Default $1 dollar bearings, do you re-grease them before using them?

I'm a buy a new bearing / toss the old bearing away type of guy. Does anyone out their blow out the grease on these still when they are brand new and put your lube of choice in them? This is what I do but I'm starting to think I'm crazy.

I was thinking about doing this just for the diff housing and diff gear bearings but leaving the stock grease on the hub's and steering area.

If your a person like me and replace your bearings every gallon more or less, what do you do? If you keep the grease in do you like protek, tko, avid's or roller bearing grease stock grease better then another stock grease?
