...temperament is understandable. Bergé has a legend to burnish and a business to run. He sounds like a man who knows strong competition when he sees it taking a stroll down the boulevard, decked out, more than likely, in some splendiferous Armani assemblage.

If you don't understand football for some obscure reason like a 20-year case of autism or you're from some foreign country where they don't play it, then take a short stroll over to Lamont and peruse the Sports Illustrated How-to book of Football.
