    I would have put Alicia instead ot Kyla. Would have been good to have some previous olympic experience on the team!

    This is the best possible team. Right down to the alternates. Now that they are on the team, they can focus on doing the best job they can possibly do. The pressure of making the team is off their shoulders. These ladies will grow, clean up, and get better in this time before they actually start competing. 100% prediction for GOLD!!!

    glad to see a team of all rounders, and genuine medal contenders on all apparatus.sad for Sacramone, but I couldn’t see how her 2 events could ever edge out Maroney who, if she can show on floor, will be a steady team member. alternates great, will be good experience for the two young girls. roll on competition time :)

    I’m happy with this choice! I think they’re going to crush everyone including Romania! I think these ones will make event finals Jordyn, Gabby or Kyla (AA), McKayla (VT), Gabby & Kyla (UB) Aly & Jordyn (BB), Jordyn & Aly (FX)

    This is just my prediction.
    Team
    USA (Gold)
    ROM (Silver)
    CHN or RUS (Bronze)
    With the way Russia has been performing I’m starting to leave them off the podium. 2 can’t carry a 3 up 3 count. All it’s going to take is for Aliya to make the makes she did in the 2012 Euro’s or the fall Victoria did in the last meet with Russia on event finals uneven bars. I know Victoria beat Aliya in the AA but i’m not convinced that she’ll make the podium and with the win from Gabby at 2012 Olympic Trials, she is hungry for the gold as well. I’m not count Jordyn out among all of the girls in this field she is the one that has pulled thru and beaten everyone. Then there is Larissa she’s an amazing gymnast and wants a medal. I think the show down is between those three. I think Jordyn will come out on top and Gabby and Larissa with be a close call with second and third.
