ST #21 The Grim Reaper. He just absolutely murders people on the field. With the way he's be playing lately, I think we'll need more body bag in Tampa.

my vote goes to "interstate 66"
May #21 never be worn again by another Redskin but may every Redskin play like they are wearing #21 on their backs.

Doc Walker calls Sean Taylor the Tarantula and Mike Sellers the Caveman.
After every game, every play & every highlight, I'll always remember #21. RIP Sean.

Someone asked for other 'groups'...

... the Smurfs.
... the Over The Hill Gang
... the Fun Bunch

I've got a good little Redskins trivia question for you based on a nickname....

What former Redskin was known to his Skins teammates as Steve Austin and why?
Sean Taylor was one of a kind, may he rest in peace.

The why? First 6 million+ contract. ( thus the Steve Austin referance.

The Who? umm just a guess but Wilbur Marshall?

:hail:

You sir, get to wear the heavyweight belt today.

You are exactly right.

Apparently Wilbur wasn't very fond of the nick (according to Darryl Grant).

I would never, ever have wanted to make Wilbur mad. :shock:
