Warren Sapp/NFL Network: It is when it is (except when it isn't)

[SkinBasket]

Yeah, if the roles were reversed, how do you think Sapp would have responded to falsely being labeled a 'snitch'?

THEN it would be a big deal. I hope Shockey pursues this, particularly if he doesn't get offered a decent contract.

Maybe if Shockey puts on a hoodie, he can get his street cred back.

Warren Sapp is walking on thin ice now. His mouth is his own worst enemy.

I'm not one for prejudice or' beating a dead horse', but I have limitations. I'll never forget Warren Sapp's cheap shot on Chad Clifton.

A fricken'animal behaviour', a cheap rotten shot that damn near cost our LT his future with the Packers. That fricken low blow CRAP shot is forever etched in my memory. It sickened me even worse than the pounding I observed Brett Favre take from the Saints in that NFC Championship game.

How can these PRO's behave like 'such animals' is one question ? To allow them to not go severely punished is not.This must be the result the FINAL outcome. SEVERE Punishment and nothing less.

This is a case of peoples lives. The ability to provide for family is at stake; as well as the overall integrity of the NFL and football 'in general'. This is a sport and this garbage low mentality stupid behaviour has to go and in process be harshly punished.

We're coming to learn soon the fate of the players implicated by all reports. The bottom line; ultimately they took this route 'to the dark side' and they need to be severly punished.

I'll not feel one bit sad if Jonathan Vilma is banned from the NFL for life. He deserves to get that just punishment as his position was certainly not professional and not anything close to what the NFLPA stands for.

Vilma is the answer to your question woodbuck. They are coached and encouraged to do that. Defensive coaches all want that kind of aggressiveness, and they run the risk that it occurs at the wrong time, on the wrong player or while a ref is watching. The Saints players are also proof that this approach has limits, as there has been much more ink spilled than blood from actual hits designed to knock players out of games.

Banning Vilma is not going to stop the behavior if players feel like that kind of play (or that kind of incentive) is required to succeed in the NFL. The guy who should be banned for life is Williams. The NFL has careful avoided a complete investigation into his time with the Redskins, Bills and Titans. They performed a cursory look, similar to the one they did at first for the Saints. In fairness, they may not have the smoking gun for those other teams that they were handed for the Saints. Or, perhaps, they do and the other teams are getting their first chance to clean it up themselves.

Its odd that no one recalls the head shot Rodgers took versus the Lions in Detroit during 2010. Jim Schwartz was a Williams disciple. It will continue because the NFL wants a public hanging and is not interested in hanging out its dirty laundry on a regular basis.

There are infinitely more helmet hits these days and a significant of them are due to coaches wanting a defensive player to put a hat on the ball. They have gotten what they wished for.

In terms of Warren Sapp I'm reminded of **Regis Philbin's famous remark...." I'm..... out of CONTROL."


Soon Sapps' flapping lips' will be bigger than his head. Is he desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit? Maybe? this lady?





** some trivia: Regis Philbin holds the Guinness World Record for the most time spent in front of a television camera.

Dear God, what did that woman do to her mouth??

This Sapp situation requires Skinbasket's delicate touch in order to fully express how much Sapp and Shockey can bite bad things, suffer impalements, and swallow icky stuff for all we care.

I guess we know how you feel about certain substances now, Swede.

Yes pbmax but as an interested NFL fan:

I believe that the NFLPA will have a say 'ultimately' in regards to specific player penaltys.

I believe that J. Vilma will get hit very hard. At the same time I'm asking myself this question:

pbmax?

Does J. Vilma get some break because he divulged his information and part in this scandalous story?

I will add this tid bit:

The NFLPA is not normally involved at all in the setting of punishments. Which suggests the NFL wants something in return for consultations. And they have turned over more details of the players involvement. So in my mind, Goodell is either trying to guard against a course of action after the punishments are announced (litigation) or he needs help deflecting the blame.

Karma is a bitch.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. There is something phoney about his entire act. Media used to give him kudos for asking what a reporter needed during an interview so he would be sure to give quotes that were on topic or tone. Its a lovely gesture, but when you are acting as your own PR firm, I doubt we have any idea what you truly think. He used Favre to bolster his fame (not as much as that twit on the Vikings).

If I remember correctly, he was falsely accused of testing positive for marijuana right before the draft, and it turned out to be false. I always loved that when he complained about it, it never seemed to occur to him that the Bucs planted the story so he would fall to them.

He was a great player though. Can't take that away from the cheap shot bastard.

[woodbuck27]

Karma is a bitch.

No kidding.

I've a hunch that next time Mr. SAPP's contract comes up his first thought will be: I'm done.

His second thought might? be along these lines:

Would I make a decent ' Walmart Greeter '. Maybe the Walmart Personnel Dept. will love my moon face cheeky smile and not be an NFL fan.

Was Warren Sapp a great player? That's moot as anything he did on the field that was positive was trumped negatively by what the chump ass did to Chad Clifton.

I struggle with a prejudice. One that I cannot make vanish. I can't hate Warren Sapp as he's so pathetic. I also will NOT like him.

Support payment for how many women? Dear GOD! How can any man be so dumb .... use people so horribly?
