Obama Congratulates Packers Coach  

DateTuesday, February 8, 2011 at 8:55AM | AuthorJustin Duckham

President Barack Obama called Green Bay Packers Coach Mike McCarthy Monday to congratulate him on his team’s Superbowl win.

“The President commended Coach McCarthy on his leadership in guiding the team through a rash of injuries both throughout season and during the game,” according to a statement sent out by the White House late Monday afternoon. “He also asked the coach to pass on how impressed he was with Super Bowl MVP Aaron Rodgers’ game and season.”

The President described the team’s victory as something “that even a Bears fan can appreciate” and told the Coach that he was looking forward to hosting the Packers at the White House.

The Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 Sunday.
