Unfortunately, a literal scene representation (of the type you appear to want
from a camera profile) could not possibly guarantee the team spot colors, as
lighting color, time of day for outdoor shots, mixed lighting, distance (which
reduces satuation), and a number of other factors will conspire to give you
inconsistant results. If you need team colors to emulate the spot color value
(on some kind of average, since highlights, shadows, fabric sheen, and fabric
texture etc will not give the same values for all pixels), then fix them
yourself, with CameraRaw, Photoshop, or whatever other tool you choose, to give the
result you need. If a camera profile helps you towards that goal, thats fine
too... but frankly its a less flexible and more complicated solution for many
users.
