I think Ramon is a very good rider, and I am happy for him, I'm just saying if you laid out what both riders did this year and gave me a choice to pick which year I would have rather had it would be Garretts year, and not really even close.
Fair enough and as I mentioned, and I'll do it again, Gomez is a great rider. But I do think it is worth mentioning that Gomez isn't exactly riding hopeless longshots. He's riding live mounts every race too. That goes with the territory. Gomez is at the point in his career where he can be choosy and only ride when and who he wants.
