The Swiss Guard and I generally think they must be from Switzerland or perhaps Italy, kind of like the Beefeaters who protect Buckingham Palace.

The Swiss Guard celebrated their 500th anniversary of protecting the pope in 2006.
They are, of course, from Switzerland.

Well, the pope had Tarik Glenn at left tackle, but he's hurt, so I'm not sure.
Of course, the pope's team always loses, because he won't play on Sundays.
