Iverson to Turkey - No (Istan)bul

Allen Iverson is all over the map. We mean physically, not mentally. Iverson is reportedly in contract negotiations with a club in that country, Besiktas Cola Turka, with a sticking point over signing being the maximum amount he can be fined over the course of the season (apparently his practice skipping is pre-meditated).

This move certainly doesn't carry the global cachet of playing in China. For one, he'd be balling or squad named after a strange soda. Forget any world-wide endorsement deals, they'd be regional at best. If you think that soft drink is weird, we don't recommend Turkey's other popular carbonated beverage, Mountain Hedo.
