Lance Armstrong has been fined ten million dollars to be paid to SCA Promotions, the Dallas sports company that paid his bonuses, for lying under oath after being found guilty of using performance enhancing drugs.

“Perjury must never be profitable,” a Texas panel wrote (via USA Today) about the decision.

The panel also said in their findings that Lance and Tailwind Sports, the company that managed his cycling team back during his wins, “used perjury and other wrongful conduct to secure millions of dollars of benefits.” They continued that he “expressed no remorse to the panel for their wrongful conduct and continued to lie to the panel throughout the final hearing even while admitting to prior falsehoods and other wrongful conduct.”

“This award is unprecedented,” Tim Herman, Lance‘s attorney, said in a statement. “No court or arbitrator has ever reopened a matter which was fully and finally settled voluntarily. In this matter SCA repeatedly affirmed that it never relied upon anything Armstrong said or did in deciding to settle (in 2006).”

This dispute between Lance and SCA Promotions dates all the way back to 2004, when Lance sued the company for not paying him his contractual bonus for winning the Tour de France.

Lance has since been stripped of his titles and banned from the sport of cycling after using performance-enhancing drugs and lying about it on the stand.

It has just announced that Lance Armstrong‘s longtime girlfriend Anna Hansen initially took the blame for a December accident in Aspen, according to NBC News.

The 43-year-old ex-cyclist was the actual driver, who hit two parked cars, and then decided to leave the scene before police arrived.

“We’ve had our family name smeared over every paper in the world in the last couple of years, and honestly, I’ve got teenagers,” Anna told the police during an interview. “I just wanted to protect my family because I thought ‘Gosh, Anna Hansen hit some cars,’ it’s not going to show up in the papers, but ‘Lance Armstrong hit some cars,’ it’s going to be a national story.”

Anna won’t be facing any charges for the accident, but Lance has received a summons for failing to report an accident and driving too fast under the harsh conditions.

Bradley Cooper is reportedly in talks to star as Lance Armstrong in the upcoming Jay Roach-movie about the disgraced cyclist titled Red Blooded American, Deadline reports.

The 38-year-old actor, who is also in talks to produce the highly anticipated flick, could also potentially be playing Lance‘s teammate Tyler Hamilton.

Tyler was part of Lance‘s US Postal Service Team. He came forward and discussed Lance‘s steroid use on 60 Minutes.

The movie is reportedly being fast-tracked into production.

Lance Armstrong admits to using banned substances in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on her show Oprah’s Next Chapter.

The 41-year-old athlete admitted “yes” to using banned substances to enhance his cycling performances, using EPO, using blood transfusions and blood-doping to enhance his performance, and using other substances such as testosterone, cortisone, and human growth hormones.

Lance also admitted that during all seven of his Tour de France victories, he used banned substances or blood doped, and he shared that he could not have won the tournaments without them.

“I don’t know that I have a great answer,” Lance said when asked why he started using the substances. “I will start my answer by saying this is too late. It’s too late for probably most people. And that’s my fault. I view this situation as one big lie that I repeated a lot of times. It wasn’t as if I said no and I moved off it.”
