Ah yes, I even covered that story. Thanks for the catch.

The picture of the bishops in the dugout is by far the coolest picture I've seen in a really long time.

"The picture of the bishops in the dugout is by far the coolest picture I've seen in a really long time."

I'm actually partial to the one of DiNardo, O'Malley, and Maida. I'm always curious what they're talking about. I like to think something like this:

O'Malley: Adam, the Tigers are off to a rough start.
Maida: Tell me about it. We'll come around, though. I'm more concerned about the Pistons.
DiNardo: Don't even get me started about the Rockets.
O'Malley: The Celtics are looking tough, fellas. Looking mighty tough.
(Maida and DiNardo nod knowingly.)

I hope it's the tasty imported Fanta and not the stuff they sell here in the States! It'd be a bit awkward to have H.H. spit Orange Fanta all over the whites!

The two Bishops standing at the edge of the dugout are Bishops Robert W. Finn (left) and Joseph f. Naumann.

If any of them can pitch, the Yankees should try to make a trade with the Cardinals.

I've taken the liberty of copying your post on the Pope Benedict fanclub website, here: http://theratzingerforum.yuku.co...- practices.html

Hope it's OK. If not, let me know and I'll remove or edit it down.

A couple of days late, Thomas, but you might want to check the spelling on the last name of the Grand Master of the Knights of the Holy Sepulcher. The good cardinal uses only one L... :-)

I'm sure Cdls. Sean and Stafford just loved being in that dugout.

These are just awesome. I do hope to see a book published with these pics and all events about the Pope's visit to America!

Re: "Folley" instead of Foley --

Non-Irishness rears its head. :)

Love the pics from inside Yankee Stadium!

Also like the cool plaque from the Knights of Columbus-is that going out to Monument Park?
