Sapp Attack: My Story
In his no-holds-barred memoir, Sapp Attack!, Warren Sapp, one of the NFL's most hilarious and candid personalities, reveals a side of football most fans have never before seen.
Big Man. Big Talent. Big Star. Big Mouth. Big Heart. Big Personality. Big Smile. Big Headlines. Warren Sapp, one of pro football's most dominating defensive players both on and off the field, has a reputation for being bold, brash, knowledgeable, and outspoken. During his All-American career at the University of Miami, 13 seasons as an NFL star, four years on the NFL Network and one very big season on Dancing with the Stars, Sapp has never held back. Now he brings that same fearless attitude to his memoir, a book that will create controversy and headlines; in other words, pure Warren Sapp.
Sapp has won every award possible for a defensive player, but it wasn't just his extraordinarily athletic ability that made him a star; it was also his ability to understand the subtleties of the game. He writes about working his way up from the high school gridiron to one of the top college football programs in the country, to the NFL, and reveals how the system actually works--the behind-the-scenes plays that fans rarely get to see. He'll discuss what it was like to face some of the greatest players in NFL history, including Hall of Famers Steve Young and Jerry Rice, both of whom he put out of the game, and Bret Favre, whom he sacked eleven times during his career. In this revealing, hilarious, and must-read book, Sapp offers readers a look inside the life of one of football's biggest stars and shares his often controversial opinions about the state of pro football today and its future.

With a writer helping him, I thought this book would have been better writen. Reading this, you get an insider look into the NFL, from practice to playing on game day. I'm a Tony Dungy fan and to read how he coached was wonderful to read. This is a fun book to read if your a Sapp fan or a football fan.

Big Sapp fan. Great read that details what goes on in NFL locker rooms.

I was hurt to see that Sapp didn't speak favorably about my Monte Kiffin, but Sapp is my man. He is a great warrior on the field, he's a great communicator, and he can write!

Not the best written book, but I love Warren Sapp as an athlete and a sports commentator. This book is like reliving his football career all over again and that is worth it for me.

Warren Sapp's personality definitely comes through in this book and I enjoyed getting some insight to one of the newest members into the NFL Hall of Fame.

His personality comes through in the book...but it didn't hold my interest for long.

Who knew this guy was a comedian? He is intelligent and articulate.

It was ok. Glad I only spent a buck. Learned some about football. It was scattered and poor grammar. He's quite full of himself
