I was there that night in Atlanta at the Olympics at the team finals. I had wanted tickets to the all around finals but had to settle for team finals. Boy, was I glad things worked out that way! It was a great night.
Amanda Borden was TRUELY the hardest worker on the US team... She didnt have the hardest routines but she persevered!!!!!! And I have always been proud of her for that!!
4 beautiful women representing the most beautiful sport in the world. And that goes to ALL the U.S. gymnast ever! All of your accomplishments will live on forever!!❤
I really, really enjoyed this. Especially hearing the older gymnasts chat to each other, with the benefit of hindsight on their experiences. It was really interesting and relaxed and frank, with you all talking from the kind of understanding of the sport. Loved it! Thank you.
Rewatching clips of the ‘96 Olympic team on YT. Every single gymnast on that team could have easily won the all-around title. They were all amazing in every single event.
@@beeaware3621 It's a stupid comment. Simone has good form and does harder skills than anyone else and she's consistent. Dawes had nothing more difficult than anyone, shitty form and all she did was choke when it mattered. Just stop people
I don’t know if that’s true, I can see how you’d think that but she’s just being a good ambassador for the sport. She’s clearly had a great experience unlike some others
This was a great segment. Amanda and Shannon are such wonderful ambassadors for gymnastics. and P.S. Congrats Miss Val on your national title!!!

Amanda is spectacular. She truly is an amazing commentator as well.
Once again, you’re incredible Amanda! One of the top gymnastics commentators in the US right now. Period
@MrBadabimBadabum How many names do you have? You should really use different words so we think you're a different person

4:50 Enter Amanda Borden, whom fate made a gentleman's wife in 2006.
Amanda “I wasn’t a superstar athlete on the team” ….Uuummmm YEAH YOU WERE!!
What are you talking about girl… THE BEST
If the scoring system of today was implemented in the 90's. Dominique Dawes would have the the first Simone Biles!!!
Totally agree! She was sooo underscored and underrated ..... truly the most talented gymnast of the 90s era
No she wouldn't LMAO

It is truly bizarre how fast Shannon Miller here fell from a childhood hero of mine to a fake USAG-molded puppet- #Creepy!
#notrelaventtothehashtag
explain?
USAG hasn't paid attention to Miller in ten years.
I’m sure she’s arsed
