Just call Warren twinkletoes!

    Warren Sapp and his "Dancing With the Stars" partner Kym Johnson have made it to next week's three-team finals. Can Sapp keep the sports star DWTS winning streak alive and become the second ex-NFL player to win?

     Emmitt Smith was a champion in season 3 and Olympic speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno, race car driver Helio Castroneves and figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi have continued the sports-dancer tradition.

   Sapp and Johnson are apparently taking the finals seriously. Johnson is making arrangements to travel to Pittsburgh this week with Sapp, who will be at Heinz Field for his NFL Network duties before the Steelers-Cincinnati Bengals' Thursday night game.

     You've got to practice, practice, practice to win the DWTS dancing disco ball trophy. Almost as hard as Sapp had to work to help the Tampa Bay Bucaneers win that Vince Lombardi Super Bowl trophy.
