He was a sack monster for a DT. One of the biggest names in the game for years. Great personality.

Worthless as a human being. Nearly just as worthless on the field the last couple years. Overrated because he's a mouthy bastard. Even back in his days at Tampa Bay, I'd say Anthony McFarland was the better DT. McFarland is just as fast as Sapp, stronger, and is more sound in his playing technique, specifically wrapping up when tackling. On top of that, McFarland won't make a complete ass out of himself on the mic. Too bad Sapp's punk ass sells jerseys for some reason.

Sapp was formerly a 5 in my opinion, but his ability to contribute on the field has dropped off significantly since moving to Oakland. I don't know how long he will stay around, but if he retired now he would still be known as a great player who helped the Bucs win a Super Bowl.

On the decline...

A punk. What he did the Chad Clifton was cheap, pathetic, uncalled for, and it proved he nothing but a women hyped up on steriods playing in the NFL

Way overrated from day one. He comes from Miami and he runs his mouth non stop. That's the only reason people think he's great for some reason.

Time to retire, fatty.

A huge force to be reckoned with. Double blocking Warren only makes him steamroll two guys on his way to the ball.

that's why people should go to school! What an assclown!

He is the best D-line men in the world

A great player. As for his antics off the field, I think he should keep his mouth shut. He has the IQ of a brick.

Shut up for once a do what you get paid for, nobody cares that you play with a helmet on so nobldy can see your face, dammit, go tackle the ball carrier, that's what we the fans care about.

If sapp is oppressed than for gods sake someone oppress me.

Sapp is a racist, a bully, and a loud-mouthed fool who will likely find himslef in big trouble if he doesn't learn how to behave in a civilized fashion. The resaon that no one else interrupts other teams warmups, abuses officials and takes cheap shots is because they realize that this game requires integrity and a certain code of ethics. And that sums up Warren Sapp, his ethical code is easily visible to all.

There are 2 things that define a slave - 1)they cant quit 2)they don't recieve compensation. Sapp makes millions and can (and I wish he would) leave the NFL. His ridiculous comments are a huge insult to his ancestors and to every working person in this country who gets out of bed to do a job they hate because they have to. He is like a 10 year old with ADHD - how can someone be so stupid and such a complete jerk while have millions in the bank? what does he have to complain about? he is compensated WAY more than what he is worth. To all the disgruntled overpaid athletes out there - you owe everything you have to the fans. Without them your skills are meaningless and you are penniless.

i cannot believe warren sapp compares himself to being a slave owned by the league. playing football in the nfl is a job. nothing more, nothing less. i hear his disappointment in the way he is being treated by the league commissioners. well warren, if your unhappy in your job, get another job, or transfer. you make millions of dollars a year. you are famous and infamous in this great nation. try finding another job making that kind of money playing a sport that you love. i don't think it is possible mr sapp. look at the rest of the world and see how good you have it. just play football and keep your big mouth shut. your very disrespectful to your co-workers and the rest of america. you have more opportunities than 95 percent of america. i don't want to hear your crying about justice. you are treated more than fare. when police, school teachers, firemen and nurses make $35,000 a year for working 40 to 60 hours a week for 50 weeks out of the year and i hear warren sapp complain about justice makes my skin crawl. warren get a real job then tell us about injustices. go on a diet and shut your mouth. play ball

It hurts to hear the truth, doesn't it? Warren Sapp said (paraphrasing) 'America doesn't like to here Black men speak their mind, especially if they're rich...they (Black Athletes)should just be happy and not say anything and go on about their business'... Now people have a problem with that, but it's the truth. Black athletes have to bite their tounges and smile, because it makes "White America" uncomfortable to hear an agressive Black man (off the field). People complain at the high salaries of these athletes, and lets be honest people don't like seeing Black folk getting paid (Ie; NHL hockey is just now talking about a salary cap). People are upset at the fact Maurice Clarett wants to go pro and others like him, and lets face it people (white people) don't like seeing these Black athletes go pro at a young age, why you ask? Your guess is as good as mine. People go pro in other sports at young ages too, but nobody seems to mind, just as long as you're not a threat to the status quo, then it's all good. Seriously that's what you go to school for, making money in the real world, and lets not kid ourselves because this is a capitalistic society and everybody wants a dollar. Flip the script, how come nobody gets upset at how much the owners make off these athletes (white and black), but when the athlete wants a bigger piece of the pie, then he's just greedy. Bottom line, 'Mainstream America'(white america) doesn't like anything that threatens the status quo...Ie; there 'Black hereos', who they look up to, try to relate to, want to be like, and it hurts those fans to find out that those Black athletes have a thought process that would allow them to see the full ramifications of their situation and have the audacity to speak on it. It's like saying, athletes can't speak their mind on subjects that they've experienced. To the comments about Warren Sapp not being able to relate to people who get treated with the inhumanity that America sometimes has to offer...Please Sapp wasn't always rich and no matter how much money you make in America you're still a "Nigger" in many people's eyes (sad but true). If you don't want to hear the truth, then don't listen, but you only deny yourself the chance to make things better by honest conversation... In closing, if you want to hear some honesty, then stop listening to these "happy" Black folk who tell you it's all good and smile in your face. Listen to the ones who don't smile at you and accomadate everything you ask for, then you might here some truth. James M. Sye Co-Editor/Webmaster of THE SOULution http://www.the-soulution.com

