Paul Hamm commenting on the Olympics, his brother, his own injuries, and the chances of the U.S. men's team in China. Recorded on June 23, 2008 at Port Columbus Airport.
We didn't know that there were other qualifications and that no one made it. However, I think that we have a really strong team for Beijing. We are definitely coming home with a medal.
I wasn't sure how I felt about Paul being named as one of the Two. He obviously deserves it; if asked, he would have been the first I named. However, with all the controversey he's gone through, I thought that it would probably be better if they had named him with the rest of the team and named Joey on the first night instead. We in the stadium were heavily under the impression that only the top two who competed at Trials would be named.
Cheater. He should return his gold medal from 2004 Olympics to that Korean guy.

It's sad he stepped down off the team but it's for the best.
