Phelps suspension for a picture of bong inhale...
Any tokers in the house? JK
But don't you think they're taking this a little too seriously? A "picture" of Phelps smoking marijuana gets him suspended for 3 months? One of the most harmless drugs to the human body, behind alcohol, and even some over the counter pain-killers? I think the anti-marijuana lobbyists got excited enough over this to blow their loads, but I do kinda understand the image issue with the sponsors.

I love that the police department where the photo was taken issued a statement saying they were "considering pressing charges."
Yeah, for what?

Phelps should have said: Yes, I had cannabis, and there is nothing wrong in that. Wake up and smell the BULLSHIT. Shove a finger in your mouths and puke out the propaganda you were fed by the feds!

You can smoke pot and still win golds at the Olympics. This is only a "bad message to send out" if you are someone who wants the world to think this isn't true.

He may have broken the record for most gold medals ever won at the Olympics, but if he wasn't so high all the time, he would have broken it more.

Still, Phelps was stupid. I mean, a bong? Smoke is bad for the lungs. With all those gold medals, you'd assume the guy could afford a vaporizer!
