I suspect that the 7206 and 3750 both thing the other guy has
default... and with no more specific to follow the packet just
pingpongs between the 2 devices. I would also suspect you see this for
more than one destination :(

picking just one entry (last entry I see) from route-views.routeviews.org:
BGP routing table entry for 76.164.192.0/19, version 708055091
Paths: (35 available, best #31, table Default-IP-Routing-Table)
...
4436 6939 53340 36114
    69.31.111.244 from 69.31.111.244 (69.31.111.244)
      Origin IGP, metric 0, localpref 100, valid, external
      Community: 4436:21216

all of 36114(versaweb) traffic would seem to head through
53340(vegasnap) on the way home, so... maybe something else is going
on like you didn't accept transit routes (or send them or something
else) from your transit? hard to say with as little info as we see
here, but :)
