Olympic uniforms. If we must use yellow /img/vbsmilies/smilies/eek.gif , is it REALLY that hard for a company like Adidas to make garments in the same shade of yellow?

This isn't TOO bad (not great though).




This, on the other hand, is APPALLING!




I saw a photo yesterday of the mens road team - Mick Rogers looked like he was smuggling a salami.
