Former NFL defensive lineman Warren Sapp likely will be the next football player to trade in his shoulder pads for dancing shoes.
Sapp, according to the St. Petersburg Times, plans to accept an offer to appear on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.
The former Buccaneer and Raider would join former NFL players Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith and current Miami Dolphins defensive end Jason Taylor as participants in the show.
Sapp also said that he’d like to have a radio show, and that he’s not necessarily interested in television.
“I don’t want to go to [ESPN] every week for a two-hour show,” Sapp said. ”I want something short and sweet. I’d love to have a radio gig, just turn on the mic and talk about the topics of the day.”
We also envision Sapp, who was notorious for having a chunk of smokeless tobacco in his mouth, becoming the next Walt Garrison.

Nice to hear that Warren Sapp thinks the totality of radio broadcasting is “just turing on a mic.”

Who would be the unfortunate female opposite the “newest” “Dancing with the Tards”?

Sapp has been embarrassing himself with his mouth for years. It will be refreshing to see him embarrass himself with his feet.

Too bad this didn’t air on the FOX network, that why they could have made Micheal Strahan one of the judges. Or have him be a guest judge on one of the shows. Now that would be great TV.

All I can envision in my minds eye is Sapp shaking his ass (it was supposed to emulate Beyonce, but looked more like he was auditioning for a Juvenile “Back that thing up” music video) after he scored that touchdown years ago. If it is that, with fancy shoes instead of cleats, i’m gonna puke.
That image, that terrible, terrible image. uhhhhhhhuhhhhh*shudder*

If my d–k were as big as Sapp’s ego, I would be a porno star.
Where does he get off thinking anybody wants to listen to his dribble now that he is done with football. I don’t know how to break it to you Warren but your 15 minutes are up, here are you complimentary passes to tonight’s races at the dog track.
You weren’t even that great to begin with and your career’s most memorable play was a cheap blind side hit on Chad Clifton on a INT return where he was not looking at at least 30 yards away from the ball. Now that you are done with football (you were done playing professional football the day you signed with the Raiders), I for one look forward to not having to see or hear you anymore. Try to keep your end of the bargain.
