Check out the number on the shorts, both 6. Yes, those are both Brandi. Mia wore number 9. I think she was the only one to pull off the jersey, but I'm not sure. I remember the firestorm too.

Remember the E36 M3 storm over these pictures?

I don't know why, but I've always loved the Buff. If I was Warren Buffet rich, I'd get one and convert it to a private jet. That would be sweet.

National Geographic #252

It's easy to forget just how old that publication is.

Yeah, same here. Watching the game, didn't even notice it. She was a football player shedding the jersey after a great goal, BFD (in the ironic sense). Made me ashamed to be an American when our Media Nonsense Machine made such a big deal about it.

Yeah, I do. And even though I'm not Canadian, it made me just as mad. "Double Standards" suck.

I refuse to post a hotlink showing the origin of why the word "suck" is considered an insult, so I'll just post up Brandi, Mia, and their teammates after the gold in Athens.

L to R, Kristine Lilly, Mia Hamm, Julie Foudy, Brandi Chastain and Joy Fawcett.

Some of my European friends who live here in the US still tease me that I live in a country where women play "better" football than men. Gives me an excuse to remind them that American women are the best in the world. Shuts `em up real quick, since most of them are actually married to American girls..

"Yeah, where's your `green card' suckah! Oh, that's right..you met a real woman on your tourist visa!!"

I thought that the E36 M3 storm came from some of them being under the drinking age? Or am I missing your intent?

jalopnik said: This grotesque mish-mash of automotive design themes is the Sbarro Autobau — a "tribute" to Swiss racing driver Fredy Lienhard. We assume the designer hates him because this is truly the ugliest car we've ever seen. We've seen some ugly cars in our time, but today marks some good news for Japan's Mitsuoka Orochi, which is now no longer the ugliest car in the world. Now it's just the second ugliest. That's because the most shocking debut at this year's Geneva Motor Show wasn't the hybrid super cars or the bevy of crossovers. Rather it was this one-off concept car built by eccentric designer Franco Sbarro. Let's take a look at why this beast is so stunningly horrible on the eyes. Starting from the front (or at least what we think is the front), the Autobau looks like an early prototype of a Cylon Raider so frightening even homicidal robots were forced to change it for fear of getting the heebie-jeebies. Moving backwards there's a windshield so flat it's unlikely anyone over the age of six will be able to see through it. [Sbarro Autobau: The Ugliest Car We've Ever Seen] Along the sides the design incorporates Lamborghini Gallardo cutlines through the windows, which alone would look good. Unfortunately, the designer slapped a set of windows on behind the passenger cockpit making it look absolutely revolting. And the clamshell-like way in which it opens to swallow driver and passenger? Hideous. And the rear end? We'll let you know if we find one. The car essentially ends with an overhang so gigantic anything over a four-degree incline will cause the Autobau to get stuck. According to the creator, there's a Ferrari V12 engine stuffed in the back of the car producing 500 HP — power you'll need to escape anyone with a camera.

They have to be joking. That lawnmower looks like Carmen Electra compared to the ugliest car ever built (below).

Nah, not really. Besides my anger about "double standards" for women, I also think a lot of the "drinking age" stuff is nonsense. I had my first drink at a family wedding when I was 13..and the world didn't fall apart because of it.

"Zero Tolerance" is really `zero thinking'. Good grief! They just won a gold at the freaking Olympics! That party should have been a lot better than any wedding I've ever attended..

Okay, just making sure I wasn't missing something there--I couldn't figure out where the double standards came in with regards to that particular picture.

And I whole-heartedly agree on the drinking age thing.
