Mike McCarthy Needs Quotations

He said he needs to be 100% sure. He knows what he has to put in to play the way he plays. I'm an optimist. I think the glass is half full. It's about him and his family.

I think he needs to go out in the woods with his chain saw and cut trees down and keep doing what he's doing.
