Eric Bolling of The Five said the other day that we should go on and support Olympians by buying clothing. I was curious what they had as offerings, and stopped by and was almost knocked over at the prices. $55 for a t-shirt????? How can they justify this? I am sure not too many people will be buying them at that price. Would love to see what their sales numbers are with prices that ludicrous.

So what? The cost doesn’t make me responsible for it.

obama is to me of an entirely different SPECIES than previous politicans.

how a man so clearly evil and delusional could have attained such a position...is truly astonishing

its as though Al Sharpton had been elected President. Unthinkable

After seeing the USA team sweater designed by RL...I just had to have one...price be damned ($795)...and much to my dismay on the RL official olympics togs website there are none to be had. Just damn, how can I possibly show my team spirit without that spiffy sweater.

is a sarcasm tag necessary.

I saw the uniforms and I understood why they didn’t want the team to wear them outside the village. It’s not security. It’s about not having everybody else point and laugh at them.

This just shows the devaluation of the dollar against other currencies, which is usually carefully hidden by our government. The dollar in particular has seriously declined against the Russian ruble. Russian goods that used to cost $30 or $40 now go for several hundred.

Does it have Izzy on it?

My memories of the Atlanta Olympics include Mayor Bill Campbell's cronies turing the area around the games into a combination flea market, county fair, and Stuckey's -quality souvenir stands.

That, the traffic, and each venue playing the Macarena every time there was a pause in the action.

A bay city rollers concert shirt is only valuable if you have the matching plaid pants

$12 for the T-shirt, $13 for administrative costs, the balance to the Olympic expenses?
