Clearly, this Pope is a race hustler. They were going to give him a ride in the WayBack Machine, but it didn’t have a bullet-proof bubble on it, so it was a no go.

Love this for several reasons. The biggest one is probably that this pope is centuries more enlightened than almost all of his predecessors.

The fact that he causes conservative Catholics to go into cardiac arrest is just lagniappe.

He may be the Vicar of Christ, but can he rebound? And what about shooting FT?

Clearly, His Holiness has got the Basketball Jones.

His jersey looks just like the Shroud of Turin, except that I see the outline of Brigitte Bardot’s bum in a bikini, circa 1960.

I hear tell that Pope Francis was once a bouncer. Perhaps he can kick a few Republican money changers out of House chamber when he speaks before that body in September? From these photos, it appears he still has the coordination even at his age, as well as the Lord’s blessing to clean up the GOP greed and corruption.

I see in Pope Francis the same cool factor that Pres Obama shows. To heck with stuffy and traditional until you must. Find things you enjoy and embrace them. Find new ways to reach folks who might not have tuned into you before.

Simply live in the state delight when you can … there are plenty of serious topics to bring you back to earth … often.

Flight Time and Big Easy - absolutely loved those guys on the Amazing Race. Globetrotters are pure class.

I bet he’s not the first Pope to touch a black man’s ball…

He’s very proficient at making Hail Marys as the shot clock expires.
