Kris Jenkins: Sapp's "soul stinks"
"I hate him. Everybody says I'm supposed to be polite when I talk to you all, but I hate him," Jenkins said. " He talks too much, he doesn't make sense, he's fat, he's sloppy, he acts like he's the best thing since sliced bread. He's ugly, he stinks, his mouth stinks, his breath stinks, and basically his soul stinks, too. Not too many people have personalities like that and survive in life. I don't know how he does it."

He's about 10x better than Sapp.CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Sidelined with a shoulder injury most of last season, Kris Jenkins struggled to find something to fill his days. He tried video games, watching movies, and playing with his young son.
But without a strict schedule to follow, and unable to work out while he recovered from surgery, the Carolina Panthers' defensive tackle, an All-Pro in 2003, fell into a downward spiral.
The low point came after the Panthers' Nov. 7 loss to the Oakland Raiders, when Jenkins was forced to watch Warren Sapp, a player he dislikes intensely, celebrate on Carolina's field.
Jenkins turned to drinking to get him through the long, lonely days.
"When we played Oakland and we lost to Sapp, I stopped going to the games then," Jenkins said Thursday. "I was going to the games up to that point. I couldn't go to the games anymore. After that, that's when ... I've never been an alcoholic, but I upped my consistency of it.
"It was something where I did a lot more sitting around the house, and I would come in and get treatment, and that was it. I wouldn't do anything. If I had my son, I'd take care of him but if I didn't, I wouldn't do anything."
As hard as it is to believe that one rival player could send Jenkins into such a funk, he said that all his problems escalated after that game.
"I hate him. Everybody says I'm supposed to be polite when I talk to you all, but I hate him," Jenkins said. "He talks too much, he doesn't make sense, he's fat, he's sloppy, he acts like he's the best thing since sliced bread. He's ugly, he stinks, his mouth stinks, his breath stinks, and basically his soul stinks, too.
"Not too many people have personalities like that and survive in life. I don't know how he does it."
Messages left with the Raiders were not immediately returned.
"Not to speak for Warren, but I wouldn't even waste his time bringing this to his attention," said Drew Rosenhaus, Sapp's agent.
For the first three years of Jenkins' career, his rivalry with Sapp helped turn him into one of the NFL's most dominating defensive tackles. He was the anchor of Carolina's defense, one of the most vaunted in the league.

At the top of his game, Sapp was better than Jenkins. And I loved his whole act. Then he dissed Strahan whose jock he shall never be able to lift. So fuck him.
