Classy gesture: Fired Packers coach Mike McCarthy takes out full-page ad to give thanks

However things might have ended for Mike McCarthy as coach of the Green Bay Packers, he had a great run. It included a Super Bowl title and a 15-1 season.

It might be difficult, in the days after being fired in the middle of a season, to reflect on the good times. But McCarthy took out a full-page ad in some of the largest papers in Wisconsin to do just that.

McCarthy, who was fired after a loss on Sunday to the Arizona Cardinals, took out a full-page ad in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Green Bay Press Gazette and other Gannett papers.
