For years I had to endure the rbr chatter, if only Roberto Heras could ride
for himself. Now he is, and now there is an ominous silence from rbr about
him. C'mon you Heras big mouths, where is ya?

You are so full of shit. Show actual articles and post them if you have any.

Besides, hiring Roberto did make his life easier because it was one fewer
mountain specialist to keep his eyes on. That alone won't make the
difference in any given Tour. One more thing is that when he was hired by
USPS, it was not yet clear how he would evolve as a rider. Anyone that
spends 3 years with USPS is not going to perform at the top the first year
out. They are all sent on sub-optimal race schedules and it can take several
years to learn how to train to be at the top. The bottom line is that what
happens now with Heras and his career will have very little bearing on what
*could have happened* if he had raced on a top team as a protected rider for
those 3 years.

We may never know about Heras, but we all can see how stupid you are. For
the most part, you smell like a troll but you are such a Lance homer that a
reponse is called for on occasion.

No sign of him today, either. Such a disappointment. LANCE isn't doing
such a hot job either, losing so much time to some French guys on French
teams.

They support Roberto by second guessing Lance and everyone else. Sort
of a wink and a nod.

Perhaps they are hiding in Pyrenean mountain passes preying on unsuspecting roulers.
