There are 596 names on the 2008 U.S. Olympic team and names, like eyes, are windows into the soul.

Is this a rich team? Well,consider Jennifer Nichols (archery), Shani Marks (track and field), Jennifer Goldsack (rowing), Natalie Golda (water polo), David Banks (rowing) and Emily Silver (swimming). After the opening Kenta Bell (track and field) of the Joanne Dow (track and field), there are both Dremiel Byers (wrestling) and those who would Brian Sell (track and field) until they can buy a Portia McGee (rowing) that will need a Jason Parker (shooting).

The team's rebuilding phase has produced the solid foundations of Ariel Rittenhouse (diving), Timothy Morehouse (fencing) and Brenda Villa (water polo) held together by Sarah Hammer (cycling) and fitted into the Bryan Clay (track and field) with a large David Payne (track and field) of Kimberly Glass (volleyball) that will Stuart Holden (soccer) any conditions.

U.S. athletes have physically diverse talents, from Kristin Armstrong (cycling) to Jaime Hipp (water polo) to Brenda Shinn (shooting). Feel free to use Heather Mitts (soccer) to make some Tamika Catchings (basketball) and you should be Brooke Able (synchronized swimming) to win on LaShawn Merritt (track and field) in an Ian Waltz (track and field).
