Wow, the post ended up looking really ugly for some reason...and it doesn't recognize the whole link.  So I guess you'll have to copy paste, if you're interested

Other suits:

Indonesiais a close second to Egypt for my favorite suit.

It was really interesting to see the variety of color schemes for the COL and VEN suits, some bright and some dark, but all more distinctive than what USAW provided.

Other BAD CALLS:

What was the inspiration for having geezers as the platform docs?  I'm no spring chicken, but it seems very questionable to have doctors who are not physically capable of assisting the athletes, and seem to only make things worse by shooing away the coaches who are more familiar and able to communicate.

Watching the M69s really reinforced my distaste for the tape-it-over idiocy, and the stupidity of the hip numbers.
