I remember the summer Olympics in Atlanta. We were living in Alabama and residents were furious. The folks in Atlanta gave all the homeless people one way tickets to Birmingham, AL to get them out of Georgia for the Olympics! I can understand why that might not go over well.

Actually, they kinda grew on me... Star-spangled hot mess? No wayFebruary 2014 "Whether you loved (the sweaters) or whether you didn't, it didn't matter," says Hal Rubenstein, founding editor and fashion director of In Style magazine. "They looked like a team - and that's what matters. (Ralph Lauren) wanted them to look like the stars they were, and they looked like stars and they felt like stars."
Those cardigans "are not clothes - they're costumes. And that's the mistake everyone (was) making."
"When you see pictures of (the cardigans) out of context, they look so bold," said Elle magazine's creative director Joe Zee. "(But) did you see the opening ceremonies? It was so colorful, and it felt like they were these real 'don't mess with me' kind of sweaters."Read it All: www.fresnobee.com/2014/02/19/3778705/star-spangled-hot-mess-no-way.htmlTAGS: Ralph Lauren / Polo / Opening Ceremonies / Sochi Olympics / Sweaters

Set your DVR's and watch for our Short Track Olympians TOMORROW on NBC Sports Network's 'Best of U.S. Awards'. It comes on at 4pm Pacific Time, so I'm guessing 7pm Eastern(?)
I think this may be the thing we were voting on last month - is this the one where our Men's Relay Team was up for 'Best Moment' of the Olympics? Anybody know?
EDIT: I just checked back to where I posted about the poll - and YES, this show IS where the winners are announced! I remember that many of the skaters posted pics from this event, so it's pre-recorded...
