Sharper ups the ante with Shiancoe

Earlier today, Vikings coach Brad Childress said that he’ll eventually “reel in” the Twitter feud between Minnesota tight end Visanthe Shiancoe and Saints safety Darren Sharper.

It might be time for Chilly to start cranking the Zebco 404.

In response to Shiancoe’s posting of an image of Osama bin Laden saying, “I’m Darren Sharper,” Sharper had this to say:  “ok homeboy you done went too far, making me out to
be something that has brought this country alot of heartache.
  Imma bust you right under your chinstrap from the
first play on. I don’t care about the fine. F the money Imma do it for
the red, white & blue. 
And you’ll see me cuz I’ll be dressed in black
& gold. Protect your neck that’s all the warning you get.”

If Sharper hasn’t already heard from the league office, he undoubtedly will.  Shiancoe, too.

  1. I speak da Engish yo.
    my God man, he is not only college educated but he is an older guy too. Why does he have to make himself look even dumber by speaking like an uneducated thug?
    this is some HS drama stuff now. Even worse than when OchoCinco and Merriman talked back and forth.

  2. As a retired vet, send these 2 idioits to Iraq or Afghanistan for 6-9 months and see hwo they liek it.. with the military pay, not the NFL pay!!!

  3. And you’ll see me cuz I’ll be dressed in black & gold. Protect your neck that’s all the warning you get.

    this is the latest update on his twitter. he must be the Jza. Or is he the Rza?

  4. DAaAAAaAAaaAammmMN!!! Week 1 is gonna be awesome ………. They both took it a bit too far, but Sharper is going to get the worst of whatever punishment there might be.
    What started all this jawing back and forth anyway? ( im guessing it started after the Saints beat the Vikings…but what/who initiated all this?)

  5. i love Shaper but he knows well enough that the original and only true Black n Gold is in Pittsburgh …. NO Saints will find that out first handed around week 12 or 13 .

  6. from the first play on and the garunteed last play, because thats an ejection and likely suspension

  7. DARREN SHARPER is a phuking moron, he’s started the X marks the spot, NOW he’s gonna “bust [Shiancoe] right under [his] chinstrap from the first play” for “the red, white & blue”?? WTF is he SMOKING (i want some), talk about EXTREMISTS…just dont park your “vehicle” mistiriously infront of SHIANCOE’s house…”making me out to be something that has brought this country alot of heartache”…wtf? the NEXT EMMIT SMITH…all talent on field…SARAH PALIN off…

  8. If I were sharper, id be scared of Visanthe Shiancoe’s THIRD leg….
    signed…
    towel

  9. kinda reminds me of Sarah Palin feigning outrage at David Letterman. It was funny, relax, you were the one saying you’re going after Favre.

  10. This totally reminds me of when Sgt. Slaughter was a bad guy and then turned into a good guy and kicked the heck of the Iron Sheik. Camel Clutch this, Darren Sharper.

  11. Sharper is an old punk and the Vikings are going to run a train on the Saints… the same way way BP just ran a train on your guys’ coastline.

  12. Blah Blah Blah Sharper, you ain’t gon’ do shit!!! That was wrong though on Shiancoe’s part!!!

  13. Sharpie will be a lil heavier on the PEDs before that one. Personally, that remark deserves reprimand.

  14. good for sharper. i hope he knocks shianco out cold, and then laughs in his passed out face.
    favre will give him a chance at it too, cuz he’ll throw the ball in there with no regard to how effed up the reciever will get.

  15. Shiancoe should be suspended for the Osama thing, what a terrible display of insensitivity. Its one thing to run your mouth as a fan, but for a NFL player to make a public display like that for all NFL fans to see that is so offensive to the nation is beyond words. I hope Shiancoe gets to meet Osama before his head gets chopped off by a terrorist.
    I’m a big time Sharper fan right now and hope he follows through Week 1.
    Down with Shiancoe!!!

  16. Let’s go Shank. Time to put the safety with all talk and no walk on the ground. He’s got nothing on the Vikings receivers.

  17. Girl Scouts aren’t even afraid of Sharper, the NFL safety known as much for avoiding a tough hit and piling on after the fact as much as anything. I’m sure the Vikings won’t sleep a wink knowing Darren’s PO’d.
    It wasn’t even Shank that put the Sharper picture up on the firing range — it was a soldier. Is Sharper now pissed at the Minnesota National Guard too?

  18. I used to respect Sharper – what a dork he’s become.
    “I’ll be in black & gold” ??? You’re lucky you are, you 1yr contract – year after year charity case. 10 to 1 says he’s not even lined up on the first play, or any there after.

