BY SCOTT C. YATES P robably never before have the words "I greet you all in the name of Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth and the life," received such a massive ovation. But when Pope John Paul II spoke those words, the 90,000 people in atten- dance at Mile High Stadium Thursday night let up a tremendous roar that topped even the cheers for Eric Young, the fi rst batter in major league history in Denver, when he hit a 3-2 pitch out of the yard on April 9. This set of cheers was not for the usual sort of crowd pleaser. There was no sport legend present, no big rock stars. The cheering didn't stop either. The crowd had already worked itself into a frenzy with two hours of music ranging from choral gospel hymns to the Mexi- can standard Cielito Lindo. The schedule had been planned out to the second, but when the pon- tiŸ arrived late, the organizers had to scramble. Somebody was inspired to think of leading the crowd in "the wave," which became one of the crowd favorites. The words of John Paul, however, inspired the biggest cheers of all. "Jesus has called each one of you to Denver for a purpose," the pope said. "You must live these days in such a way that, when the time comes to return home, each one of you will have a clearer idea of what Christ expects of you." The pope set the tone for the rest of the week. "Of course," he told the crowd, "we are here to listen to one another: I to you, and you to the pope. But above all we are in Denver to hear the one true word of life — the eternal Word who was in the beginning with God." The pope also sparked cheers as he read the names of most of the nations represented. As he mentioned each country, the participants from that country, and U.S. descendants from that country, would respond wildly.