Warren Sapp is acting like a sap! Where has the defense been when they were really needed? Absent - on the sidelines sucking wind. If Sapp would expend less energy dancing through the opponents warm up drills, bumping into refs, and kicking endzone markers, maybe he would have some energy left for the 4th quarter when the defense needs to make a stop. Get a clue Warren, your skills a waning, you can't afford to run off at the mouth if you can't run in the 4th.

I THINK HES A GREAT PLAYER AND HES MY COUSIN SO WHO EVER TALKING MAD S*** ABOUT HIM NEED TO STOP HATING..HE CANT HELP WHAT GOES ON..ON THE FIELD HES JUST BEEN "ROWDY" WITH IT...AND IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY...SO ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS THE ONES THATS TALKING CRAP..."TALK IS CHEAP IF YOU FEELING FROGY THEN LEAP"

He was always a jerk, but his disruptive plays style and superior skills kept me from disliking him. Well, ol Warren hasn't done a whole heck of a lot the last few years here in Tampa. This guy's attitude has gotten wayyy out of control and now he think's he's above criticism. He purposefully bumped that official last Sunday, let's not mince words about it. Sapp is paid $6.5 million a year to use his natural athleticism to win football games. Sapp has been an athlete all his life and there is no reason at all to believe that he would bump that guy accidently. And if it WAS an accident, why didn't he turn around and apologize? The fine was deserved, but his "slavemaster" comments were not. Nice job Warren. Let's equate your $6.5 MILLION DOLLARS you get for playing a GAME with the plight of people who were routinely beaten and treated like sub-humans. Sapp has also made plenty of inflammatory comments here in toan, and is the kind of guy that's all smiles and wit when the camera is on, but get him outside the range of a lens and he is a complete jerk. Now, let's get to his play on the field. I've been living in Tampa since 1998 and I've watched Sapp for the last 5 seasons. The last three seasons, he has contributed almost nothing to this team's defense. Some claim that it's because he's double teamed all the time, and he's pulling people off his teammates like Rice so they can make plays. Oh really? Does anyone remember somebody named Reggie White who was ALSO double and triple teamed his entire career? That didn't stop Reggie, a REAL man, from getting the all time sack record and for being a dominant force on the field his entire career. Sapp plays DT which is a different position, so he get's a LITTLE slack vs. White, but consider this as well: The Bucs defense for the last few years have shown a weakness. You can run UP THE MIDDLE on Tampa Bay. Most of their losses over the last three years have been due to teams pounding the Bucs up the middle in the running game. WHO plays in the middle? WHO is assigned to stop runs up the middle? Number 99, that's who! Sapp, thankfully, will be gone after this season since his contract is up. Tampa won't re-sign him for the money he wants, and no doubt some other team will believe the hype and pay him his asking price. Good riddance.

Who the hay gives a flip about what Warren Sapp has got to say. He should be thanking Almight GOD everyday that he's got a job at all. "Slave Masters", "Slave System", that big mouth could be working at Hardee's or McDonald's. If that's truly the way he feels why don't he just quit. Wisdom only begins to seep in when we realize how unintelligent we are in the whole scheme of things.

He is one of the worst people alive.....I hope to see him severely injured - not killed - just paralyzed and unable to move....with his only form of external communication being the ability to activate a red light and beeper with two beeps for "yes" and one for "no"....like the original Captain of the Enterprise in the first episode of "Star Trek"......it would be good to see him live a long, long time in this condition......

He's a good lineman, but probably the third best on his team (behind Rice and Booger). What hurts him is he's a turd, a loud mouth and a brat.

