better than Roberto.

I give the edge to Beltran.

Goddamm.

You've got your head up your ass.

Heras has won the Vuelta twice, finished second once.
Beltran is good, but has not come close to winning a GT.[/QUOTE]

Giving Beltran the edge over Heras in La Vuelta , epsecially this years La Vuelta which is damn hilly , is really dumb.

Beltran seems quite strong.
