Pick-a-Pope #1 at Vatican City

[meow]

USA! USA! USA!

[Pucks_and_Pols]

Well, here we go. I wonder what name the new pope might take. Personally, I would love to see the pope go trolling and choose the name Sixtus. The next pope with that name would be Sixtus the sixth (Sixtus sextus in Latin), which would probably give the media fits as they try to say it.

Sixtus the Sixth...
Pope #66............

Spoiler:

He will choose the name Peter

He will choose the name Peter

Sixtus the Sixth...
Pope #66............

Spoiler:

Hey, Cardinal Wuerl is in the conclave, so there is a possibility of a yinzer pope.

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.

Ravasi - Dolan - Ouellet
Schoenborn - Erdő
Duka

Plan the parade.

I like Ouellet on the wing*

He brings size, is an above average skater when compared to his peers, and probably has the most experience at the wing. Unfortunately he's also injury prone.

Last call for votes! He have white smoke, and the bells are ringing.

The real question is, IF it is the guy from Pittsburgh, do yinzers turn on him for leaving? or if he isnt chosen are yinzers angry at the disrepect?

Wuerl had no say over whether or not he stayed in Pittsburgh. You pretty much go where you are assigned.


But I doubt people would think about that before complaining.

Rob Rossi reporting his sources are saying that Donald Wuerl as pope is close to a "done deal".

Hopefully this means an end to the smoke jokes.

[MRandall25]

Someone on my Twitter timeline is retweeting people who are saying smoke is being released from the "Sixteen Chapel"...

I...

I hate myself for watching livestreams now to see who it is.

[npv708]

Is this the same band who played at hogwarts?

[penny lane]

i'd like a few of those swiss guards in front of Flower
;)

[Gaucho]

I'm guessing it's that nazi Scola.

[MRandall25]

I wonder how much these random marching bands get paid?

[PensFanInDC]

I keep thinking of that scene from Revenge of the Nerds but instead of saying 'bush' Booger is saying 'Pope'