This guy has been over rated for some time. The last two seasons he has been horrible. Worst of all, he's a racisit. After calling league officials "slave masters", he should be punished and suspended for his comments. Maybe Rush Limbaugh was on to something. Look what happed to Rush for making a comment that simply mentioned color!! Sapp came right out and made a completely racist comment and nobody says a word about it. Who's the racisit?

warren sapp has 74 sacks in 130 career games. that's solid, but his teammate simeon rice is better than him, he has 86 sacks in only 116 games, and that's including the 5 years in arizona where he had no help! even jason taylor has 60 sacks in less than 100 games and a tackles much better too! a great player? not too bad, and since he plays tackle more than end i can respect those are very good numbers, but he should have more tackles then if he was a run stopper. if he wasn't such a jag maybe i would appreciate him more, but he has no respect for the game, couldn't even see if chad clifton, the guy he gave the cheap shot too, was okay. way to go warren. bump another official why don't you. run through a teams warmups like the jag you are. would i want him on my team? probably not, unless he could learn to set his ego aside and be a team man, notice they kept coming up short year after year with him as their leader, when simeon and a few others came in and led the team, he wasn't the reason they won the super bowl, they would have won it with or without him.

Back off he's an entertaining player, what would you really do watching a game without him?! he says what other people are afraid to say. Hell he should run for political office! Sapp for President!!! Bounce on Warren.

CHEAP SHOT SCUM..... I HOPE A WHEEL CHAIR IS IN YOUR FUTURE.

a good player, but runs his mouth way too much to be a great player...

An absolute beast. The reason the Bucs defense is so dominant. Will he still be in Tampa after the 2003 season???

blah-blah-blah. You're fat. Shut up.

Warren Sapp is by far the best defensive tackle in the game. With him drawing all the double teams, and still getting sacks and tackles, it frees up the rest of the D-line to do their magic. Throw in a stout secondary, and you have Sapp as the leader of one of the best defensive lines in history. He could get mad about the double teams, but he knows that it helps his team. That is the mark of a team player. As for his sportsmanship, Warren likes to talk like so many players today do. If it had been a player that confronted Sapp at the end of the Green Bay game, would we have had so much controversy on the verbal altercation?

hey. i played defensive tackle in high school and i got off the ball faster than everybody...and i weighed 220. this guy could smoke me off the ball and he's lik 300

best d-lineman in the game....evn with tripple teams manages to get double-digit sacks...amazing

Awesome intense player. He speaks his mind, if he doesn't like you he lets you know. If he does like you, he'd be a friend I'd like to have.

The only consolation I have after that superbowl is that I will probably out-live that obese loud-mouth of a football player. If he were a team player, if he would respect opposing teams and their coaches, if he played half as well as he talks, then I would give him 5 stars and Tampa Bay would have been the team of the decade.

Good job Warren Sapp!!! Sometimes it't difficult for people to see your true frame of mind, but always remember that there are many more who do. The Tampa Bay Buccuneers and you are in a very special situation now, enjoy and savoy it, for it won't get any better this.Cheers!!!

Him and Simeon Rice control the field and he can definitely back up his trash talking...i want to see green bay's coach put on a jersey!

Sapp's a good football player. His hit was legal but still cheap. He talks way more than he wins. The number one reason is the Philadelphia Eagles. I am sure he'll have a few good games the rest of this year, but that will all end at the Vet after he gets mandhandled by the Birds' O-Line. His season will end, once again, with him wearing a parka and hunkered down on the bench looking cold and miserable as 65,000 Philly faithful celebrate.

Cheap shot artist.

I would never do something like this, except everyone who can should send warren sapp emails and call his house and send letters telling him what a jerk he is on the field and off. He sexually abused watress staff this summer at the country club in Tampa, I know as I belong there, he pushed a little kid out of the way trying to get autographs at summer camp, and now his dirty playing on the field with dancing over a player hurt for life...he is a rotten person and dirty player who should be fined and suspended, but the coach encourages it....stupid player

what an a-hole. what's the big deal w/ Sapp? he had one good year and his numbers have been pretty subpar since. he's fat and ugly and has no brain. whatta di*k

Warren Sapp is the worst. Warren why don't you do your chicken dance straight out of town. He is even a bigger @ss off the field

Warren Sapp is cheap shot artist.If it weren't for his mouth us in Tampa Bay wouldn't know he was here. His cheap shot against Chad Clifton was uncalled for. I'd like to celebrate over him being hurt on the field

WARREN SAPP is a stupid person who is dumb

Cheap shot telling a 50 year old plus coach to put on a jersey. Maybe warren excells because he picks on easy targets.

SAPP ROCKS!!! His size, speed, agility make him the most exciting player in the NFL. Love to watch the BIG9's level the QB (about 30 or so sacks), and what about that vertical jump ( How many passes defensed ? 14 or 15 ) GO BUCCS!

Best DT in the game. Has unmatched intensity. A brash player who talks a lot and backs it up. Benefits from having a defensive man as his head coach. Will be an All-Pro mainstay for a long time to come.

The best Defensive player today...he fast big tough and powerful....No one man can contain him from a sack....Sapp is the man......

Big and mean - a Cane at heart!

Warren is the best d-lineman in the game today. He has to be accounted for every time out. Even with the double teams he faces, he finds a way to get to the qb
