Pope Benedict requests meeting with Phil; has "lots of good ideas" for Playaz Ball
Pope Benedict XV called for an emergency meeting with Phil in the Vatican City Sunday, saying he had "lots of good ideas" for upcoming Playaz Ball posts.
Phil graciously met with the head of the Roman Catholic Church, exchanging pleasantries since last seeing each other at Playaz Ball 2006.
"The Pope is a nice guy and all, but ever since we invited him to Playaz Ball, he's been a little 'over the top', so to speak," Phil said. Asked to elaborate, Phil said, "well, constant emails, phone calls, letters with sketches or ideas he's written down of stuff he wants us to do...not very good stuff either. A month ago he sent me something saying he wanted to have me, him, Wayne, Tac, and Kenny go to Mars with R2D2 or something...it just didn't make any sense! I mean, what would we be doing going to Mars?"
The Pope reportedly begged Phil to replace The Guv'na, submitting a photograph of himself to help persuade the Playaz.
Following the meeting, Phil and Tac put away the Pope's list of ideas along with all of his previous suggestions.

Doesn't the whole celibacy thing make him ineligible for Playaship anyways?

I saw that the Pope recently said the Catolic Church would no longer acknowledge the existence of "limbo", the place where unbaptized babies go if they die.
You guys had some influence on this, didn't you?

Don't get us started on baptism. It was probably solely the Guvna's work that changed the Pope's mind.
