Im just thinking who doesnt have a son who has done something stupid like this.I doubt ones whose sons compete in the Olympics do. I believe they ban substances, including hallucinogens / drugs. Cannabis would fit the bill, IIRC.

Not to defend him, but I'm interested in why you can't stand him?

I have watched him on many talk shows and he is arrogant and full of himself IMHO.

I totally understand that. He just seemed like a stupid kid that knew he made a bad move:
Michael ended up getting a little paranoid, though, because before too long he looked like he was nervous and ran out of the place.

Phelps is really in the news these days. He is dating a former stripper named Caroline Pal - here pictured with her friend Paris Hilton. Not sure who Caroline Pal is, but the girl on the right is Kim Kardashian. If not, it's damn sure her doppleganger.

Before anyone blasts Phelps for taking a bong hit, remember Sarah Palin admitted to smoking pot in the past.

I won't argue with your assessment, I just know what he went through to accomplish what he did over the last 10 years and it's a shame to see him throw it all away.

I can’t argue with that. I never put him down about his accomplishments just what he does outside the swimming pool.

Dont they also use hair to test for drugs?
Don't swimmers shave all their body hair? (Or they can, anyway.)
I don't see what the big deal is here. Nobody ever said pot increased athletic performance and that's all the olympic committee should care about, getting unfair chemical advantage.
Regularly filling your lungs with cannabis smoke isn't going to give any athlete unfair advantage of any kind.

Most swimmers don’t shave their heads, that’s one of the reasons why they use caps.

Thats not Mike Phelps. I'm not convinced that it is him, but, what makes you say that it isn't him?

That is NOT a bong!!! One of the girls at the party found a penis enlarger in the guy who was having the partys closet. Michael started playing it like it was a tuba. We were all falling on the floor from laughing so hard. Mike is a really funny guy... You should have been there!!!

Phelp’s mother was a teacher. Most teachers who had Phelps told his mother the same thing, her son wouldnt amount to much. Phelp’s Mom never said too much to them as she didnt want to make waves etc.

I’m aware that he had a hard time concentrating in school.

Yeah but you CAN shave your head. Plenty of non-swimmers shave their heads. You can just do it and either reference the fact that you’re a swimmer or not when asked (if asked) why you shaved your head.
