Charles Drago Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I must admit, the Sistine Bunker has me a bit spooked. Not to mention the arrangement of Ave Maria in march tempo. Although arguing against all this is Benedict's demonstrated ability to say "mass" without "extermination" in the same sentence. But seriously, ladies and gentlemen ... Do you recall the NBC TV announcer providing -- there's no other term for it -- play-by-play coverage of Pope Paul VI's first visit to America at Yankee Stadium? I was a kid at the time, but I'll never forget the line. The princes of the Church were assembled in a dugout. At the appointed time, they appeared to the multitudes. And the announcer intoned with all due gravitas, "And the cardinals take the field." Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest David Guyatt Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I get easily confused about catholic colour coding, but do Cardinals favour Red hats or Redsox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
