ChiTown, it’s not like they gave money to a seedy company that no one’s ever heard of. I think Fidelity Investments and CitiGroup are pretty respectables companies. Just sounds like some bad luck to me.

I’m not speaking ill of every-single professional athlete but the term Dumb-Jock has been definitely earned

Assuming this investment was made in 2000, it wasn’t that dumb of a move. Assuming this investment was made 2004-2006, their financial planners/business managers should be shot. Assuming this investment was made 2006-2008, the athletes themselves should be shot.
