Cyclist's lawyers say they'll file again in case against USADA

A federal judge on Monday dismissed a lawsuit filed by Lance Armstrong against the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), but said the seven-time Tour de France winner could refile it within 20 days.

US District Judge Sam Sparks criticized Armstrong's lawyers for the 80-page filing in tossing it out, saying it smacked of a public relations move rather than a challenge to the body that imposes doping sanctions on US athletes.
