In spite of the bias toward McCarthy,Eli Manning Jersey, Schneider and Thompson had agreed these were going to put all of the candidates through the same process. The structure will be the same, the subjects they discussed exactly the same and the objective the same.

Some of the interviews took place beyond Green Bay, but the ones that were held in town included Schneider and player personnel director Reggie McKenzie. They met within the Dominic Olejniczak Room around the third floor from the facility, exactly the same room in which the executive committee meets.

McCarthy was thrilled to listen to from Schneider he would be interviewed. He had interviewed for the Cleveland Browns job in 2000,Alex Smith Jersey, but it didn't go well and he left realizing he wasn't quite ready to be a head coach yet.

Schneider picked up McCarthy in the airport on Friday night and they visited Legend's,Patrick Willis Jersey, a bar-restaurant on the city's east side. Thompson ended up being to join them for a bite to eat, but he'd driven down to Chicago to interview Bears defensive coordinator Ron Rivera coupled with driven back the same night.

By the time, he got to Legend's he was exhausted and excused himself after a while,Joe Flacco Jersey, leaving McCarthy and Schneider to nurse their beers.

"I think it kind of spooked him a little bit," Thompson said of his quick departure. "I just didn't want to taint everything we were going to perform the next day."

Thompson and McCarthy decided to meet early 'life was imple'. After breakfast, McCarthy took a tour from the facilities with Harlan,Jason Pierre-Paul Jersey, whom he had gotten to know while an assistant in '99. Harlan had already taken Payton,Ray Lewis Jersey, Maurice Carthon and Wade Phillips for tours.

McCarthy hadn't seen the brand new facilities because the renovation, but he appeared to care more about seeing Harlan again.

"He gave me a big hug," Harlan said. "He said how happy he was to see me, and I'll never forget him saying,Ahmad Bradshaw Jersey, ??I'm ready.'"

All the interviews at Lambeau Field had been conducted exactly the same way. Thompson, Schneider and McKenzie sat in the centre somewhere from the cherry wood conference table and McCarthy around the opposite side.

At times,Ray Rice Jersey, Schneider and McKenzie could leave also it would just be McCarthy and Thompson.

McCarthy had brought a giant-sized ringed binder with all of his notes, ideas and schedules inside it. He'd a datebook with other work-related information in it. Not once did he pull them out during the interview.

"He asked everything," McCarthy said. "We talked about hiring staff,Frank Gore Jersey, training camp, philosophical questions,Justin Smith Jersey, how you can manage a roster. It had been head to feet. He fired lots of questions at me. I answered lots of questions."

Because he had been through lots of these,Haloti Ngata Jersey, Thompson was a little numb towards the whole thing. But he was looking for something with every candidate that will tell him he was the best guy.

Just about everyone had a remarkable presentation and all of them had excellent credentials in X's and O's.

"I spoke with a lot of people, there were some fairly way-up-here type of people when compared with me that were very gracious,Vernon Davis Jersey," Thompson said. "I kept saying, ??What am I searching for.' At the end of your day, through suggestions from others and to my own thoughts,Hakeem Nicks Jersey, I had been looking for the guy,Victor Cruz Jersey, I wasn't searching for the coach.

"I wanted to find the correct man. As being a head coach you have to cope with a wide variety of personalities and coaching staffs and organizing and all that. That's great however,Anquan Boldin Jersey, you have to be a person. I believe Mike's a great person."The theme of the related articles：
