That is a good point about whether he was drunk or not. Cops in Maryland might know all about the Phelps Escalde and just followed his butt like a hawk and when he missed the stop sign, he was fresh meat to the police. That will be really said if Phelps loses his endorsements if they don't the facts of the case. If he was drunk, There goes that rise in swimming popularity some of us in the swimming community would hoping.
If he's drinking and driving, it's totally irrelevant if the police camped out behind him every day and night of the week. I can bet you that the police did not hold him down, force the bottle into his mouth and tell him to drink and drive.
Phelps admitted his "mistake." So, why are you now trying to blame the police for taking away poor little Mikey's endorsements?
