For disgraced 7-time Tour de Force champion Lance Armstrong, it only gets worse.
Armstrong has been sued as part of a class-action lawsuit, accusing his works is mere fiction rather than inspirational autobiography.
Rob Stutzman, a public affairs consultant and cycling enthusiast Jonathan Wheeler cited they want their money back, filing the lawsuit in Sacramento federal court, alleging he was duped into buying the books, on grounds that they were legitimate and true, and not the result of fraud and false advertising. Armstrong's books, "It's Not About the Bike" and "Every Second Counts" were best sellers. Stutz said he was duped into reading Armstrong's book, believing what he thought was the cyclist's compelling life story.
"Throughout the book, Defendant Armstrong repeatedly denies that he ever used banned substances before or during his professional cycling career."
Armstrong long denied he ever used drugs to boost his skills, but now that the lie is out, the class action suit has been opened. Despite his admission of doping, others have said they are suing, or will soon sue.
The federal lawsuit specify how much they are seek, but does ask for "any statutorily permissible damages, attorneys' fees, expenses and costs."
Armstrong publicly "We sued so many people," Armstrong recently told Oprah Winfrey.
