WARREN SAPP is so underrated! He’s low key a GOAT & he doesn’t get even close to the recognition that he deserves.

Warren Sapp is hands down a walking football historian/statistician/storyteller/ commentator/analyst just listening to him is pure genius!!!🏈❤️

I said this in another post, he is intimidating, brilliant, charming and you love to listen to him talk about football for ever.

The final part of this broke my heart. Sapp knows his end is coming. But I'm glad he got his flowers!

Listening to a defensive tackle talking about knowing everyone’s role and what they’re supposed to be doing is incredible.

Just like Ryan said, the crew got to relax this time...Sapp carried the show!

Sapp is MAGICAL! I haven't seen anybody talk football or tell stories like him. The excitement. The details. the knowledge & understanding of the game, plays and positions. Sapp is something special. Salute to ONE OF THE BEST EVER ✊🏾💯

Every time I watch an episode of the pivot I say “this was better than the last”. Warren Sapp episode is top 5. Love this show man.

Sapp itching to be on the pivot. It's the perfect platform for him. He has so much knowledge and wisdom about the game and life to impart. That cte part definitely hits home, I feel that way at times. I feel Fred, it's scary to realize that can be your future. I wish this episode was at least a half hour longer or had a part 2.

Being a lifelong Bucs fan this interview was everything. Sapp has been interviewed plenty of times in the past but this interview shows every aspect of what makes this man so great. I was hoping for it to go on another couple of hours.

They had to take him off

To some of the young bucks that never saw Sapp play. All I gotta say is the man was a wrecking machine. That Tampa defense was insane, Rice on the outside, him and Booger McFarland on this inside. Qbs had NO TIME to throw the football, and they very rarely had to ever blitz. The way he could collapse the pocket from the inside was just crazy, and he was equally as good against the run. As an Eagles fan that 02 NFC Championship game still gives me nightmares.

Hearing Warren Sapp talk about forgetting where he going and Fred Taylor talking about his granny having dementia is what people need to hear. To see a vivacious person full of life close to you deteriorate thru the years are some of the hardest experiences to have...CTE and brain trauma are no joke and we are are affected by it, regardless of financial status. It's a blessing to have great health & your mind intact along with a loving bond with your family... That's wealth to me

I can definitely see Sapp being a special guest host when someone has to miss a episode

Sapp Interviews are always a banger! He’s so animated but yet insightful

I got diagnosed with Memory loss too Warren severe Social anxiety and depression. Mental illness is so real especially when you look perfectly healthy. I Love you brother God Bless You 🙏💪

literally blown away by how relatable and cool sapp is. for some reason growing in the early 2000s sapp was portrayed as a beast like grumpy guy even though he played with so much joy. and I probably fell victim to that because I never held him in a positive light but after watching this I have a new respect and appreciation for him. very well spoken, open and transparent. and he has a genuine soul, we all make mistakes and I pray he continues to live with the same joy for the rest of his time. 99

Not the struggle, the pride, passion, exuberance or style. So when they saw these things from large powerful men that didn’t look like them, many mislabeled them in negative ways.

I loved this. The way this started off and to hear a Hall of Famer give the respect he gave he gave the men he went up against isthe truest respect ever! Real men respect real men.

Another great show, I have an 8-year-old who loves football but I refuse to let him play before High School because I believe CTE is real. The fact that Sapp shared his CTE episode is priceless and hit my soul as a Hurricanes fan. I really hope parents listen.

this is the type of show/interview that makes fans love you guys, keep it going and keep up the great work. I really enjoy the stories about the players' journey throughout their career.

This show made me miss my father and listening to him talk about sports and life 😢 😪 💔 I don't get to hear these conversations anymore

This is one of the best episodes of the pivot! Sapp is extremely eloquent speaking and very knowledgeable about the history of the game. He also has a great perspective on life and the importance of education. Great job guys!

Sapp was entertaining on the NFL Network back in the day. His gift of gab has always been a talent of his, entertaining, charismatic, knowledgeable, great story teller etc...

Wherever Sapp goes, he leaves his mark. Charismatic and honest dude! Plus smart and experienced.

I am a FL man ( Duvalllllllll ) I appreciate Sapp relaying how intelligent he was in the game. I was thought of as a dumb jock. Love this show.

Hope they still make them like Sapp. He is gold.

You can tell Sapp understands how serious CTE is by the way he changed his body language and just his demeanor. I only played up to High School football, had 3 concussions that I can remember and played through them. CTE scares me. Can’t even imagine how someone who played in the NFL feels about CTE. Great interview YET AGAIN.

I love when guest come on here & tell them untold stories… we never knew!

That was an awesome interview. As RC stated nothing like when a guess carry the show. I love how the pivot guys just ask a question, and let the guests answer with no interruptions. Once again, great show, can’t wait until the next one drops. Warren Sapp 🔥🔥🔥🔥
