Never met George in person but from what I've seen in his interviews he just seems really shy. Bob is amazing. What personality. As far as Merckx goes, remember he's european. And unlike Ivan who is Italian, Eddy is Belgium. I'm not downing any nationality, I'm just saying they tend to be different. I think that is somewhat of what is missing in George. I think he has the physical ability to win,but the killer instinct isn't there. Especially like Lance and Eddy had. I really wonder sometimes why some people have that 'killer instinct' and some don't. Even in the business world you see it. And when you see it it makes you think to yourself, I'd better'd get out of their way or they're gonna run over me! Don't you think part of it is some kind of anger mixed with determination and drive and a bunch of other emotions?
