Michael Phelps and a bong? Is there any truth to this?

are we sure that's Phelps? If true, he seems to have a habit of screwing up in the very next Novembers after Olympics... anyone here from the UK? How reputable is "news of the world"? How could he be so careless?

    Have you been smoking the weed as well, er, excuse me, the tobacco water pipe? I don't believe anyone has said he's a god or hold him to god standards. I think many of us are merely holding him to the same standards we'd hold our kids or other citizens to. In addition, please remember Phelps has/is banking literally on his wholesome image. Do you not recall he was one of the enhanced drug testing pilot program participants at the Olympics? I think it is very telling that many of those who are chiming in on the "it's just pot" mantra don't have kids and haven't had to explain this to impressionable youngsters in the past day. You probably also aren't aware that he had been all over Splash magazine the past year, which the swimmer kids really seem to like. How in the world can any sane person say this doesn't hurt anyone? The message he is sending is loud and clear. All the Phelp's apologists are now saying the same thing they said after the DWI. At least you are consistent. Your impressionable youngsters concern is interesting and not without validity. However, you DO have an avatar featuring someone who is clearly inebriated to the point of falling down, while using the word "pimpy" in your sig line ("Pimp" presumably synonomous with "cool" - a usage that I loathe). Are these OK for impressionable youngsters to see and do because theyre legal? Yeah, it was stupid, and its going to cost him some money. He may be a little underdeveloped in the ways of the world - thats what happens when all you do is "eat, swim, sleep" for 5 years. I doubt it will happen again (not after his mom plants a foot in his ass). If it does, find a different role model for your kids - but dont watch them too closely.
