You were born in 86 and you didn't know about all the team politics and internal turmoil before the 91 season? I mean you were 5 years old. You couldn't pick up a paper at 5?

No that's ok, Joe Gibbs didn't know who Oliver North was at the height of the Iran Contra scandal, he was so absorbed in his job as coach.

But surely you know all about the Iran Contra scandal in 1987 - you were after all a full year old.
