Words from Duel scene in the play Cyrano de Bergerac:

Nike Football
A new era inspired by creativity and attacking intent.
A fresh philosophy founded on possession and obsession.
A classic shirt created through innovation and elegant design.
French football enters a new era. The revolution is here.
Vive Le Football Libre.

A thoroughbred from head to heel,
Disdainful of the rein or bit,
Tonight I draw a lyric wheel,
But, when the poem ends, I hit.

This sharp tooth slavers for its meal.
There, let it strike. And did you feel The bite ? Not yet.
The vultures sit until the closing of the deal.
The poem ended, and then I hit.

Prince, drop your weapon. Humbly kneel,
Seek grace from God in requisite.
Repentance. Now I stamp the seal.
The poem ended – and I hit.
