Warren Sapp Likes the Panthers in a BIG way

Sapp goes on attack


Warren Sapp is still talking tough, even though his Tampa Bay Buccaneers didn't make the playoffs a year after winning the Super Bowl.

On ESPN's "Pardon the Interruption" yesterday, the trash-talking Sapp responded to questions from co-hosts Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser.

When asked his pick for the Super Bowl, Sapp said, "Simple reason: I think this defensive line of Carolina will dominate the front five of New England. I don't even think it's a fair matchup. I don't see how they're getting it done because I think Russ Hochstein started for them in the AFC Championship game and I've seen Russ Hochstein block, and he couldn't block either one of you two fellas. Damien Woody was the best lineman they had, but Russ Hochstein, trust me my friend, he couldn't block either of you two."

And how would Sapp do against the Patriots? "I've already whupped up on them every time they've seen me, so I say the day they beat me is the day I retire, because I am no longer able to play this game like I should."

if that isn't a ringing endorsement for the pats -6.5, i don't know what is.

notice that big-name celebrities/sports stars NEVER make money betting?

I make it a policy to fade these people as much as possible. Just because you know a lot about football doesn't mean you know a thing about handicapping...

Just as college guys are biased by the conference's representative in big games, also are pros by their divisonal or conference foes usually, especially if handled by them..NFC South plug..tough game, I still haven't decided what to do yet?

P.S. You guys are right, while many ex-pros can zero-in on strong winners in spots, the vast majority do horribly trying to grind the longhaul.

I'll be following J.Lo's picks closely, given her $ 250,000.00 bet on the Tampa ML last year.

Think about it -- if Tom Brady, Antowain Smith, and Deion Branch got an e-mail from J.Lo's publicist to the effect of, "Just a reminder that Ms. Lopez has three holes and no plans for the weekend of 6-8 February," that could really effect the outcome of things imho.

Brady -->

Smith and Branch, negotiating over the mouth -->


It could happen.

That was probably from Affleck's pick(he's a player), and we all know where he and Damon are from..win or lose..he is biased on this game.
