This year has been so lean on competition, with Anthony Gobert out of both Supersport and Superbike, and Roberts out of Superbike, it has been less than flashy.

Some great races though.

Man, for Honda to be the #1 seller of 600ss, they don't have a single legimate racer in supersport this year, without Buckmaster, neither does Yamaha really.

Talk about fun to watch! You can't relax if he's within a second on the last lap: pass-pass-podium!

He does love his kitty litter, though.

Good for Aaron, (Georgia Boy). His fans are almost as fun to watch as he is.

Yates is fun to watch. I really enjoy all the AMA races, which are more competitive than WSB or MotoGP. Speed Channel does a great job covering the AMA races. The Speed U.S. broadcasting team makes the race more interesting because they get closer to the riders i.e. I know a lot more about them than the WSB or MotoGP guys. My favorite is Tommy Hayden cause he rides my beloved ZX-6R. Go Tommy!

Roger Lee Hayden ain't legitimate? Wait, let me re-phrase that...wouldn't want his folks gittin' mad...

Anyhoo, Honda's got Roger Lee...Jake Zemke...Alex Gobert. Sure, they might not be Miguel or Kurtis, but Roger's at least getting on the podium.

Ant'ny Gobert's great, and he's always a threat to win, but...that's just it. The potential to win is there, but it never quite matches up to the reality. He needs to be on a Honda...then maybe he'll take home a few of those titles everybody's been waiting for all these years.
