Warren Sapp Files for Bankruptcy...Lets Take A Look at His "Assets"


TMZ - Future NFL Hall-of-Famer Warren Sapp has filed for bankruptcy ... claiming he's racked up millions of dollars in debts ... but worst of all, dude claims he LOST his 2002 Super Bowl ring...According to the docs, Sapp owes more than $6.7 million to various creditors ... including hundreds of thousands of dollars in child support payments and alimony to at least 4 different baby mamas. Among the debts, Sapp says he owes $853k to the IRS for 2006 and another $89k for 2010. Sapp says he also owes $2,858 in medical bills for "Corrective Speech and Language Therapy." Sapp says he only has $6.45 million to his name ... and lists all of his assets in the documents ... which include:

-- 240 pairs of Jordan sneakers and sandals
-- Large Nude women painting
-- Lion skin rug (female - lioness)
-- Nike golf clubs
-- De Grisogono watch (scratch on crystal, nicks and scratches on band)
-- A boxing glove signed by Muhammad Ali

But most interestingly, Sapp notes he has LOST two of his most treasured and valuable possessions -- the 2002 Super Bowl ring he won with the Tampa Bay Bucs (example below) and the National Championship ring he won with the Miami Hurricanes... In the docs, Sapp also lists his current salary as an analyst for the NFL Network as $45k per month ... $540k per year. Sapp says his deal with the NFL Network expires in August and he's not sure if the network will extend his deal.

And that folks, is how you go broke making $540k per year, after making millions during a 13 year NFL career. I mean, are you kidding me Warren? Sell some of those goddamn Jordans and you're probably back in the black. Sell the large nude women painting...what the fuck do you even need that for, you have high speed internet, right? Stream that shit online for free. 

Plus, I didn't even think you could claim bankruptcy like that...openly admitting you have $6.45 million to your name...that's only 250k less than you owe! That's 6 months work for you! Hell, show up at some Nike high school football camp and you can probably clear your debt by Christmas. That's what I never get about these guys...they can keep going on making appearances and rolling in more bank than I make in a year, and yet...they're IDIOTS. Like, here I am thinking Sapp did things right, got a job after his playing career ended instead of spending his days making it rain in "da club," only to find out the dude is one of those assholes trampling people at the mall every time a new pair of Jordans is released.  It's almost enough to make you give up hope about all athletes.

PS: What the hell did he need speech therapy for? For his tv gigs? I thought former athletes were just on air to give a show some credibility, move their hands wildly, and cackle at their friends jokes...it's not like they have to give coherent opinions or anything.

Double PS: Jordan must get a huge grin on his face everytime he reads one these stories, right? Grown men, famous athletes, losing everything in pursuit of his shoes...meanwhile Mike probably just rocks a comfy pair of boat shoes around the house, winning the game of life like no one else before.
