Team USA’s Opening Ceremony Unis Are Dope, And If You Don’t Like Them Then You Can GTFO
Recently, Team USA’s Opening Ceremony uniforms for the 2016 Summer Olympics have come under fire and I’m can’t figure out why. Sure, the unis aren’t always a great representation of what most Americans would find “fashionable,” but these are the best I’ve seen in recent years.
Ralph Lauren Polo is once again in charge of dressing the elite athletes. The designer is going white pants, a navy blue blazer and a red, white, and blue striped underneath it all. The flag bearer even gets a special outfit that illuminates “Team USA” as he walks. Best of all, there are no dopey fucking hats this time. Those looked awful every single year. Although, I would be down to see Team USA stroll in rocking some “Back to Back World War Champs” hats. That’d be a major power move. I’ll leave that to Trump’s USA, though.
The look overall is one of the best Team USA has seen in years. Still, though, people have found shit to complain about.
From Mashable:
Then there’s the United States of America, whose team will be parading down Rio de Janeiro’s Olympic Stadium in … Polo Ralph Lauren boat shoes.
That’s right, the entire team will be forcibly making a style faux pas with an unabashed display of Americana…which unfortunately comes with awful footwear options.
We’ve already spoken about the pitfalls of the boat shoe so won’t go too in-depth there, but it’s disappointing to see how the U.S.A. will already be losing on the fashion front.
…
So why go out with anything less than America’s best — like clunky boat shoes?Sneakers — a very American staple — could have sufficed.
Ah yes. I always tend to agree with that guy that suggests wearing sneakers to a classy event. I assume you’d like for Team USA to sport the t-shirt tuxedo too, yes?
Oh yeah, cause I’m going to wear Polo and NOT let everyone around me know it. No way. I paid good money for my shit. I want all the poorsies to know.
I…yeah, okay. That’s a good one. The shirt does look an awful lot like the Russian flag.
At least we’ll be led by our fearless leader and 22-time Olympic medal winner Michael Phelps.
Shit.
Coverage of the Olympic Opening Ceremony begins at 6 p.m. on Friday..

9 years ago at 1:56 pmI just want her to post fail Friday instead of being the same old pretentious cunt we all love to hate.
9 years ago at 2:02 pmHow on earth can someone be pretentious and attend Texas State? She’s never going to last as a housewife in a Garland/Mesquite level suburb with that uppity shit
9 years ago at 3:25 pmDid you just call it a “Uni”? GTFO
9 years ago at 1:59 pmDoes anyone remember when that fat lady came out claiming she pissed on Michael Phelps cause he asked for it? For having 22 medals dude has a strange ass life
9 years ago at 2:00 pmNot really. Swimmers are usually pretty strange birds
9 years ago at 2:20 pmThat picture of Sydney looks like one of the illustrations of the mentally retarded in my French ll textbook in highschool. I guess she doesn’t have to worry about a brain freeze tho
9 years ago at 2:03 pmIf she goes to texas State then we all know she’s mentally retarded
9 years ago at 2:54 pmHey Lyndon Johnson went to Texas State and he wasn’t – uh, never mind…
9 years ago at 3:14 pmWe may be drunk and irrelevant but mentally retarded is a stretch.
9 years ago at 3:14 pmI mean you have her….that says a lot man
9 years ago at 7:14 pmEating an ice cream cone in that cover photo. Interesting move, intern sausage-fingers
9 years ago at 2:04 pmWhy is intern syphilis holding a cone full of cum?
9 years ago at 2:11 pmThat’s what they teach you to do on Texas State
9 years ago at 2:18 pmTexas State hasn’t ever taught anyone anything
9 years ago at 3:21 pmBesides holding cones of cum
9 years ago at 7:55 amWhen the plastic surgeon fixes your scar do you think he can do something about the rest of your face?
9 years ago at 2:24 pmShe has 11 likes now, expect to see 611 “totally legit” ones any second…
9 years ago at 2:34 pmAs TFM’s resident Navy pilot, how do you feel about intern slugworth’s accusation that military men can’t go 2 sentences without bringing up their service?
9 years ago at 5:27 pmNaval Aviator. Frat.
9 years ago at 6:19 pmWell you lasted one.
9 years ago at 7:49 pmHer whole response to that question was pretty shitty (I hadn’t opened the article until you asked). Borderline disrespectful and saying “no offense” doesn’t absolve you of anything. It’s also not true, there’s plenty of guys, even Navy pilots, who don’t bring it up even though it’s like the greatest pick up line in the world. I used to tell girls I was a dolphin trainer until I got called out by a marine biology major. Still shacked her though.
