Nicely done, Kiwis. No crocs this time, I see we're learning ;)

Nice looking bunch.
Did anyone notice how much the USA team outfits looked like PJs during the women's moguls?
Fuzzy blue PJs with little white stars on them.

Wait a minute. Iran's government allowed its delegation to attend a ceremony where everyone wears brightly-colored clothes? Not being a good homophobe, Mr. Ahmadinejad!

Why is the country comprising England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland listed as Great Britain? Great Britain is the island consisting of England, Scotland and Wales. The country that includes those three plus Northern Ireland is the United Kingdom.

Yawn.......everyone I asked about this today, including me, either didn't watch or fell asleep it was such a dull program.

Every time that I see anything from Bermuda, I always expect it to disappear in the Bermuda Triangle. Or does that not happen anymore?

the only thing that disappears in bermuda these days is profit from overseas insurance companies ; )

those white clothed dancers standing along the path of parade of nations look like fools as they try to jive to the music....hilarious

I agree.
Having them standing there moving around the whole time was distracting and stupid.

This is a disgusting article. Obviously people are voting on their favorite teams. Also there is a distinct air of prejudice against countries that do not have a real winter season. Unfortunately those countries also have very few white people and like Jamaica are getting ratings of 3.9 Which has nothing to do with what they are wearing and everything to do with the fact that it is sunny beachy Jamaica, black and mixed race dominated Jamaica, in the white dominated winter sports.

Azerbaijan ranked number 3 currently. There cannot be THAT many Azeris among Huffpost readers, can there? (I admit, I AM one of them, though.) Fly in the face of your "people are voting for their teams" argument...

So, basically a bunch of athletes in winter tracksuits... nothing much to differentiate between them. Yet some large differences between the white and non-white countries, I've noticed... preferential bias based on race, rather than outfits? Would never have guessed.

USA looked horrible.

They looked like they were wearing long johns.

I agree. Their pants were terrible. And looked terrible on them.

A few teams looked really slick, but otherwise this year it just seemed like a bunch of jogging suits. Not very creative, and usually the teams look incredible. USA and Canada were among the best - surprising they're not represented here. Great Britain and Monaco were incredibly stylish.

The Mexican team is just there to try to sneak into the USA.

Wow, what an incredibly bigotted and small minded thing to post.

Actually the majority of Mexicans would prefer to stay in Mexico but the economics have forced many to look elsewhere; just like your and my ancestors did when they came to the United States. (If you are native American please disregard, and if you are African American you have more right to be here than most of us).

Well I do have native American blood, and had 14 family members in General Washington's Army. The rest of the family came over LEGALLY. I bet your family followed the rules and got in line too right Mike?

Montenegro looks like they have Washington Generals uniforms.
