He's a real mama's boy, too, At 32 years of age!

There are 600+ US Olympians there, and these 4 a-holes are sucking up all the oxygen. Smearing both the Brazilian hosts and the US Olympic teams. What a travesty.
So are they all out of Brazil now? The headline says so, but I don’t see it in the article.
Embarrassing but not unheard of from pampered American athletes of many sports.........
There’s people robbing, and burning gas stations here in the US. Where’s the outcry? Where’s the frontpage headlines?
Watch for the “ugly american” meme to make a strong comeback.
And they’ll find a way to pin it on Trump too.
I am going to wait until the passports are returned and they are back home.
I would say what needed to be said to get my passport back and head back home unless the country/island was Switzerland or Bali.
I am not saying you are wrong.... : )
This was probably a $50 million error in judgement. No Nike deal, no Wheaties box for him.
ha ha..... he won’t be suffering..... unless they’re into that sort of thing.....

She’s probably long gone when the endorsement $$ dries up and the fancy cars get repoed.
NBC loves to slam America anyway it can.
So do the FReepers here. Bogus charges from turd country. Attacking successful athletes for their priviledge. Sound like The Demoncrats to me.
These despicable punks should have to turn their medals in and be banned from any professional or Olympic sorts events for life.
This is the WRONG way to act when visiting any foreign country for any reason. Get drunk and destroy a restroom in a local business then lie about it.
Any time an American is in another country they are a single example of the entire country, in the eyes of the locals. Everything you do will be accredited to all of us.
They need to read the news more often. The USOC is falling down on the job training.
Video shows a gun was put to someones head inside the car. They get out of the car and are reaching for their wallets. They are forced to lay down on the ground
Yes the tape shows a bathroom door falling down. But come on . . . look at all the doors. water and mildew damaged, barely hanging up on their hinges. Who is to say it did not fall down from being previously damaged.
They did pay something from their wallets. So come on . . . everything here is not what it seems on both sides.
Yeah, I would and have said in the past anything they want me to say to get out of the country
Well .. Now I understand why Lochte and his roommate were having little tiffs all the time .. and why Lochte’s arrogance caused him to damage his reputation even more.
So, I’m guessing Lochte lied to his mommy to cover up the loss of money he had to pay the owner of the gas station, after he and his drunken buddies trashed the bathroom.
He could have ended this trip on a high note .. but instead he threw away his reputation .. sad.
