During a meeting on Monday, the Texas Lottery Commission told the 67-year-old Grand Prairie man that he is not the rightful winner of a $1 million prize – even though its own investigators have told police he bought the winning ticket.

Lance Armstrong and his girlfriend, singer Sheryl Crow, have been caught up in a bitter lawsuit brought against them by the cyclist’s former assistant, reports IMDb.com. Mike Anderson, who also worked as Mr. Armstrong’s mechanic, says he was wrongfully dismissed after performing above and beyond the call of duty. Mr. Anderson also says he had a deal with Mr. Armstrong to open up a bike shop, which has now been scrapped, and he wants $500,000 in damages. But Mr. Armstrong, who filed a law suit against Mr. Anderson in December seeking to declare an alleged employment contract invalid, laughs off the assertions. He insists he reluctantly fired Mr. Anderson because he was messing up his training schedule. “Mr. Anderson tends to get car sick on training rides in Spain, and Mr. Armstrong would have to go back, which was not the best training regimen,” said Tim Herman, Mr. Armstrong’s lawyer.
