Tony Romo Is Dallas’ Savior And Fort Worth Good Samaritan

Is Tony Romo the NFL’s Barack Obama, offering hope to any and all who seek it–Cowboy fans for a Super Bowl, Jessica Simpson fans for her sanity and now stranded motorists? The Dallas QB was coming home after his game this weekend (where he had his chin bopped and then stitched up) when he saw a couple distressed on the side of the road. Then, the man you do take home to mother pulled over to offer a lending hand, right before going home to sleep with his pop star wife and wake up to stories about his team now Super Bowl favorites. Now if you’ll excuse us, we have to go refill our bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch knock-off cereal and see if there’s enough change in the couch for a can of Shasta.

Bill and Sharon White told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that at least 100 drivers ignored their broken-down Mercury before someone stopped late Sunday. Sharon White said a well-dressed man “with something strange on his chin” walked up and offered a hand.

“I did something no 50-year-old woman should be doing, but I screamed real loud, and then jumped up and hugged him,” Sharon White told the newspaper in Thursday’s editions.

Tune in next week when stories leak about Romo’s amazing rescue of hundreds of puppies and kittens from a Houston pet store in the path of Hurricane Ike.
