As much as these guys make you would think they would have someone picking out what they should wear. Is it me or is their style just horrible?

It's you. And their style is horrible.

Tim's height is 6' 3", how exactly tall did you think he was?

rich guys can look so frumpy

He's 6'3" -- the guy next to him must be a giant.

Good to see the focus here is on really important issues...

Trivia: "akamai" means clever or smart or intelligent in Hawaiian.
Still used in modern Hawaiian-English slang, e.g. "She one akamai wahine."

----------

He's supposed to be 6'3". He just looks shorter walking next to Sagan who is simply taller.

And wow, look at that guy with the suit.
Must be about 8 feet tall, and he's got three legs.

Cook looks very budget. This is marketing for the new lowcost phone.
