I can see where you're coming from, but I think he'll go first ballot. He has all the intangables to get into the HoF (7x Pro Bowler, Defensive PoY,Super Bowl ring, 2nd all-time sacks from the DT position).

HE SHOULD BE A FIRST BALLOT.
But trend shows, it probably wont happen.
Mike Tirico was talkin about it on his show today. Favre is one of the all-time best overall NFL players, wheras, Sapp is one of the all-time best DTs.
I know a lot of y'all got this southern bias, but be real.

you mad dawggie? as i said the point i was trying to make was that a few bad instances can weigh heavily on HOF voters ... theres no doubt he has HOFnumbers, but there have been greater players left off a first ballot, regardless of numbers ... and smh at the great gunna thinkin that everyone loved thisdude ... he called out key a few times just to name one and he expressed that he didnt try as hard when the team had no shot of winning

Im guessing he means Farve is one of the best regardless of position....While Sapp is only one of the best DT's....

We all know HOF voters are just dumb...
it's not unreasonable to not think he won't get in first ballot...
(I think we all agree he SHOULD)
but if anyone watched first and 10 this morning.....you know what I mean, with that Granderson guy talking about his numbers aren't like Strahans orJ.Taylors..well he played DT...
If that's what voters are like and how un knowledgeable they are, it's not a stretch

[h1]NFL threatens to suspend Sapp[/h1]
Associated Press
Updated: October 14, 2003, 10:35 PM ET
TAMPA, Fla. -- The NFL fined Tampa Bay defensive lineman Warren Sapp $50,000 on Tuesday for mistreating officials and threatened him with a suspensionif his behavior doesn't improve.

[/td] [td][size=-2]Sapp[/size][/td] [/tr][/table]
The six-time Pro Bowl selection called the action "unbelievable" and said he feels the league is trying to make an example of him.
"That's all this is about," Sapp said in a telephone interview. "In my nine years in this league, no one's been fined for verballyabusing officials. It's unprecedented."
Sapp hasn't decided if he'll appeal.
"Who do I appeal to?" the All-Pro tackle asked. "We're already at the highest level, the commissioner's office."
NFL director of game operations Peter Hadhazy issued the fine after reviewing Sapp's conduct in three games. Hadhazy said any further misconduct willresult in a suspension of at least one game.
Before last Sunday's game against Washington, Sapp bumped into an official as he entered the field during pregame warmups.
"There was absolutely no need for you to do so," Hadhazy stated in a letter to Sapp. "To the contrary, it is apparent that you deliberatelymade contact with the official. ... This misconduct occurred even though you had been strongly advised by the Buccaneers' management only days before torefrain from taking actions during the pregame warmups that were disruptive to your opponents, disrespectful to the game officials, and in violation of leaguerules regarding unsportsmanlike conduct."
Sapp said he "barely brushed" the official, who turned in his direction to begin moving up the sideline.
"It wasn't intentional. I tried to avoid him," Sapp said. "The ref didn't think anything of it because he knew -- just like I knew --that I didn't try to bump him."
In two earlier games this year, the NFL said Sapp used excessively abusive language to officials.
"Your continuing disrespectful and intimidating conduct has no place in the game," Hadhazy wrote. "You have repeatedly abused game officialsand ignored their directions and authority in at least three of the Buccaneers' games this season."
Sapp disputed that claim, too.
"They're going to fine me for something that happened a month ago? If I verbally abused somebody so bad, you would think there would have been awarning or something," Sapp said. "I just want to see the report and what I supposedly said."
The tackle took exception to the NFL's contention that he ignored directions and verbally abused game officials on Oct. 6 after they tried to warn himagainst disrupting the Indianapolis Colts' pregame routine.
The league pointed out that the incident before the Indianapolis game occurred three weeks after Sapp was penalized for verbal abuse of an official duringTampa Bay's 12-9 loss to Carolina on Sept. 14.
"I didn't say a word in the Indianapolis game. I just kept walking. ... I want to know how much that cost me. And how much did the Carolina gamecost me," Sapp said, adding that the league did not provide a breakdown.
The unsportsmanslike conduct penalty Sapp drew against Carolina occurred on a play in which the Bucs were using him as a tight end on offense.
The flag was thrown at the end of the play when Sapp said he was trying to draw attention to one of the Panthers grabbing Mike Alstott's face mask whenthe fullback was tackled after a short gain.
"You can see me [on replays] pointing at my teammate's face mask," Sapp said. "It's just unbelievable."
(just for arguments sake, and I couldn't actually find a single quote which pointed out Sapp as a bad teammate)

and smh at the great gunna thinkin that everyone loved this dude ... he called out key a few times just to name one and he expressed that he didnt try as hard when the team had no shot of winning
the key word is SAPP CALLED OUT KEYSHAWN. and what happened to Keyshawn, he got kicked off the team in Tampa .
Now tell me "who expressed he didnt try as hard when the team had no shot of winning?" If you say Sapp, ur full of ***%.
using Keyshawn as some great judge of character. same guy who called out a 5'7 Wayne Chrebet who was puttin up similar numbers to the #1 draft pick
same guy ridiculing Marvin Harrison on the sideline of a game...
You can try to be condescending and add "Great" to my name ( like thats hurtful) , I dont really mind,
but I know more about Football than you do, plain and simple. so if that makes u call me great, Cool.

"WHY DON'T YOU PUT ON A JERSEY?!"
Sapp later called Sherman: "a lying, +@+%-eating hound. … If I was 25 years old and didn't have a kid and a conscience, I would have given him an#!#-kicking right there at the 30-yard line."
And lol, the skipping through the warmups..
dude was comedy
