Phelps is a Dope
Quote | Reply
Would you believe that he is this stupid to do this? Sucking on a bong may have cost him millions. What a bong head if it's true.

Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps was captured on film smoking marijuana at a college party last fall, new published reports said Saturday night. (See photo here)
The 23-year-old swimming phenom, who won an amazing eight gold medals at last year's Olympic Games in Beijing, was caught smoking a marijuana pipe at a University of South Carolina party in early November, according to Star magazine and Britain's News of the World.
Phelps was in town to a see a sorority girl he was dating, but spent the entire weekend getting stoned every night, throwing down beers and smoking pot, the magazines said.
"At one point someone asked him if he wanted to smoke some weed," a source told Star. "Michael didn't hesitate and headed to a small back room, where he was immediately handed a big red bong."
Phelps couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

I don't necessarilly believe the above story, but it is making news headlines around the world.

The gossip tabloids in the UK are very big over there. Never bought one of the gossip tabloids in the 2 years was in the UK and couldn't be bothered reading past the front page headlines. Their tabloids aren't funny and don't know why anyone reads them.

It is owned by Rupert Murdoch's news corp, so hope someone sues the owners of the paper. The photographer wouldn't have got much for it, so would be interested to know who that person was. they should publish the photographers name, so people could shame them also.

Are there more pics than just this one? It's not exactly clear from that shot that it's him.

He probably thought it was an expand-a-lung:)

Even if it is true WOW...

college kid smokes weed, that is big news ;-)

[not sure if one ;-) fully indicates the level of sarcasm that I intended]

considering our current and former pres admitted doing coke prior to the election I am not too sure that an allegation that he smoked weed at a frat party will matter much to anyone.

Doesn't surprise me at all. I've heard he's been hanging out in Vegas a lot going nuts. There has been some footage of him doing some stupid things there and I could see his career coming to an end unless he got away from some the people he's been hanging with.

Hell of a way to be remembered.

The level of his side burns are cut around the same area near the bottom of the ear. Look at the watches. Phelps is still the man.

You're getting the tense wrong. He LOOKED like that. Probably not anymore, or at least, not for long.

Spouse had a look at the pictures and said it's definitely not Phelps. Stoner boy has a narrower nose with smaller nostrils and has rounder tops of his ears while Phelps' ears are more pointy.

Ah, not being 22 (or whatever) and most importantly not swimming like 5 miles a DAY!

In his professional life: Phelps trained hard and proved himself on an international level time and time over again. Perhaps people fail to realize he is only a kid, and kids deserve to be kids, no matter how many Golds they hang over their mantle place.

Being an athlete does not necessarily make one a genius. By the amount of time he spent in the pool, I would guess his academics skills might be be lacking. In fact, didn't he get arrested for DWI back in 2004? He seems to have survived that social faux paux.

Let me get this straight. He smoked a little pot, and.......? Heaven forbid he had a couple beers too. Are you serious? Even if the picture is him, who cares. He just frickin won 8 Gold Medals. Thank goodness he's a regular 22 year old college kid.

You people on this forum condemming him need to chill out. He's not shooting heroin. I swam in college with olympic medalists and former world record holders that did much worse.

Let's all just relax.

He wouldn't be the first swimmer to party hard and still swim fast.

Second that here. First, I am not 100% persuaded that his him in the photo, but even if it is I think the problem is not him but people who expect too much from a young man who has spent the better part of his life submerged in chlorinated water. What may be the source of conflict for him is whether he wants to be a young adult focused entirely on swimming (who may want to party in his off-season) OR he wants to become a corporate spokesman and product pusher. I think it's impossible for him to be both, so go ahead and party a little while you can but don't expect corporations (in a tough economy) to sign on. If that's his choice, so be it, he doesn't owe you, me or anyone else anything. He may have an obligation to his employers that he is falling short on here.

"Even if the picture is him, who cares."

Probably any sponsors that don't want to be associated with illegal drug use or parents of kids who look up to Phelps.

Just a guess.

"I swam in college with olympic medalists and former world record holders that did much worse."

Must be ok then, huh?
