For much of that 20-year sentence, other teams used to keep unruly players in line by threatening to trade them to Green Bay. It wasn't until Bob Harlan was elected president in 89, and then hired Ron Wolf (who, in turn, hired Mike Holmgren) that the tide started to turn. Those three were able to get the early word out that something was changing in Green Bay - and the floodgates really opened in 92, when Reggie White obeyed Holmgren's divine command and chose  to play in Green Bay.That was the start of our new Golden Age, because we've been one of the top 4 or 5 in the league, and everyone wants tp play for a winner.In fact, I believe we have the highest winning percentage in the NFL since 92. But I'd have to check that to be sure; we might be behind the Steelers by a game or two.</blockquote>
