Leaders Signed Up

Coach McCarthy has a new contract that runs thru 2012 as does GM Thompson. McCarthy says, "The five-year deal I think is a reflection of the commitment to our football program and the direction that we're headed."

McCarthy's .647 (22-12) record is 2nd among all active coaches and 2nd amongst Packer coaches.

Thompson's reaction: " "Mike brings tremendous passion, work ethic and structure to his position."

Summing it up the coach says, "The goal will never change. It's been the same since the first time I stood in front of the media and the fans, and that's to win the world championship and bring the Lombardi Trophy back to Green Bay."

Every thing's sealed then. Both have the same length deals, no worries about whose is up when. Back to the goals then.
