The men's competition was last week, so the TV coverage of that isn't LIVE, then again maybe like the Tyson American Cup there will only be small clips of the men, like all of Paul Hamm's routine, and David Sender who won the all-around, etc. Here are the results: 2008 Visa Championships Reliant Arena Houston, Texas May 24, 2008 Senior men