  19. Sharper is an old punk and the Vikings are going to run a train on the Saints… the same way way BP just ran a train on your guys’ coastline.
    Percy Nugz – Go phuck yourself…. As far as running a train on the saints you did a real good job of that last year. Blah blah refs screwed us…blah blah blah….the saints defense was mean to our qb….blah blah blah….we fumble like crazy….blah blah blah x marks the spot Favre to Porter…blah blah blah our coach is a pussy.
    Same ole vikings….

  20. and shiancoe had to pull that stunt so close to memorial day ? i hope sharper , while wearing black and gold, turns shiancoe black and blue, for the red white and blue….

  21. Considering Shank was given the Osama target by a Minnesota National Guardsman, who are going to be shipped overseas in the near future, I think we can disregard the whole patriotism, red, white and blue, terrorist beheadings.
    Shank and Sharper PLAY football!!!!

  22. Darren Sharper has not hit any one in the chin strap since 96. He goes hi, Shank stays low. Take care of those old-or shall i say “new” knees.

  23. I think I get where Shiancoe was going with the Osama thing, put a big beard on Sharper and he’d look just like Osama (plus he threatened to destroy Favre’s ankle, just like a terrorist). And all you flagwavers get over it, it is a joke about Sharper, who does not represent America. On a side note, Sharper better hope he banks his paychecks, cuz he sure doesn’t have a bright future after football, unless he goes into politics. Or maybe he can be a writer on this site?

  24. I love how the word Thug is becoming the new N-bomb. Quit being pussies and just say it. We already know “who you wit”anyway. Stop trying to be slick peckerwood..

  25. Sharper is afraid of tackling a tackling dummie….I wonder how many teammates he will need to tackle shiancoe. what a tool, every player in the nfl knows sharpers aversion to contact…..he must be preparing for his next career in the WWF.

  26. “Sharper is an old punk and the Vikings are going to run a train on the Saints… the same way way BP just ran a train on your guys’ coastline.”
    This is what you get when mother’s and son’s have kids together. Keep it classy inbred.

  27. lol im not even a saints or vikings fan but i think its hilarious everyone wants Shiancoe suspended
    i mean c’mon are you guys serious??? it was sharper that started the whole feud saying he was gonna go after favres ankle if anyone gets suspended it will be both of them or none at all

  28. says the guy who’s afraid to come put a hit on ad. he’ll be too afraid to come hit either back under the chin strap. shianc will rock him, also…

  29. If anyone thinks Sharper stands a chance of doing anything other than get his ass beat within an inch of his life by Shiancoe… you’re an idiot.

  30. when he busts him under the chinstrap, he should watch out for AP or Toby Gerhart

  31. Good Luck Sharpie……but to bust Shank under the chinstrap would require you to take the right angle! And what to do once you catch him…..he outweighs you by 50lbs! Stick to targeting the ankles of 40 year old QBs….at least your coaches are teaching that!

  32. Remember that it was NOT SHiancoe that made the Osama thing…it was our servicemen that put a 42 on Osama’s picture, then shot it to shit…
    Shiancoe did NOTHING wrong here…
    Sharper just sounds like a insecure little girl here…

  33. They both look stupid at this point, but the tie-breaker goes to Sharper for: 1) starting it all in the first place, and 2) talking like an illiterate ghetto punk.

  34. It’s a free country just them talk smack. C’mon this country allows jokes about our president. That is unheard of in most places. Freedom of speech. Way too many sensitive ears…

  35. Percy Nugz……..Really??? Again shows the classless people Minnesota has.
    TWO DAT!!!

  36. Hating on Sharper’s play on the field is laughable. All-pro this past season, tied for league-lead in INTs, oh yeah…and a Lombardi. “Afraid to hit”? Kevin Faulk disagrees.

    I could eat alphabet soup and shit better trash talk, maggot! I tell you one thing he has got that the Queen WR’s don’t have, that’s a damn SUPER BOWL RING!!!
    TWO DAT!!

  38. George W. Bush just made finding Darren Sharper and bringing him to justice his #1 priority.

    Nice screen name, if not for the fact that your team wears purple AND hails from a state with the highest “HOMO” population per capita in the entire country. Who’s fans are the “HOMO”?? LOL Dumbass!!

  40. @whodaywhodat
    Like I said before, he had as much to do with NO winning the Super Bowl as Trent Dilfer did with the Ravens winning in 2000. Shank’s going to put him in the ground and do the Sharper shake dance in the end zone. We Dat!

  41. Sharper is one of the softest hitting safeties in the NFL. His threat via tweet is pretty childish and weak.
    Being a safety he can easily protect himself but if Brees takes a low shot and goes down I hope his team mates wake him up in the middle of the night and beat him with pillow cases stuffed with bars of soap. USMC style.

