It was recently announced that Jeb Bush was approached to become the next commisionner of the NFL. While Jeb passed on the football offer (he has his eyes set on another oval prize) we couldn't help but wonder if other first brothers like Roger Clinton or Billy Carter** might be getting calls soon. (** imagine Billy Beer being sold at stadiums across the US of A!)
Speaking of bro's check out the shirt at right designed by our brothers from another mother... Nomas. Should a Bush head up the NFL the next expansion team very well may just be the Baghdad Oilers (sorry Ah-nold... LA might be left high and dry).
We wonder why doesn't the NFL recruit George W. - after all he has some pro-experience as he ran the Rangers plus he'll be unemployed by 2008. It actually got us thinking, since many Presidents have ties to sports (check our political sports quiz we did for ESPN) for which league do you think each past President would be the perfect fit? Share you thoughts and the best comments will win a Baghdad Oilers shirt.
Here are our intial ideas... comment away below and the best will win Baghdad Oilers shirts!
George Bush (sure he used to run the Texas Rangers but we think a more appro position for Georgie biy might be President Beer Pong League - check out this funny photo comp we did of a partying President a while back)
Bill Clinton (Commish of G.L.O.W)
George H.W. Bush (since he was a baseball player at Yale he could head up MLB)
Ronald Reagan (The Gipper's got to be the AD at ND)
Jimmy Carter (President of Satdium Peanut Vendors?)
Gerald Ford (Wolverines! Although he played footabll at Univ of Michigan with all of his pratfalls he might more approiately be the President of the Stuntman's Association)
