Have you ever seen anything so American? It's so 1992 or something. Which makes it SOOOOO 2014.
Apparently there was a lot of heat on Twitter. People don't like the sweaters? Think again, you. And check out this link: http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/02/american-opening-ceremony-uniforms-ralph-lauren-sochi-olymipcs/
The American athletes looked like party animals compared to everyone else at the opening ceremonies. And even that is American.
And I found the sweater on ebay for 2 grand. They are hand-sewn. So, yeah.
