McNabb and Green don't seem to have the street smarts that Sapp does so the story makes sense.

If you don't know someone well enough to recognize that it's not their voice on the phone, why the hell would you send them money?

I guess you can pick out the idiots by looking at them.

Maybe they should have called Emmitt Smith first.

Guy probably called and told them something about him being a Nigerian prince and had $50 million in a locked account. To unlock the account, he needed $50K and would share half of that with the person who wires it to him.

If you look up "Super Genius" in the dictionary, there's a pic of Sapp right next to it!

After persuading [Darrell] Green and [Donovan] McNabb to wire him money, Sills called [Warren] Sapp, who became suspicious, police said. The Oakland Raiders defensive lineman's financial manager contacted police, who arrested Sills after he picked up money he believed was from Sapp. Who would have thought that out of those three, Sapp would be the one to catch on to the scam?!?! But I guess Sills appealed to Green's Christian decency and charitable nature, and McNabb is about as "street" as Peyton Manning, so I guess it makes sense that Sapp is the suspicious one, always lookin' over his shoulder like a common street thug killa'.

McNabb and Green don't seem to have the street smarts that Sapp does so the story makes sense. Are you suggesting that people in Sapp's circle pull this kind of scam all the time, so he recognized the M.O.? ;)
