Are the lights on right above the pro shop at night?. Are the lights on at night in M.M.'s office that looks over Vince's statue?
Does anyone have any articles that address M.M.'s work ethic?
If so.... I would greatly appreciate the links.
Thanks in advance.

RP: I think the results of the last two years prove Packer head Coach Mike McCarthy work ethics are just fine. Results are, the Packer went from 4-14 in '05 under Mike Sherman, 8-8 in Mike McCarty first year as head Coach here in Green Bay In Mike McCarthy's 2nd year in Green Bay, unexpectedly by any media and many Packer fans. the Packers great 14-4 season record in '07. From articles I remember being printed in the Green Bay Press-Gazette Mike was pretty wrapped up in his job as Packer head coach as most NFL head coaches are.
Mike McCarthy has no family here in GB, as he is divorced. he does visit his family in Pittsburgh and his teenage daughter who lives with his ex wife, when he has time. Mike's daughter comes to GB at times to visit him. I would imagine Mike takes his work home with him . In this modern era of the computor, it is not necessary to be at office to do your work. You just have your computor at home hooked into the Packer office computor. This is done very often in business world today.
I remember when ex Packer head coach and GM Mike Sherman really burned the midnight oil during his tenue here in Green Bay. In fact Packer president Bob Harlan thought too much so. Harlan was worried about Mike Sherman's health, both physically and mentally. Harlan decided that both jobs were just too much for Mike Sherman. And decided to remove Mike Sherman from his Packer GM positiona t end of the '04 season and Harlan hired Ted Thompson as Packer General manager.
Just burning the midnight oil 365 years a year, doesn't always equate to a successful NFL head Coach. The time the NFL Head Coach spends at office must be quality time. There are "control Freak" type of head Coaches They spend far too much of their time on every aspect of Football operations. This type of head coach does not delegate authority very well to their assistants. Mike Sheman was accused of this during his last years as Packer head Coach and GM.
Whatever Mike McCarthy does, seems to be working very well in Green Bay. I would not worry about his work ethnic. He seem to acquired his hometown "Pittsburgh blue collar work ethic," we hear so much about.
Knowing posters on pf , somebody will find links concerning Mike McCarthy's work ethics.
