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?
So Phelps gets to keep his some of his most prized sponsors, eh? Lucky him.
Do you think if this were November 2004 and Phelps only had his six golds instead of "greatest olympian ever" title that most of his sponsors would still keep him after a picture like this? Was four years ago a completely different era, already? Food for thought.
Don't think it would have ever come up. I don't think Phelps was under the microscope as much then.
Some greedy, calculating so-and-so thought they could make money off this picture and probably has now. Doubt they could have made money in November of 2004 on this.
So, I doubt a picture like this would have surfaced then. If so, I doubt Speedo would have dropped him.
