BengalszoneBilly Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Bush makes surprise visit to Browns camp NFL.com wire reports BEREA, Ohio (July 31, 2004) -- On a campaign trip through Ohio, President Bush made an unscheduled stop for a game of catch -- with Cleveland Browns receivers Dennis Northcutt and Andre Davis. Bush visited the Browns' training facility, where he was escorted by coach Butch Davis and the team's new quarterback, Jeff Garcia. They took the president to the practice field, giving 200-plus fans who arrived early a surprise. Northcutt might have needed a relaxing game of catch. After leaving the team hotel in the morning, he noticed several police motorcycles following his car. He initially thought they were going to pull him over. "There were 20 of them behind me," he said. "I was like, 'Oh, man.' " Speaking about offensive tackle Ryan Tucker, Bush cracked: "He went to the same high school as my wife, but he's not as good-looking." Laura Bush and Tucker went to Robert E. Lee High School in Midland, Texas, and Tucker played football at Texas Christian University. As he prepared to leave, Bush told the squad: "Go get 'em." Politically speaking, the Bush campaign probably figured the quick stop might do the president some good in another crucial swing state -- Florida. Television and newspaper coverage will show Bush with Davis, who went 51-20 record in six years as head coach at the University of Miami, including an 11-1 record in 2000 when the Hurricanes finished second in the nation. Before Bush's visit, Ronald Reagan was the last president to stop by a Browns practice. He visited Berea in 1988 while campaigning for Bush's father, then-Vice President George H.W. Bush. After his stay with the Browns, the younger Bush headed to Canton and Cambridge for campaign stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IfItsBrownFlushItDown Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Jeff Garcia showed him around? The guy just got there this year! What did he show him, the film room? "Oh look Mr. Bush, here's the film room. It's nice and dark! Want me to show you the tape of my "QB sneak"????" Sad part is..in his game of "catch" President Bush probably caught more passes than the receivers did! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
