So I have a rather dumb question; Why was Pope the only person who knew how to swim? It was, after all, a pool party.

There was a story in the paper like this last weekend! A local painter and decorator had saved a 6 year old girl from the canal!

Thought you'd like to know!

It is on ESPN......as much as I dislike them, they did come through.

Very good to see a positive story getting about an athlete getting some play.

If I were drowning and somebody yelled "the Pope's coming for you" I'd learn to swim in a minute.
