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

I think it was good of him to come out and admit it. Most celebrities either lie about it, or blame someone else.
Phelps taem picks up new sponsor???
Michael Phelps
It's been rough for Olympian Michael Phelps as of late after being photographed inhaling from a marijuana pipe. Potentially destroying his role model status, he has been suspended from competition and lost a Kellogg's sponsorship. Though it's not all that bad for Phelps' team as they have picked up Rollie's Smoke Shop as a new sponsor to try to exploit this new 'bad boy' image. (credit: GETTY IMAGES)
Im not really surpried that michael phelps did this. I'm sure bad stuff could come out about alot of swimmers but it just doesn't get exposed. I know some people who know a certain olympic swimmer that bought an entire shopping cart full of beer with a fake id back when he was in high school. Thats not really roll model worthy either.
I thought a long time before I decided to revive this thread, but in the end, this editoral is excellent. I don't know how much longer it will be up on this newspaper's site. Enjoy. Lainey

I missed the SNL when it came out. Well done. I love it : ]
I especially liked the line about when your kid asks if they can smoke Pot like Phelps, you say, "Yes after you win 12 gold medals for your country!"
The last line was THE best. I agree completely.

That is exactly what I told a friend of mine, regarding this video!

"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marihuana in private for personal use... Therefore, I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marihuana." - Jimmy Carter, U.S. President
"I inhaled frequently. That was the point." - Barack Obama, U.S. President
In the spirit of hard economic times, exemplified by a recent series of layoffs by a certain northwest aircraft company: if you take the Employment and the Income out of the BOEING company, then you are left with the BONG company with an already lined-up celebrity endorser...
