    Only reason I posted this is because I thought you guys would get a kick out of this line:

    Apparently, Pope was the only adult at the scene who knew how to swim, which — let's go ahead and say it — speaks to some less-than-stellar planning when it comes to a pool party.

    I don't get how an adult "doesn't know how to swim" if their kid is drowning in a fucking pool.


    If it was intense rapids or something I might understand, but do you really need to "know how to swim" to get your kid out of an 8 foot deep no current pool?

    People who can't swim usually have a fear of water.

    That kid should've been wearing a life jacket.

    They couldn't get over their fear of water (in this case, an 8 foot controlled pool) to save a drowning kid?

    Great job Pope.

    Not sure why they had to throw in "cell phone and all" in there.

    Like they are so valuable it is a travesty to get them in water.

    There should be some child endangerment charges here. I would never let a kid in my pool that couldn't at least swim a little.

    a vast majority of black people, although highly gifted athletes, lack the ability to swim. its understandable that only one brotha at the whole pool party was able to swim. good thing Pope had that ability.

    Pope seems to be a classy kind of guy. As good for him and good for that boy being saved!

    He never got much credit for his lifeguarding skills at UGA.
