Hey everyone,

I just wanted to know what everyone's opinion was on who they think is going to make the olympic team, men and women?:)

My teams would be:

Women:
Nastia Liukin
Shawn Johnson
Sam Peszek
Alicia Sacramone
Shayla Worley
Bridget Sloan
Alternates:
Darlene Hill/Ivana Hong/Gerlalen Stack-Eaton

Men:
Paul Hamm
Sasha Artemev
Jonathan Horton
Kevin Tan
Raj Bhavsar
David Durante
Alternates:
David Sender/Sean Golden/Guillermo Alvarez
 
Women-
Shawn Johnson
Nastia Liukin
Alicia Sacramone
Shayla Worley
Sam Peszek
Ivana Hong
Alternates: Bridget Sloan haha and idk

Men? Idk The Hamms and like a buncha other good gymnasts =]
 
Women:
Sacramone
Liukin
Johnson
Worley
Peszek or Hill
Beiger or Memmel... but probably Beiger
Alternates: Hong and Stack-Eaton

Men's
Paul Hamm
Alexander Atemev
Sean Golden
Raj Whose-Last-name-i-can't-spell
Johnathan Horton
David Durante
Alternates: Morgan Hamm and kevin Tan.. or maybe Kevin instead of Raj, i think i'm bias because i love Raj lol
 
I think the women will be: Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liunkin, Alicia Sacramone, Chelsie (sp?) Memmel (if she's healthy enough), Shayla Worley, and Sam Peszek; with Bridget Sloan, Ivana Hong, and Jana Bieger as possible alternates.
 
It's kind of funy because there are so many great girls out there, and the top qualifiers are pretty obvious (like the ones on EVERYONE'S lists). I'll take the obvious Shawn, Nastia, and Alicia, plus add Shayla, Sam (love her so much), Ivana(yes, I'm biased and also a sucker for german giants), and as alternates Darlene Hill and Chellsi Memmel. I would love to see Chellsie and/or Darlene compete, but I'm just not sure.

As far as the guys go I agree completely with gymnasticsbabie's list.
 
Pama seems to have set her eyes on college for now.....

I have no idea about a men`s team - I am not all that much interested in the men.

But for the girls I go with:

- Nastia Liukin
- Shawn Johnson
- Alicia Sacramone
- Jana Bieger

And the last spots idk....Peszek, Sloan I guess.
 
I actually hope Durante isn't on the olympic team. His floor routine is so wimpy. (Artemev's is too, but his pommel horse routine alone is enough to make up for any other shortcommings)

Aww i love David Durante!! he has good highbar though.. so its kind of like nastia, her vault is so "wimpy" but her bars is outstanding. and yes i agree with you, i think they need artemev for his pommel horse. and you can't deny that he is such a beautiful gymnast to watch.
