Whenever George W. Bush pops up at a sports event, the only thing I ever think of is when he took the mound at Yankee Stadium not long after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and thew a perfect strike.
Former President George W. Bush participated in the coin toss prior to Sunday’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Bush, who was born in Connecticut but raised in Texas, was on hand for the NFL’s Salute to Service weekend event. He served in the White House for two terms, beating Al Gore in the 2000 election and John Kerry in 2004.
Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who played for the team from 2003 to 2016, heaped praise on Bush during the broadcast.
“He’s one of the great human beings you’ll ever meet,” Romo said.
Bush is supporting the Veteran Check-In, a mental health resource for military veterans and their families.
Right around this time last year, The George W. Bush Presidential Center was promoting it.
Check in with Veteran Check-in, an easy to use resource to easily connect #veterans and their families to high-quality mental and brain health care.

Whenever George W. Bush pops up at a sports event, the only thing I ever think of is when he took the mound at Yankee Stadium not long after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and thew a perfect strike. In fact, the date was October 30, 2001, and it was Game 3 of the World Series between the Yankees and Marlins.
The roar from the crowd was like few I’ve ever heard. As big of a reminder as there could be how sports can bring everyone together.
Cool as a cucumber under pressure. Perfect strike. Even might’ve painted the corner with that one!
Look, do I agree with how George W. operated in the Oval Office? Not at all for the most part, but he is an undeniably good all-around athlete, and a kind of goofy guy who I feel like nobody really hates on so much these days. Any time you can use your considerable public influence to do good and further a cause related to USA military veterans, though, that’s worthy of praise no matter your politics or possibly dubious presidential track record.
Unfortunately for the Cowboys, the good vibes of Dubya may not be enough to salvage their 2024 campaign. They’re trailing 21-6 as of this writing and are staring a fourth straight loss in the face.
