No. I can guarantee they trained just as hard, if not harder than Armstrong and lost. That’s bullshit. I expected better out of you. That’s like kids in school who work just in hard but still fail tests simply because they don’t get it. I studied for maybe two tests my whole life, and not for a long time, but I still got excellent grades compared to kids who studied twice as hard. Is that bullshit? Working the same as someone else does not make up for NATURAL skills and talent. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/lance-armstrong-to-be-stripped-of-tour-de-france-titles-and-banned-for-life/264844)._
