The Olympic Games were quite profitable for the United States men's and women's gymnastics team. The women won silver and the men won bronze. There was an all around Gold Medal for Nastia Liukin on the women's side, and individual apparatus gold medals for both the men and the women. All in all Team USA was very proud of their accomplishments in Beijing.
