My thought process last night...

...behind all the "wow"s and "amazing"s and "that would be so hard"s. It went something like this:

So I guess Shaun White is such a big wig in snowboarding that he can get away with wearing jeans in the olympics.
Wait, all the American snowboarders are wearing jeans.

What idiot thought jeans would be a good uniform in the SNOW in the WINTER olympics? That can't be right. But gosh they sure look like jeans.

They all look like slackers.

But every pair of "jeans" is faded and worn in the exact same places. They can't really be jeans.

It's actually pretty cool.

Whoever thought of making snowpants look like jeans as the official Olympic uniform had a great sense of humor.
Go USA!

I had to do a double-take with that "denim" too. It looks so very American rebel. I'm sure it only adds to the international view of Americans as informal slackers.

I thought the same thing initially, but if you think about it, snowboarding was invented in the U.S., so basically anything we do is at the forefront and "trailblazing", so to speak. Jeans it is.
