Anyone see the Micheal Irvin interview with Warran Sapp? Called Paul Tagliabu (sp?) a slave owner, for fining him for "bumping" a ref. Sounds like he wanted us to feel sorry for him because he is not allowed to flaunt himself on the field. Say's "the Man" is holding him down. I did not know that you could be paid millions and be a slave at the same time. Maybe I just don't understand? :confused:

This is kinda my point. Quit complaining....Do what everyone else in the world has to do. If you don't like it quit and find another job making 10 million a year. Don't try to win sympathy from me because you are not allowed to take you helmet off playing a fricken game for a living. Can't you be happy of what you have? Man, I have 1 millionth of what he has and thank my blessings everyday. JMHO

Perhaps this will cost him another fine. You have the right to say whatever you want as long as you are willing to pay the price.

Re: Warran Sapp is a victim?????

Poor Warren is out to lunch on this one. The NFL controls the manner of the game and how it is marketed. Everyone that chooses, and has the ability, to play in the league must abide by the league rules.<br />Now if the league had different rules for some players and not others, that would be a different story, and he could possibly have a case, no matter what he is paid. But that is not the case in this instance.<br />If he chooses to join, he agrees to abide by the rules. If he wants to start his own league, go for it. He might want to chat with Vince McMahan first, however.

Re: Warran Sapp is a victim?????

Personally I think that Sapp is a victim. The league and the officials have treated him so unfairly that it he had no other recourse than to "bump a ref". When you have a talent such as he has, it must be allowed to run un-bridled or run the risk of mediocrity. "The Man", or in this case the league, is forcing Sapp to think about every move on the field because the only way that the rest of the league can compete with Sapps talent is to hobble his outstanding playmaking abilities.<br /><br /> Furthermore, if you believe the dribble that I just wrote, I am sure I can find the title to a bridge somewhere and sell it to you. Sapp has crossed the line too far in my opinion. When a player takes it upon himself to "bump a ref" in order to make a point that player needs to be humbled several steps. <br /><br /> It is obvious that a simple fine will not get the point across. $50,000 fines mean nothing when you make millions. However, suspend him a few games and let the Bucs and other teams see the risk he can be to them, Sapp will see the light. And if he doesn't, I am sure there are others out there with the talent and drive to be equivilent playmakers.<br /><br /> Then again, maybe Sapp is right, that he is a victim. After all, if the league would have responded earlier to these antics of his, then he (Sapp) might have learned his lesson sooner and not be faced with his current situation.<br /><br /> I'm curious if the league will draw a line in the sand with Sapp or allow the inmates to run the asylum.
