the nerve...

So, I had a little break from work and decided to do a little light reading about Michael Phelps kicking Olympic (and well general) ass. Then, I found this...

It's an article by Pat Forde who writes for ESPN.com. It begins as an innocent enough article about the opening ceremonies in terms of dress mostly. Then, the low blow... #1 of the top 10 worst dressed countries in the Olympics: Denmark for wearing jean shorts... fair enough, but he compares this to Gainesville. I kid you not:
"• The 10 worst-dressed teams:
1. Denmark. Jean shorts. JEAN SHORTS?! This isn't Gainesville, Fla.; this is the Olympics."

WTF?
