Sapp on Lynch: "Best I ever played with"

The reaction to the John Lynch news is already rolling in.

First up: Warren Sapp.

He just responded to a text message from colleague Rick Stroud, saying the following about Lynch: "He's the best strong safety I ever played with and the second best safety ever behind only Ronnie Lott -- period."

The big man has spoken and I wouldn't dare take issue with him.

Warren, I have not always agreed with you in the past, but your assessment here is spot on!

Sapp, Lynch and Alstott. All great guys, players and all future HOF inductees!!!!!

Sapp's comment isn't exactly an unqualified complement. He says that Lynch was "the best I ever played with", but you have to remember that Sapp only ever played with Lynch and whatever retards the Raiders had at Safety.

Why does the St. Pete Times allow The Iron Sheik trash talk on this forum? Who are these low life trashy people?