  42. viscan’t-e shankoe is an above average player…
    sharper was an all pro last yr….
    don’t forget the equalizer…favre chucking up passes as someone is breaking his other ankle….
    chucking up a few passes in sharpers direction is generally not a good thing….now running at him is another thing altogether…..

  43. Sharper must be getting senile in his old age. Straight up, Shiancoe would f@ck Sharper up. Sharper better watch his mouth before gets seriously hurt.
    I can see it now, AD takes the handoff, Shiancoe goes out to block, Sharper tries to come up for the tackle, and he gets clipped at the knees by Shiancoe. I will laugh my ass off if that happens. It will serve Sharper right for talking so much sh@t behind a keyboard.

    He must of learned this “keyboard smash talking” in Minnesota, because that is about all Queen fans are good at. Just remember, regular season chumps, you WILL make the playoffs. You might possibly win a game in the playoffs. But your heart will be RIPPED out again just in the nick of time by your Lord Favre. Biggest choker in the game on the biggest choking team in NFL/sports world. Coincidence??? Hardly.

  45. lets! just see how the game plays out!!!!!two dat!!!!
    can u say repeat….i knew that you could!!!!!!

  46. Talk about reinventing the wheel – how many times do idiots like this have to be shown that juvenile behavior like this only hurts them, their teams, and in this case maybe the QBs on both teams. Not to mention making everybody mad and some a little poorer.
    And to think I was proud of Shiancoe for allowing Sharper to take the lead in stupidity. Now they look alike.

  47. Well, with names like “Shank” and Sharper we know they will choose swords over guns if it comes down to it.

  48. Roger Goodell is to blame for this stupidity…had he not instructed the refs to give the Aints there Super Bowl..there would be no hard feelings

  49. The only person being stupid in this dispute is Visanthe Shiancoe. He’s clearly a mindless moron. I’d love to hear his rationale for using the OBL image. That would be a laugh.
    Btw, Vikings Bin Losin’, Vikings Bin Bitchin’, Vikings Bin Fumblin’, Vikings Bin Whinin’, and Vikings Bin Chokin’

  50. This is what happens when you take shots at a legend. Sharper… dead… Aints… dead… The Dutta Man… dead

  51. I find it so adorable to see Viking’s fans talk smack. Remember a year ago when you were so excited about the new QB and everyone reminded you he’s the all-time NFL leader in interceptions? Lots of smack back then too. You’d think fans of a franchise that has never won a Super Bowl might have gotten filled up with humble pie but comments like this rightfully makes one think you’re a few bricks shy of a full load.
    Win something, then feel free to dis all you want, until then just bend over and try to enjoy it.

  52. @gregjenningsfanclub,
    Ahhh, are you still hurting from last season? Grow the heck up. You start off by saying Shiancoe went too far with that pic, and you end up saying you hope Osama cuts his head off. Huh? That’s like complaining about a guy doing a hit and run that doesn’t result in a serious injury while you run someone over and kill them and keep on driving. Was the pic going too far? Yeah, it probably was. Sharper started this thing, however, by joking around about trying to seriously injure one of Shiancoe’s teammates. A teammate that was, by all reports, well liked by the rest of the team. Note to Sharper: you’re coming back from freaking microfracture surgery! You’re probably going to be the most fragile player on the field. Before you try and create a bounty bowl, you better make sure you’re not likely to end up stuffed and mounted on an opponents wall. All of this is rather stupid. If you want to have a blood match on the field, keep your mouth shut about it in public. They’re making such a big deal about it that the league and refs can’t do anything but clamp down on any questionable hit. That’s especially true given the fact that the league already felt the need to issue fines after the last game, despite the non-calls on the field. This whole twitter battle thing is about as smart as two school kids letting the teacher know they’re planning on fighting in front of the school as soon as classes are over. Some one will break it up.

    you go and call what shiancoe did a terrible display of insensitivity. then you say you hope he gets decapitated. i would think wishing decapitation on someone is a lot more insensitive than saying someone is like bin laden.
    you’re a hypocrite.
    oh and sharper started this whole thing…and basically admitted the saints defense, or at least sharper himself, is dirty and can’t get it done without hurting people.

    And how would you know this? Never mind, I don’t think I want to know, because something tells me it’s first hand knowledge.

  57. It is very hard to trash talk a fanbase that embraces its own US leading illiteracy rate. They just reply who dat and pretend they can’t read your post.
    But in all seriousness, Sharper started this feud by coming out of the blue and threatening to injure our starting QB. Shiancoe was visiting Camp Ripley to support our troops and they, knowing of the feud, set up the firing squad dummy.
    Now Sharper is trying to pull the “you went too far” card on something he started. The funny part is that he is using this “I’ll do it for the red white and blue” angle when it was our troops that set up his firing dummy for Shiancoe.
    Face it Sharper, you got owned in your little Twitter feud you started.

