I'm not in disagreement with you. I lumped them together because parts of their game were less or missing.

If you don't like the rules to the game, you can always leave it.

I thought Davison had an outstanding tournament but for the finals. Gomez wrestled very well but lives and dies by the big move. That cement mixer in the finals was the wrong move at the wrong time. H ...
