Dumbest comments about Phelps thread

Was looking at the Chicago Tribune web page, and one of the printed opinion letters had a complaint that Phelps was not patriotic because he wasn't singing during the national anthem. :rolleyes: Also complained that Phelps and Lochte laughed briefly. (Don't know if this requires registration: www.chicagotribune.com/.../chi-16-top-viewaug16,0,1054318.story) The comments section is running 99+% favorable to Phelps, with mostly "get a life" as a response to the letter writer. One person said that Phelps & Lochte exchanged a few words when there was a glitch in the anthem audio, but I didn't see that medal ceremony.

  • The letter writer was from Valparaiso, Indiana (Valpo). I believe the Tribune tries to publish letters from the provinces as a way of keeping its market broad. Wonder what Sam Zell, the owner, who is no fool, would have to say about that letter. How about people who blubber and rub their eyes during the national anthem? Or sneeze? Can't they wait til after?
