I’m picking the favourites. The American Women’s Gymnastics program is simply too strong to be beaten at the 2008 Olympics.
The three-up, three-count Team competition format will keep it “interesting”. But look for the Red White and Blue atop the podium in Beijing.
Winning the Olympics will seem easier than getting on to Team USA in the first place.

… From Youtube user Malimalimali123 comes this great montage of everybody who’s likely to be in the running for this summer’s U.S. team.
Watching it I’m struck anew by the depth and good, clean gymnastics of the frontrunners on the U.S. team. 2004, the era of we-could-field-two-teams-that-could-medal was deep. 2008 could be deeper still.
