Message: <blockquote data-quote="herald" data-source="post: 494515" data-attributes="member: 1112">A man twice Sapp's age should have the wisdom, and knowledge not to cross the field and tell Sapp to f-off when Sapp extended his hand in good sportsmanship to him. And I have to ask, has no one else been treated badly and wanted to do to take it out on someone with blows. I know I have, lucky for me that common sense had kept me from doing it. In Florida assault charges wouldn't hold up. Sapp told him that if he was so big, why didn't he put on a jersey. He stated later what he wanted to do to him because he was explaining to the reported what he wanted to do after the coach had insulted him on national TV. He obviously thought better of it because he didn't. And don't think for a moment that Sherman's security could have done anything about it. Assault (as far as Florida goes) is when you make a clear threat to another persons safety. "Put on a jersey" doesn't cut it.But assault charges are pointless when you are discussing sports. No one arrests Football player, Baseball Players, Hockey Player or any other team sport as far as I know for minor flareups like this. Sport radio in this area has been putting on other team's player's comments on the radio, as far as they are concerned, it's all in a day's work.</blockquote>
