Warren Sapp Hit

[HUCKLEBERRY FINNaplex]

hey you know what its that political bullshit that is coming up these days, they are taking the pure fundamental of violence out of football and degrading it with fines and incidents like this, in the game and on the field in the legal boundaries of the game, you better be ready cause the name of the game is hits like what was seen in the game, so if a legal player lets his guard down then theyre gonna get layed out, a hits a hit, when the reciever misses the ball and gets leveled, and the quarterback who already got leveled 30 yards down the field is laying on his ass and dont see the play, they dont talk shit, speak of fines the game is savage and if your not ready to play against savages then dont let your guard down in a legal field, the hit was legal and it is what it is!!!!

I agree with that...Football is a gladiator sport,it's about seeing ferocious hits,power duels and blinding speed and skills.When I played high school ball,I took,as well as gave hits exactly like the one Sapp dished out all the time.We did'nt cry about it,we just picked(or dragged)ourselves up off the field and said,"Nice shot"and mended our bones and bruises.Leave the pansy shit for some of the non-contact sports,football is a tough guy sport.

I posted this already on the other Sapp thread. On a sidenote the OL coach from Green Bay said he will tell his men to take Sapp out the next time they play. That should make for an interesting game.

ya know.. i changed my position... FAIR GAME!!! ray lewis did the same thing but his guy was closer to the ball... GREAT BLOCK is all i heard for 2 weeks...



my problem with sapp was on a different pick return.. he had favre at the 5 and a guy in the endzone... so, warren being the DT he is takes out brett, cuz that's what you do on a pick return...

NOPE!!! that fat fuck went for the guy in the endzone because of his friendship with brett favre.... and brett made the tackle!!! you CANNOT play that game and let friendship factor in.. he should have fucking destroyed favre, simple as that...

and warren did use excessive force, he left his feet and led with his helmet... it just looks like he missed.

It just looked like Sapp was the bowling ball and The Packers Player was the pin...truly an amazing shot and yes I think Sapp respects Favre too much..most players do. He is a man just like the other 21 men on the field and should be treated as such. I'm sure he would wan tit that way.

Did you notice how Sapp barely even stumbled after putting that guy down? That was probably the most amazing part.

YES, it was fair game, and it is a tough guy sport, BUT, it was a cheap shot. Anyone can blindside someone else and lay them out, the reason being that they are totally defenseless. Yeah, Sapp's a big strong dude, but if the offensive lineman knew Sapp was coming I gaurantee that he would not have been hurt and the hit would not have been so bad. Another thing is that Sapp can be man enough to lay a cheap shot on someone and blindsiding them, but cannot hit a QB, favre, to help his player get into the endzone. Sapp said in an interview that he hit the lineman to protect his teammate, yet he just lets Favre go right after his guy and make the tackle, hes a pussy. I guess you guys agree that a sneaking someone and laying the hardest punch you can on someone when there head is turned is fair also? Give me a break, hes a bitch.

Truly amazing? Of course he didnt move after the hit, it was like hitting a blow up doll, the guy was totally defenseless and didnt see it coming. Id like to see Sapp make that same amazing hit on Ray lewis when Ray is ready. Sapp could have hit Ray lewis the same way if he did it when Lewis wasnt expecting it, are you telling me that Sapp hits harder than Lewis, dont think so.

Sapp saw a chance to take a cheap shot on someone and he took it. I don't think he even realized who he was hitting, he just wanted to hit someone in a Packer uniform. He showed his true lack of class with that hit and continues to show it with his behavior since.

I couldnt agree more!

Ok the last three posters are forgetting one thing...you can break that one thing down into parts. The one main thing is that the other guy was NOT defenseless.

The contact occurred ON A FOOTBALL FIELD. BETWEEN THE WHISTLES. The player hit was a PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYER. He was in FULL UNIFORM including, not coincindentally, LOTS OF PADDING.

By saying it was a cheap shot you are actually denigrating the guy who got hit, not Warren Sapp. What the hell was the guy doing on a football field TOTALLY DEFENSELESS? You would have to be pretty fucking stupid to step on an NFL football field and be totally defenseless. ESPECIALLY DURING a play. All Warren Sapp did was teach this guy and everyone who watched a very important lesson: NEVER BE TOTALLY DEFENSELESS ON A FOOTBALL FIELD.

I never said he was defenseless. I said it was a cheap shot because it was nowhere near the play. If that would have been a qb he hit, a flag would have been thrown. Yeah, you always know where you're at on the field, but when you are out of the play you do let up.