  58. Sharper pulling the patriotic tweets out justified with his cheap shot promises. amazing. the nfl is a professional junior high school. it’s only more reason to not like anything about it. what a bunch of morons. both of them.

  59. Hey Vikings Fans:
    Super Bowl Victories:
    New Orleans Saints: 1
    Minnesota Vikings: 0, zero, zilch, goose egg, nada nothing!!!!!
    No Super Bowl Victories for you!!!!
    None!!!!!
    You don’t have any!!!!
    Vikings will always suck ballz. And you fans know it.

  60. The Vikes should resign Brock Lesner & have him patrol the sidelines to keep the peace. 😉

  61. Shiancoe’s reference was over the top. Just remember what team will display the World Champion Banner. It’s interesting in MN, once you leave the twin cities the literacy rate drops substantially.

  62. sharper started it , dont be mad that visante took it to another level , his parody was whack anyways, i dunno why sharper would even take offense to that, i would just laugh that off, like yeah ok buddy…
    but i see something wrong with 2 grown men in the NFL on twitter to begin with…
    I just cant imagine Ronnie Lott or Dave Casper NFL greats in their respected positions battling it out via behind a keyboard and online.
    Both of you just concentrate on the season and whats happening on the field, the rest is irrelevant
    NEITHER will determine the ultimate outcome of the game.
    I’m guessing the play of Favre and Brees will have a slighter impact on who wins, dont you think?

    without looking up literacy rates between minnesota and louisiana, i’d be willing to bet louisiana’s is worse.

    look at all you saints fans that suddenly are wearing bigboy pants cus you won a super bowl.
    now saints fans think they’re so damn good that they’re on par with the historical greatness of the bears and packers and think they can shit-talk like fans of those two teams do.
    talk shit when the saints prove to not be a flash in the pan.
    i used to be a fan of the saints, until their fans started acting like a bunch of illiterate mongoloids (much like packer fans) and idiotically spout off about number of super bowls won now that they’ve finally won one of them.
    here’s a lil FYI for people that love to shout that from the rooftops. we don’t really care. are we suddenly supposed to have realized they haven’t won a super bowl and so we shouldn’t back our favorite team?
    if (that’s right blind hope vikes fans, i said if) the vikings ever win a super bowl, i hope to whatever god is up there that MOST (every team has idiots following them, mine is no different) fans don’t act like a bunch of idiots and stupidly spout off crap that makes a caveman sound like einstein. saints fans i’m looking at you.

    I do have substantial facts to back up my statement. I taught Economics at U of M (Twin Cities) for 4 years. In the summer I would accept assignments in satellite locations such as Duluth and Morris and I have encountered the most uneducated people. I decided to research literacy rates in those 2 communities and was appalled by my findings. People do identify their city with the success of a sports franchise…..think of all the Steelers fans. I am currently residing in a city that’s baseball team in doing well and the morale has greatly picked up. People say “hello” as you pass them on the subway. As a Saints fan I realize that our franchise has had many losing seasons. Our history is not as storied as the 49ers, Cowboys, Steelers or Patriots. You may not like it but the Saints have become America’s team.

    ——————————————————–
    so because you taught economics at a university, that makes you the authority on literacy rates? and because you went to TWO satellite locations all of a sudden you’re this beacon of knowledge about the entire state?
    and you compared those “findings” to other places in the state and then came to that conclusion? and did you also take into account that probably every state has a drop in literacy rate when you get out of the bigger cities?
    you didn’t? so you’re just trying to inject some “science” into your ignorant comment? that’s what i figured. and you still haven’t provided these “substantial facts” you speak of.
    “i taught economics at the U so i know things and it makes me smart enough to comment on things i only think i know about.” what a joke.
    any “teacher” worth his salt knows that you can’t base your claims off of experience in only TWO of the sample areas that you claim to know so much about.
    you’re still an ignorant fool if you base your statement on those “facts”…and the idea that you teach others is a little disconcerting.
    the saints aren’t america’s team. the cowboys weren’t either when they and the media claimed them to be. the saints are lousiana’s team and to say otherwise is awfully arrogant.
    if by america’s team you mean they happened to win the super bowl then i guess america usually has a different team every year huh? gimme a break, “teach”.

  66. I love it when people call out Sharper’s style of writing (tweeting, speaking, whatever) for it’s “uneducated feel”, then proceed to drop a deuce all over the English language in their response.
    As for the story, this is dumb. I wouldn’t even care if I were an NFL coach. My response would be, “If you want to pay the fine for that, do it. Knock yourself out (literally).” Y-A-W-N. (Yet Another Weak Non-story).
