Can anyone else believe that in just two more weeks we will know the results of Nationals?  I am so freaking excited about this!  Looking at the talent that is going to be on that mat, I think the U.S. has a good shot at worlds.  I would put Sam Pezsek into finals for beam and floor or vault.  I think Kayla Williams would get into Floor and Vault finals.  Nastia would advance on bars and beam, and Ivana possibly on floor and bars.  That would be who I would pick for the U.S, although Bridget Sloan could contend with Ivana, and Kayla’s lack of international experience is definitely a drawback.  I would also like to see Chellsie Memmel back in international competition, so we will just have to see.

As you can tell, just because some of these gymnasts aren’t my favorites doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy watching them; I still think they deserve what they have earned.  It’s just that other’s seem to appeal to me more.
