DOMINIQUE MOCEANU AND CARLY PATTERSON
This morning two former U.S. Olympic gymnasts joined us... Dominique Moceanu who won gold in the team competition in 1996 and Carly Patterson who won gold on her own in 2004.

Dominique talked about recent comments she made about the selection of the team and the injury rate of gymnasts. While critical of the system, she did say she is cheering for Team USA and thinks they'll win a lot of medals, and be in the running for the team gold that she won in 1996.

Carly talked about what it's like to live in the Olympic village (people are friendly, but focused) and how much of an honor it is to be one of a select few people ever to represent the United States at the Olympics.

Today, Dominique is a new mom (of a seven month old) and Carly is getting ready to launch a singing career.
