I will be following their season, but
moving forward lets resolve to not over-utilize the term "metro-sexual".

"The team also has an increased influx of non-American riders, though most are fluent in English. Still, the foreign aspect is a key for the new team. "It is an American team with a majority of American riders and mostly English speaking, so I think it is important. But we are a cosmopolitan team. If you look at the spirit of the team, it is American... but America at its best. Not the ugly American!"

Cosmopolitan? That sounds a little GQ Jonathan... "That's it, the metro-sexual American team!" exclaimed Vaughters, a self-proclaimed metro-sexual male. "That is literally the spirit of the team. We are proud of things like the Bill of Rights over here, but we have people that can speak a bunch of different languages too!"

I wonder if Vaughters is also a cunning linguist?
