who else is waiting for the gymnastics during the olympics?? I do not really care who wins i just love watching it. I was in it when I was little and loved it and have watched it ever since i was about 4 ! I can still remember when nadia got the perfect 10's , and watching olga on the balance beam. I love it.

I always love watching the gymnastics the best and can remember both Olga and Nadia! Olga Korbut turned 55 yesterday, which makes me feel old as I still think of her as 17 with pigtails!!

10 months late, but definitely me. That is the one sport that I am so fully into watching. The strength, flexibility, and stamina is truly amazing. You don't even realize how hard they have to work do do a single thing they do on there. And the artistry makes it so beautiful too. Glad you are like me in watching the Olympics.

This is one of the few sports that I really watch during Olympics. It's so sad that we would have to wait for another 4 years to watch the London Olympics. Before olympics starts, I usually have my own picks already. I base them on gymnasts' performances on prior world championships.
Anastasia/Nastia Liukin is the 2008 Olympic All Around champion. I actually thought it's gonna be Shawn Johnson because of her extreme difficulty. Well, too bad her uneven bars routine wasn't enough to get her to the top spot.
