	Paul Hamm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Paul Elbert Hamm (born September 24, 1982 in Waukesha, Wisconsin) is a US gymnast and Olympic gold medalist.
		Hamm held a good position after three rounds, but a disastrous fall on the vault, in which he nearly fell into the judges' bench, dropped him to 12th place and he looked to be completely out of the running for a medal of any sort.
		Hamm was the James E. Sullivan Award winner for 2004 as the outstanding amateur athlete in the United States.

	Paul Hamm is world champ but Morgan shines, too
		Hamm competes on the pommel horse during the 2002 U.S. Gymnastics championships in Cleveland.
		But Paul made more history in 2003 by becoming the first United States male gymnast to win the world all-around title and Paul is expected to be a main attraction at the Olympics in Athens next month.
		The tragedy is that Morgan is not viewed as quite the same gymnast as his brother - and probably for good reason: a devastating shoulder injury in 2001 that left his arm paralyzed for four-plus months.

	Paul Hamm and the Right Thing
		The current soap opera surrounding American gymnast Paul Hamm's wrongly-awarded gold medal is particularly annoying, because it has encouraged sportswriters to hold forth on a topic that is alien to most of them: doing the right thing.
		Hamm's medal is a windfall, like receiving too much money from a bank teller or finding someone's cash-filled wallet on the sidewalk.
		Hamm has a rare opportunity to remind people of the bright and noble side of sports that has almost been consumed in greed and hype, but time is running out.
