When trying to sell a sports team to potential investors, you should probably get beyond the first two minutes of the presentation before you mention that the team in question is "a team that has one of the worst records in all of professional sports" (see the video below). But when the team is the subject of an interesting public ownership scheme/BBC reality show you're probably not too hung up on doing things as they have been done before.

The last time Hammarby striker Charlie Davies was seen around these parts he was ballin' outta control with our Sacha & a few of the other boys out in Vegas. His most recent trip out to the American West probably doesn't involve nearly as much alcohol & gambling though since it's for a national team camp at the HDC (but to be fair, if he were in camp for Italy it might be a different story).

Ever heard of this kid Colin Burns? I've never heard of him but apparently he's an American player who's been outsourced to Europe. He's played for a team that sound's like a curry (Olimpia Bălţi), one that could be a knock-off soft drink from the Carter era (Sepsi-78) and one that appears to be the name of an Olympic medalist from eastern Europe (Kokkolan Palloveikot).
