Over the summer during practices, specifically the ones I skipped, my water polo team voted to have black and white checkered speedos as our team uniform.

Man are we going to fail or what when our team picture goes on the yearbook and is distributed to over 3,000 students?

The orders came in today...man, was I ticked when I saw how stupid they looked.

The democratic process has failed us. :(

No, I just mocked you for it already. Unless you want more?

'Sides, most people avoid speedos..not the most pleasant thing.

Fitting considering I stole it from someone else.

As always, it's a uniform. No matter how silly the uniform looks like, it's still *the*.

I've always thought that the French Foreign Legion uniform looks silly, but the force is no joke, and it's the traditional uniform.

The Mechanical Engineers' student association uniform is a hot pink overall, so that's your extreme example. See: http://www.tky.hut.fi/~kik/Arkisto/Galleria/vieraskyykka-04/index.html

Guys look better in speedos than in those hideous swim trunks that are so popular here in N America. Granted, they're not for all guys, but I would think that the water polo team would look hot in speedos....
Am I really the only one? :confused:

No, oh no! But I personally like board shorts on my hubby...he's just not cut out to wear speedos.

I remember during the 1996 Atlanta games my friend and I bought an issue of Life magazine that had a layout of black and whites of some of the Olympic athletes. The centerfold was 5 or 6 members of the Men's Olympic Water Polo team and they were (supposedly) in their uniform, however they were all holding a water polo ball right at waist level, so it looked for all intents and purposes like they were naked. Friend and I smoked a little and came up with all kinds of theories about how you could read their personalities by how they were holding their equipment. *sigh* good times!
