Doesn't the BGP give you load balancing capabilities that you would not get
from a static route?

Michael,
No benefit whatsoever as long as you are homed to only 1 ISP. Stick to the
simple road, and use static/default routes. BGP is useful if you are
connected to multiple providers, but it's overkill/unnecessary when you only
have one service provider.
