Michael Phelps - Olympic Toker

So does anybody else have any thoughts on the Phelps Smoking weed situation?

I do!

First of all I do want to say that before the Beijing Olympics (after Athens), when he was arrested for drunk driving, that was seriously uncool. Nobody should be that irresponsible regardless of age, fame or anything for that matter.

As for the pot, I don't think he is being a great role model for the kids that love him. Being in the position of being a world record holder and Olympic champion, comes with responsibility and you know, maybe he shouldn't have let anybody take his picture! Discretion can be very important when any little thing you do, has the potential to become world news.

On the other hand I can't stop thinking about how his superhuman lung capacity must effect his bong toking abilities:P Seriously though, I have no problem with it, he is 23 and probably having the best time of his life.

Bottom line - Easy on the picture evidence Phelps!
