Congrats lil ladies!

Yesterday, the ‘Fab 5′ squad brought home the gold in the Team Finals, making it the first time since 1996 that the USA Women’s gymnastic team had won gold in the Olympics. Carmelo Anthony was on hand to shower the girls with love after the girl’s soared to victory over the Russia and Romania teams.   Meanwhile,  16 year old Gabby Douglas, who helped lead the team to victory, has been drawing comparisons to Dominique Dawes who was a part of the winning ‘Magnificent Seven’ squad in 96.

Dominique sang her praises in a recent interview:

I was at the Olympic trials, I’m in the media section and, you know, you’re not supposed to show a bias or favoritism at all and I was jumping out of my seat watching this young, little girl.

I will be honest with you, I do not like that nickname [Flying Squirrel]. I’m going to call her “Doin’ It Douglas,” “Wowing It Douglas.” I am trying my hardest to come up with

Huge Huge win for Alexandra Raisman, Jordyn Wieber, Mc Kayla Maroney, Kyla Ross and Gabby Douglas!
