How many here have any memories of the Pack pre-Favre?

There is a definite split on this board. I have a hunch why.
How many of you were old enough to remember the so called "rebuilding years" prior to Favre. The years where we went through QBs like David Whitehurst, Randy Wright, TJ Rubley, Mike Thomsack, jim McMahon (old), etc. ?
These "rebuilding" plans can go on and on and on. Most of the young people here are spoiled by the relative succes the Packers have had during favre. One guy on a thread was down on Favre for just getting to the Playoffs and it was HIS fault for their demise in the the last 10 years. I'm afraid some of you are in store for some bad news.
I don't see anything from Ted to make me think this team is making big strides. Our best asset on offense is a 32 year old holdover from Ron Wolf. He has had 3 years and still hasn't found even one above average TE (vital to the WC offense)-,the FB situation is no better, his RB situation is the worst in the league. Are Colledge and Sitz supposed to get you excited? They are not going to be dominant guys-you just hope they hold up enough and can be hid a little in the ZBS (Let's be honest).
His best move last year may have been resigning Kampman -For all the $hit Sherman gets (and deserves as a GM) that was his guyPickett was just average, Manuel SUCKED, Woodson was a last minute guy that he brought in for $11 mill for 2k6 alone when he finally realized he had so F'n much cap left.
I don't want to ramble on anymore. You can think Ted is the greatest GM in the world if you want.
Just curious about the original question-Do you remeber and were you around pre-Favre?
