every other Packer player is a wuss not backing up his teammates--you decide.

Isn't the internet great, because if you said that to someone like Sapp in real life I be b****ing about paying for your SS disability .

Rockss,

Again the reason they specifically DO NOT set somekind of 'within so many yards of the ball' rule is because the play can always reverse back in direction. And the OL was running toward the play, tracking the ball (if he was just jogging around he would have seen Sapp coming). Although the OL was hurt, there is no way for Sapp to reasonably tell if he gave the guy a concussion, which most would think of as a 'bonecrushing' hit or some such, and him loosing feeling, which you never hear ANY player wish for on the field.

The stigma attached to welfare as the 'undeserving' or 'ignorant' poor is most often linked to african-americans in right wing rhetoric. In this example you make fun of his speech, and then you say he would be on welfare if he couldn't play football. You put all that in the context of defining what a 'thug' is, which is rarely a label attached to whites. I don't think its a reach to connect the dots, even if you don't realize it.

NJRocket,

I would ask for your reasoning on the subject but I know from our other encounter that you have no ability to make a coherent point. I'm sure TJ can defend himself without your 'help.'

 

Some of you guys are crazy.

There's soooo many things that go on during a game that y'all would call "cheap" but you just don't see.

Sapp receives as much as he dishes out (think punches to the face).

I don't think anyone was right or wrong.

Sapp was playing to the cameras...some of y'all need to recognize that.

That wasn't a cheap play and it won't get fined, my opinion.

Sherman is entitled to his cussing (and he did cuss) and so is Sapp.

If some of y'all met in met in real life, I wonder how many people would act so rude.

I'd be so pissed and kicking some serious ass...no lie. Refman wouldn't even be able to hold me LOL.

 

Maybe you should go buh-bye before you lose another argument.

At least now I know for sure you are an ass. Why else would you incite a race riot in a thread about a football game.

 

Hayes is a student? No wonder he thinks he has all the answers. LOLOLOLOLOLOL. Hey Hayes...argue with me when you hit the real world buddy. Now run along to recess thesis boy.
