Default rbr silent on Roberto

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.

Yeah, I thought he'd go on the attack yesterday for some TTT
revenge. 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.

Please post the proper emoticon at the end for the
sarcasm impaired.

Thank you.

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

There is a time and a place for just about everything.
