January 12th, 2006. 13 years (and two days) ago. That was the day it was announced that Mike McCarthy would be the head coach of the Green Bay Packers. Relatively speaking, it’s been a very long time.
I was discussing this topic with my wife (who I didn’t even know back then) today. 13 years is quite a long time to us. That’s almost half of our lives. I did add “relatively” as the difference in time passed from 16 to 29 is a complete lifetime compared to 40 to 53.
So let’s go on a nostalgic journey together.
