With Pope Benedict retiring, bets are being taken on who will be the next Pope.  And then there are Pope brackets.

An Iowa company has put together a bracket to keep track of all the possibilities. They have included the top 16 choices (based on Vegas odds).

Betting odds on the next Pope are fluctuating wildly over these past few days at Paddy Power with Archbishop Angelo Scola (Italy) now that favorite at 11/4 odds.  Cardinal Marc Ouellet of Canada, who was recently favored, was now coming in at 9/2 odds.

If the cardinals elect the First Black Pope, Paddy Power has promised to refund all losing bets on the Next Pope market.
