Even as a former player I sometimes forget how important football is to the players and how important winning is to all players, especially a championship. When you are at the stadium watching the individual introductions you cant help but notice the watery eyes of just about every player on both teams in the moments before they run on to the field to play in the Grey Cup. It is a moment. It is impossible to determine what is going through a mans mind that would make him cry in such an enjoyable event but there it was in perfect jumbotron colour - player after player almost losing control as their name is about to be introduced in front of 50,000 people in stadium and millions on TV. If anything, you would want the opposite to happen, to stay in control and be calm and focused. Yet 24 players could not hide their emotion and it was so evident how important the moment was to them in a most personal way. In an athletic world dominated by a desire for positive revenue streams it was the tears of pre-game that was the moment for me. Nobody can tell me that money was more important than winning the 2014 Grey Cup to those so directly involved. The eyes showed the truth. For Calgary, Bo Levi Mitchell took a step from good to great in this game and that was tangible. His calmness under stress was so evident all game and his physical skills were as well. Dave Dickenson as an offensive coordinator had a good day. How do you have a good day as an offensive coordinator? You see your plan unfold in front of you in a detailed way. By using Jon Cornish as a possibility and not as a reality it just seemed to be enough to open any - and at some moments - all opportunities down field. Dickenson was a great player, is a great coordinator and may have the opportunity to be a great head coach in the near future. His mentor John Hufnagel has trained and influenced him well. With the Ticats so many of their missed opportunities were taken away in many cases by their own actions. The penalty on the return by speedy B Brandon Banks had to be called. If it had not been called that official could lose his job and credibility. I detest football penalties and the poetic moment for Hamilton would have been something historic but the right thing happened, however painful. In the end it was a good Grey Cup that was sold out contrary to reports of the opposite. And in the end the best team did win, with a record 17 wins and only three losses. The Calgary Stampeders now get a Grey Cup ring, and they earned it.

The 27-year-old Sloan, a former Texas-El Paso player from Calgary matched first-round leader Rodriguez at 10-under 132 on Ashburn Golf Clubs New Course.ST. LOUIS - Slumping All-Star Yasiel Puig was benched by the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday for Game 4 of their NL Division Series against the St. Louis Cardinals.What can I do? I wasnt in the lineup, Puig said through an interpreter. That was a decision they made. Whether it was the managers decision or anyone, they made that decision.Now its my responsibility to be supportive from the dugout.Manager Don Mattingly said he thought Andre Ethier was a better option. Eithier often has been the odd-man out in a crowded outfield.Hes healthy, Mattingly said of Puig. Pretty simple today: We just feel like this gives us the best chance to win today, just the best chance to win today.Mattingly said it was difficult to read whether the 23-year-old Puig was pressing.Its just confidence, the manager said. I cant tell you that hes not confident or that hes overly confident or anything. So thats a question for him.Puig struck out seven consecutive times before he tripled and scored the tying run in the Dodgers 3-1 loss on Monday night, which gave St. Louis a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series. He is batting .250 in the series, going 3 for 12, with eight strikeouts.He just had a tough game, closer Kenley Jansen said. But Yasiel, hes learned a lot, I feel like. Hes been ddoing much better in the post-season, even though the numbers dont show, probably.ddddddddddddCardinals pitchers handled him last year in the NL Championship Series, too, holding the rookie to a .227 average with 10 strikeouts in 22 at-bats.Mattingly hedged about whether hed hesitate to use Puig off the bench.Well use whatever the game calls for. Thats what we will do, the manager said. You cant sit here and say This guy is not going to play. Thats not what this is all about.If hes part of the equation of trying to win a game, hell be in the game.The 32-year-old Ethier was listed to play centre field and bat sixth in place of Puig against right-hander Shelby Miller. Ethier was 1 for 2 in the series and 2 for 6 this season against Miller.Puig batted .296 with 16 homers, 69 RBIs and a .382 on-base percentage. He had three homers and 10 RBIs during September.Ethier batted .249 with four homers and 42 RBIs in 331 at-bats, fewest by two among the Dodgers outfield quartet. Ethier had three starts in September, including the last two games after the Dodgers clinched the NL West.One reason why Andres not playing every day is we have an abundance of outfielders, Mattingly said. Nothing bad about Andre. Weve got more than enough everyday outfielders. ' ' '
