Change that had been delayed for 20 years had finally come and that meant they could accept change as a necessary component. Success would come eventually. I never expected the current streak of relevance though.
I will always remember when I heard about that signing. It was the days before the internet and I got to work and they said "hey your Packers signed Reggie White" I of course cussed at them and told them never in a million years would they do that. They then showed me the newspaper and I almost fell over.
I also never expected how long the Packers (for the most part) have been in the thick of things every year. I still to this day stop and think about how awesome this run has been.
