Warren Sapp better stop playin! Yes, the feud continues. Warren Sapp is back to ripping Michael Strahan. He doesn’t think Strahan belongs in the Hall of Fame. Well guess what?! Strahan gives zero f*cks what Sapp thinks. C’mon Sapp, stop hating son!!! We got your back Michael!!! #GMEN
Check out what both of them had to say…
Via ESPN:
“Football was part of my life, but it is not my entire life,” said the former New York Giants defensive end, who’s one of 15 finalists for Saturday’s Pro Football Hall of Fame election. “So for some guys, maybe that’s their entire life and that’s all they have to hold onto. Playing football, sacking quarterbacks, that was part of my life, and I did it and I moved on. The tiger does not pay attention to the opinion of the sheep.”
Sapp, the former Tampa Bay Buccaneerspass-rusher, was elected to the Hall of Fame last year. But he has been openly critical of Strahan’s candidacy for reasons that Strahan says elude him. Sapp spoke at Super Bowl Media Day in Newark on Tuesday and reiterated his case against Strahan’s election.
“I don’t think his resume stacks up,” Sapp said, listing Tony Dungy, Walter Jones, Marvin Harrison and Derrick Brooks as more deserving candidates on this year’s ballot. “Four straight Pro Bowls and a mythical sack record. When you really measure it up, he comes up short, except you all are giving it to him.”

“I am. I’m all hype,” Strahan said. “I lasted 15 years, all hype. I had 141.5 career sacks, all hype. I was always a starter. I played left end, and that made me get sacks. My coaches kept putting me in the game because they felt it gave us the best chance to win, and that was all hype.”

“If you make it in anywhere, it doesn’t matter,” Strahan said. “To be honest with you, I get reminded of it by everybody else. I don’t think about it. If I make it in, that would be awesome. If I make it in in New York, that would be double-incredible.”
As for the opinion of Sapp, the very first thing Strahan said when asked about his comments Tuesday likely speak the loudest.
“I’m glad he doesn’t have a vote,” Strahan said.
