OT: Welcome Pope Francis!

[unihorn]

It's wonderful Pope Francis chose to come here as a force for healing and doing good. One of his key messages will be urging youth to resist the temptation of easy drug money. Welcome Pope Francis!

Can he shoot the 3?

Can he shoot the 3?

He's got a prayer's chance.

Would be cool if someone got him to say "Go Miners"! on video like Obama ended his video to the '66 title anniversary...

 

[kickballpro]

Or Los Mineros since Saturday is Latin Night

He should have UTEP on his beanie.

 

[MINER63]

He should come to a Miner game dressed as Paydirt Pete.

 

[JeepJackson22]

I got it - have him attend our next bball game and lead the Amen chant at the end!

 

[Voice of the Mosquito]

Do you think we could sell it out? He likely would want us to play Norte Dame or St.Marys or somebody like that before he agreed.

On a serious note, this is a amazing thing happening for the people of Juarez who have endured a horrible situation the last 15 years or so. I hope this can bring a felling of hope for them.

 

[UTEPy79]

He's a Jesuit priest - better go with BC, G-town, Xavier, Loyola, SLU lots of choices!

 

[unihorn]

He did mention, El Paso, UTEP, and the people at the Sun Bowl during his mass in Juarez.

 

[Voice of the Mosquito]

I'm sorry please forgive me, I'm not Catholic, Georgetown it is.

He could say a prayer for our Athletic programs, couldn't hurt right?
