Nationals' Rookies Hazed, U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Team Weeps

Rookie hazing is a staple of sports, but none is more colorful than baseball.

Having first-year players carry around girly pink backpacks has been all the rage for quite some time. Hell, last year, the Washington Nationals made their rookies paint themselves blue and dress up as the Smurfs.

This year, however, the Nats may have outdone themselves. Thanks to Gio Gonzalez (no, really, thank you, Gio), here are the 2012 Nationals rookies dressed up as U.S. Olympic gymnasts:

Feast your eyes on Tyler Moore, Corey Brown, Eury Perez, Sandy Leon, Christian Garcia, Steve Lombardozzi and Bryce Harper in their Sunday "best."

Eat your heart out, Gabby Douglas.
