He’s also a regular staple of Stein Clubs, where his conversation vacillates between sophisticated chatter about fine wine and French films to impassioned rants on his fierce, if somewhat contradictory allegiances to the Boston Red Sox and New York Giants.

The first session, which occurred in late February in the Indian Treaty Room, had a somewhat comical cast to it.
