Lost in the shuffle (predictably) of Bret Favre's retirement, Warren Sapp announced his official retirement from the NFL according to ESPN.com. In a moment of symmetry, the announcement comes on the same day as Favre's. Sapp will be forever linked with Favre for their so-called "feud" when Sapp played on the Bucs, and Tampa Bay and Green Bay were both in the same division.
At the height of his career, Sapp was the most dominant defensive lineman in the game. He was also one of the greatest "mouths" in the game, never at a loss for words or a good quote. The NFL media will never be the same.
