The men's gymnastics team was there, and they all had their shirts off since they had to try on a lot of clothes. That was very inspiring. Their bodies are unbelievable.

Quote:
"I'm trying to take all the anxiety and fear out of the experience, so I really try not to think about it. I know this is a big deal, and it's something almost everybody wishes they could do. Representing your country is the highest level that you can play at. It's going to be a great experience, and I know it will be full of amazing memories."

~ Candace Parker




Quote:
"As an Olympian you have a unique opportunity. Obliviously, you earned the right compete in your sport and that means something in itself, but you also get to represent your country, to represent those who live in your country and those who fight for you country. And all the people who dreamed of being an Olympian, but never made it, you are living their dream and they are living it through you. It's something I'm very honored to be a part of. "

~ Sue Bird


Quote:
"We are representing our country, and we want to do that with the utmost respect. It is a sport, but we are representing something much bigger than ourselves. We want to be respectful of different cultures and different countries, and I want to be a model American and display great sportsmanship."

i like the old school vests. classic. you can't go wrong with classic.

keep the vests, toss the doofy caps or trade them for the slung-back style, which is much more flattering for women and people with big heads in general.

Yeah when I first saw the pic I tried really hard to look at the hat, but was drawn to the bottom of the pic. I turned and said to a friend damn I didnt know Katie had big knockers like that...wow! Actually maybe it's the fact that she's not wearing a sports bra bc those things can def hold ya down! Smile
