His attitude is, not surprisingly, neither romantic nor realistic; he divides the women he meets into "hardcore" or "centerfolds." When he loses his virginity, however, the experience is brutal in a way that shreds his cheap porn fantasies...

In 1992, Selig replaced Vincent for a six-year temporary term, and in 1998 he was officially elected commissioner...
...Leary observes that none of Bonderman's riches have gone to his wardrobe: "The guy can't dress himself. Bad suits. Ties don't match. Socks horrendous. Shoes from St. Vincent de Paul. A guy dressed as badly as Bonderman can't tell you how to run your business...
