It's All About Football


It is that time of year when there is a cool nip in the air at night, school is back in session and the sound of shoulder pads crunch against each other are present throughout the country.
Football season is here and leaders can spend their weekends enjoying every level of football. If you like you can take in a local High School game on Friday, check out a college game on Saturday and enjoy an NFL game on Sunday.
On Friday I was leaving a school with my daughter who is on a swim team and from across the street you hear the announcer at the High School football game. What a relaxing time it is to sit back in the cool crisp air and watch those High School players playing their hearts out for their schools. They are our future leaders and leading on the gridiron helps them with their leadership growth.
On Saturday the next level of football occurs in Colleges and Universities. You can spend a sunny fall afternoon enjoying your favorite college team. You will have an opportunity to see that next generation of leaders playing hard for the school that has given them scholarships. However many want to be leaders in football and not business, they should stay in school then they will be true leaders.
On Sunday you could take in a pro game and watch the current football leaders. See how the game has changed from High School to College to the pros. Most of all spend the time getting away from your hectic leadership life and just relax and enjoy autumn’s greatest game. Summer is reserved for baseball but autumn is reserved for the gridiron. Get out and enjoy those games regardless of the level.
