me back and play really well, it just means more for us, Reed s

There are numerous times, many situations, and a countless different ways in which leaders lead.In a quarterback driven league such as the CFL, we see these leaders of men display their skills often. Darian Durant has shown us his leadership abilities by relinquishing much of his responsibilities and spreading the load amongst his teammates. For example, hes handing the ball off to Kory Sheets more often this season than last. Delegation is just one of the ways Durant has lead Saskatchewan to a perfect 3-0 start to the season. Kevin Glenn has been the essence of humility in his leadership role with the Calgary Stampeders. He has continually put the team first which in turn has proven to be a dynamic motivating force for his teammates. They want to excel when KG is on the field. Travis Lulay took it upon his shoulders in Edmonton last week to carry the team offensively with his running prowess. I cant tell you how many times I did that over the course of my career. Its an aspect that lends itself to the CFL style of game beautifully. When you can pressure a defense with your ability to create and move the chains with your feet, more times than not all the other offensive parts just seem to fall into place. Just ask Henry Burris of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The 38-year-old led the Ticats to their first victory of the season with his heart and legs as well. When a quarterback starts to gash a defence with his mobility, it can tear the heart out of them and immediately put them on their heels. Case in point, Lulays 82 yards rushing and Burriss 47 yards were the difference in winning and losing for their clubs last week. Anthony Calvillo is being forced to broaden his leadership role by taking a more vocal and hands-on approach to the offensive structure and system. In his phenomenal 20-year career he must grow even more and accept the role - if given the opportunity by head coach Dan Hawkins and offensive coordinator Mike Miller - to become the teacher and lead this offense. I remember when I was thrust into a similar situation back in ‘92. Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Cal Murphy was having an emergency heart transplant and the offense was left in a bit of a tail spin. No offensive coordinator was appointed and it was up to a certain veteran QB to step forward. Thank goodness we had the talented mind of Mike Kelly on the staff and a group of veteran offensive football players that did not panic and persevered through what could have been a disastrous scenario. Calvillo must assume control and take the lead in Montreal. Will they let him? Ricky Ray in Toronto leads everyday with his professional approach and quiet confidence. They are the defending Grey Cup Champions because of his demeanor and leadership style; he simply gives his team a chance to win every time they take the field. The Bombers Buck Pierce continues to lead with a ‘never say die attitude and relentless passion for winning. Believe me when I say this, there is nobody in Winnipeg more frustrated than Buck with the way things have played out over the last several seasons. Hes a true warrior that continues to lead with grit and determination. Mike Reilly is one of those people you meet and say, “Wow.” Hes going to be successful; he has an aura about him that you want to be a part of and believe in. Those are the things a natural born leader are made of! Hes getting his chance to play and learn the game while figuring out what it takes in the CFL to lead and be successful. No matter where you go across the CFL you will find each teams leader looking for whatever the day calls for in order to be successful. Its not just one characteristic that comes into play, its knowing how and when to apply many styles of leadership to whatever the situation calls for in order to be a player worth consistently following! Alberta Premier Don Getty once told me, "Matt, being a successful quarterback in the CFL is like being a world class chef. Every day you have to take 40+ different ingredients, take a little of this and that, put it into a pot, stir it up and have it come out tasting delicious." Heres to all of our CFL world class chefs cooking up something tasty for us all, week after week! Julian Edelman Youth Jersey . That gave fans outside Joe Louis Arena another chance to ask for autographs from the 19-year-old whose stardom in the NHL has arrived earlier than most expected. Stephon Gilmore Youth Jersey . - Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie never doubted he would bring back coach Dennis Allen for a third year despite back-to-back 4-12 records. http://www.shoptheofficialpatriots.com/Elite-Kevin-Faulk-Patriots-Jersey/ . Jordan Lynch, the all-purpose Heisman Trophy finalist from Northern Illinois, failed to make it into that exclusive club. Steve Grogan Womens Jersey . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111. Irving Fryar Youth Jersey . According to a report from the Winnipeg Free Press, the Bombers will name Acting GM Kyle Walters to the post full time. NASSAU, Bahamas -- Its no secret that Patrick Reed grew up idolizing Tiger Woods. He often wears a red shirt on Sunday afternoons to pay homage and his recent Ryder Cup success can be at least partially credited to a desire to strut his stuff in front of the vice captain assigned to him that week.On Thursday afternoon, Reed was gift-wrapped a front-row seat to Woods return, serving as his first playing partner during a competitive round in nearly 16 months.As he watched Woods open with four birdies in his first eight holes at the Hero World Challenge before stumbling, a singular thought entered Reeds mind.I was like, Oh, my gosh, he later said. Tiger is back.The seemingly never-ending debate over Woods relative back-ness is subject to interpretation. Some consider him already back, having played four rounds this week. Others wont believe he is back until he begins playing a full PGA Tour schedule once again. Even others contend he isnt really back until hes contending for tournament titles -- or possibly even until hes winning them.Well, heres one thing we can agree upon: Woods being back portends positive things for golfs short-term future.Despite the doom and gloom picture that many have painted -- from decreased interest in the game to lower television ratings -- golfs most elite level has thrived and flourished in the few years since Woods latest decline. Jason Day, Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth have become a quartet of entertaining superstars, any of them capable of dominating a tournament on a given week, while the likes of Reed, Rickie Fowler, Brooks Koepka and Hero champion Hideki Matsuyama represent the next tier of exciting young golfers, if not a blurred line between the two.I think we proved that golf does not need Tiger, Brandt Snedeker said. It was successful the last couple of years when we didnt have Tiger, to see Rory and Jordan and other guys step up and play the way they did. That said, golf is better when Tiger is around. I dont know if we need Tiger. We all want Tiger. I want to see Tiger playing again. Its fun.Golfs in a really good position these past few years and thats without him, Rickie Fowler concurred. Now it can only be better with him. He can only help it. And the better he plays, the better it is for the game.The game enjoyed its greatest popularity, numbers-wise, during Woods prime years. Starting with his transcendent victory at the 1997 Masters aand through the injury-riddled 2008 U.ddddddddddddS. Open title, he was the connective tissue, bringing the masses to the game and the game to the masses.It was enough to make these past few years -- with all of the young players atop the games highest level -- pale in comparison, despite the fact that there were burgeoning rivalries and a greater competitive balance on a weekly basis.If we can allow ourselves to consider the possibilities, theres potential for all of these players to continue playing their best golf, while adding the games most popular player to that mix. Its not a stretch to believe Woods full return to form could result in a golden age for the game, a cross-generational blend of superstars on some of its biggest platforms.Thats really exciting for us, Spieth said. Tiger moves the needle. Tiger created golfers from athletes -- even myself. I played a lot of sports and Tiger certainly played a large influence in why I decided to play golf. ... He can still have that influence for another decade on the golf course. I think he can truly help get the numbers back up in golf that have been dropping a little bit.The state of the game is tremendous; throwing him back into it just makes it even better, Zach Johnson explained. If hes playing competitive golf and he can play a mildly full Tiger schedule and stay healthy, even if hes in contention just two or three times, its going to elevate the product to a high that maybe we havent seen in a long time.Reed was amon
