I am embarrassed, but not because of our lack of medals.

I am embarrassed by our athletes. Their multicolored hair, tattoos, sloppy clothes, poor hygiene, and rumors of them “hooking up” with anything that moves in the Olympic village make me want to change to channel in disgust.

It had gotten so bad the other night, that I breathed a sigh of relief when an exceptionally poorly dressed boy who's pants keep falling down (because the small boy was wearing XXXX size clothes) while doing the slope style freestyle skiing turned out to be NOT American...

I was like THANK GOD! at least THAT one isn't one of ours!

That is exactly how I felt when I saw that kid!

Sad that we’ve come to expect our boys to look like sloppy brats.

I for one am tired of hearing them all whine and complain, Bode in particular. Funny, other athletes are getting down the hill...hmmm

At least that slopestyle ski kid had the good sense to take the gum out of his mouth during the medal ceremony on the first day.

.....”I am embarrassed by our athletes. Their multicolored hair, tattoos, sloppy clothes, poor hygiene, and rumors of them “hooking up” with anything that moves in the Olympic village make me want to change to channel in disgust”.....

Much truth in saying that....and it’s all about them. Sad to see such comments they are making in ‘blaming everything and anyone for their no-wins and poor performances.... from their suits to the condition of the slopes and on and on in why they are failing so.

Sadly they do represent most of our young today....victim mentality and life is suppose to be “fair” to me!
