1. This is awesome

[Brother Buzz]

2. The club honored him, and I understand the bling merchandise profits are going to be generously shared with charities

[True Dough]

3. I think the franchise should get more creative

Create new merch with Pope Leo's face on the front with this written across the back: "Chicago White Sox: Pray for us!"

4. +1

5. I have a mixed marriage.

My husband is a Sox fan. I have never understood that. I am a Cubs fan and so are my kids.

6. Yeah, but

now your husband has the power of the Pope on his side! Fortunes are about to change in a hurry!

[Wonder Why]

10. That's mighty DEI of you.

[Brother Buzz]

7. Patience, young grasshopper

This gift needs to be carefully planned and played out.


In my perfect world, Pope Leo throws out the first pitch next year; miracles can happen, Baby!

9. Could I interest you in one of these, Brother Buzz?

11. I'll pass. That one is made off the reservation and not one nickel will go to charity

12. My youngest daughter just expressed a desire

for the Pope to come here and attend the crosstown series, when the Cubs and Sox play each other.

8. This gave me a chuckle:

13. This pope business is getting out of hand!
