Ryan Kerrigan's Sack Celebration Was A Tribute To Shawn Michaels
Ryan Kerrigan leads the NFL with four sacks, which is impressive because he didn't have any last week. (Playing the Jaguars is good for the soul and for the stats; Washington racked up 10 sacks of poor Chad Henne.) On his first and fourth of the afternoon, Kerrigan went into a squatting, flexing c...

OTL sat down with Redskins owner Daniel Snyder and his moist upper lip to discuss the controversy over the team's nickname.
