- ZolasMoviePics, on 08/29/2008, -1/+22I'll take Olympics over political convention news anyday!
- inactive, on 08/28/2008, -0/+20my favorite was the australian women's b-ball team. i hope they started a trend. it was more like a gymnastics skin tight leotard than any b-ball outfits I have seen.
- drbonemonkey, on 08/29/2008, -1/+19I honestly never thought I would miss the Olympics, but I was totally into it this year! Even those damn costumes!
- trujillonorte, on 08/28/2008, -2/+18I'll miss watching hottie javelin thrower Miss Paraguay :(
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+13This is a really ***** slideslow.
- inactive, on 08/28/2008, -1/+13I just can't believe they made those poor athletes wear those shorts.
- DickyT83, on 08/29/2008, -0/+11Honestly, some of the stuff they're wearing really isn't that bizarre.
- Judacious, on 08/29/2008, -1/+12No pictures of the Canadian Olympic gear? HBC made some really ugly stuff...
http://multimedia.thestar.com/images/7f/a5/6a5d37b ... - sgtbutterscotch, on 08/29/2008, -0/+11I ***** want a Kyrgyzstani hat.
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -2/+12To be honest I am glad its over, but at least we got some sports news on TV. Now all i see the the election.
- mjrtom, on 08/29/2008, -2/+11One thing i am not going to miss is NBC's crap coverage of the Olympics
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+8Hydrodynamics.
- inactive, on 08/28/2008, -1/+9I'm still trying to figure out the pseudo-coveralls the swimmers were wearing. First time I had seen those.
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+7The outfits in the opening and closing ceremonies were incredible. A work of art really
- tomienao23, on 08/29/2008, -1/+8The costumes was cool this Olympics, have to many favorites to list.
- rcomegys, on 08/29/2008, -0/+5I totally agree. Many of those comments struck me as culturally ignorant. I felt like it was written by one of the girls from MTV's My Super Sweet 16.
- carnitas, on 08/29/2008, -3/+8Hottie javelin thrower in spandex you are in my heart!
- bffoley, on 08/29/2008, -1/+5What I wont miss about the Olympics is non stop OMG MICHAEL PHELPS on TV.
The sad thing is in another year people will be going "Who was that guy who won a lot of medals? Was it six medals? What event was it?". - inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+4that is the most ignorant montage I've seen. Many of these uniforms incorporate the countries flag colors, dont hate. Comparing swimmers body suits to gymnastic leotards is just plain stupid. Did all the people at NBC that know whats going on in these sports take an extended vacation after the games? Did they leave the interns in charge?
- studdenfadden, on 08/29/2008, -0/+3http://d.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/rids/20080809/i/r3 ...
Weirdest basketball uniform I've seen.
I hope it it catches on, for the women at least. - DestroyFascism, on 08/29/2008, -0/+3You mean Political game show starring [Insert candidate here] featuring acts by [insert random artists here]
- SreyaNotfilc, on 08/29/2008, -0/+3Ukrain's women's outfit (picture #4) is actually kinda hot!
- Jenadae, on 08/29/2008, -0/+3You see what i did here?
- fuzzynyanko, on 08/29/2008, -0/+3I wonder if anyone else thought that the American outfits in the opening ceremony looked a little... French...
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Bizarre.
- obliviousfool, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2I actually have one! A few years ago my mother hosted an exchange student from Kyrgyzstan. When I first met her, she proudly gave me one of these wool felt hats. All men over there wear them. The hat is ***** cool, and warm as *****.
- ChuckIT, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2im fast, you're last.
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -2/+4The page doesn't even work in Opera.. really ***** slideshow.
- jojopumpkin, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2THey left out the Chinese Opening Ceremony Outfits. They look like McDonald's College graduates. McAthletes.
http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/04xN2kS8WhfLF/ ... - asnider, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Yeah, I was pretty embarrassed by our ugly gear this year.
- snoobies, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Terrible title about the Olympics. Terrible. I'm disappointed in NBC for even going this route too. Lets show other countries how ignorant we can be by posting a "what we won't miss about the olympics". Great way to embrace other cultures singular America. I find them to be quite fashionable :)
- antdude, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Well, they do use red and yellow colors for China.
- diceau, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1They've been wearing that since 2000 or so haven't they?
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Walter Dix's 'special aerodynamic sleeves' take the ***** cake.
- KCLorelei, on 08/29/2008, -2/+3That's so weird! That Aussie picture was my favorite too!
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1It looks less like people were dressed for the Olympics and more like they were dressed for the Quidditch World Cup.
- ohcoaster, on 08/30/2008, -0/+1i hate nbc's image viewer. ***** thing sucks.
- pveltrent, on 08/29/2008, -3/+4what a stupid article.
- nicbrown, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Well... the Australians were wearing them eight years ago when they were winning the pool medals...
- Cybermaul, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Worked fine for me. What version of Opera are you using?
- antdude, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Turn off the TV.
- smacksaw, on 08/29/2008, -1/+2So picture #2...Chinese men have a vestigial adipose fin instead of a penis? You'd think it would work like a skeg and help them in directional swimming. I guess not.
- MYarms, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Its amazing what people are digging up these days. Absolute garbage.
- Mainland, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1I felt the Ukrainian team had one of the best outfits for the opening ceremonies, especially when viewed as a group.
- inactive, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1I'll be honest: I'm not huge on the Summer games.
- vw2005, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1haha you beat me to it ... I was wondering why Canada's gear wasn't shown...
Epic Fail ..... give Roots back the Olympic Gear contract. They've always delivered awesome designs! - MaxterICC, on 08/29/2008, -1/+1I would totally start watching the wnba
- sandraprinsloo1, on 02/17/2009, -0/+0And so every event has it's own special clothing and trademarks
http://www.angelwindchime.com/jill/jack-and-jills- ... - antdude, on 08/29/2008, -1/+1Ceremonies were cool except the little girl singers and fake fireworks (yeah, it was mentioned on NBC TV).
