Hi William,

Many mocked it, but a young man from around my neck of the woods named Tim Tebow led his team (the Florida Gators football team) from a genuine place. This included expressions of joy, frustration and even sorrow. This particular speech, after a tough loss, includes genuine sorrow and even a tear or two:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sGv2Zw-WQw

But the emotion it captured the attention of the nation and the hearts of the team. They didn't lose again, and finished as national champions. So apparently, a male leader can "cry" with positive results, provided he also is willing to back up the remorse with commitment and determination.
