OK, so the color may not be too good on my TV, and my eyesight may be worse, but I swear the US olympic uniforms are red, white, and black.
What's up with that?? Did someone forget something, or are they trying to downplay nationalism?
Olympics don't seem like the best place to try to make an anti-nationalistic statement.
Not black, just a dark blue AFAIK. But you're right depending on the lighting, camera angle, etc. they can look black at times.
When I was in the navy, they told us it was blue if they said it was.

Once had a liscensed PE tell me that, "If i write the sky is yellow on a drawing, and stamp it.. the sky is yellow."
of course he was a crook who would stamp any drawing for $85. How do you think I got a bunch of plant revision drawings stamped?

Bush To Olympians: 'Bring Back Lots Of Valuable Gold' August 6, 2008 | Issue 44•32 WASHINGTON—President George W. Bush delivered an encouraging motivational message to Beijing-bound Olympians Monday, urging them to "compete swifter, higher, and stronger in their pursuit of gold" so that they may achieve not just the glory of victory but the hard cash value of the much-needed commodity. "Truly, victory and pride are beyond price, but gold is currently going for $916.78 a troy ounce," Bush said in the Rose Garden speech, delivered just hours after he was unable to secure an agreement with the Chinese ambassador to forge the Olympic medals out of debt-relief certificates. "In striving, you uplift the hearts of all Americans, but in victory alone will you actually get something that can help us out of the current economic slump. I mean, silver is barely over 17 bucks. Might as well drop out at that rate." Bush later held a closed-door Oval Office meeting with swimmer Michael Phelps, whose possible eight gold medals could potentially help the Olympic team break even on travel costs.
