Hell ya, I'd be rooting for him. And who cares if thats not a flattering picture of him..replacing Paul Hamm is a BIG deal and this guy did it..glad to see it was a desi

this guy has a great backstory. He's basically been the most consistent US male gymnast since 2001! but he was only an alternate for Athens for the second Olympics in a row and he basically just mentally quit and didn't make the team in 2007.

One year later he's going to Beijing to compete.

NBC is gonna do at least like 3 pieces on him just wait

muscles = good. i just meant that his face all twisted up in effort does not look that great in a still shot. but anyways, he really is talented, he missed getting an automatic spot on the olympic team this year by something around nine hundredths of a point.
