Michael Phelps Options

[Robert]

I hope there is a backlash to the way this whole situation has been handled.
I don't know Phelps, I haven't followed his career, for that matter I didn't even watch the Olympics.
What I do know is most people would die before they would go through the training involved to be a professional athlete. It just makes me sick to think about some fat-ass sitting in his lazy-boy passing judgment over this kid.

i agree ,this day an age to make a big stink over a misdemeanor (wreckless driving carries a bigger fine) is ridiculous. At the same time ,i do think he acted in an irresponsible manor because he knows no matter what he does hes going to be under a microscope.

I'm sure he smokes, but if he actually smoked in that instance you know there wuld be pics of him blowing out a huge lungfull of air. I think he was thinking he'd just be funny, but when caught knew he couldn't pass a test. So the best way to to deal is to not deal directly. He never (as far as I know) admitted to smoking or anything else.
Would anyone really believe him if he said, "some college kid told me to put this bong to my lips like I'm taking a hit"?
Of course not. Saying that, he probably can't deny it because he smokes and in one of the most unfair parts of life marijuana stays in your system longer than any other drug. He could do coke but a week later if tested you wouldn't know it. Has he smoked pot? Well, we'd know a month later.
I'd love to think he's a great guy, but I'm wondering about his bad karma. Most people deserve the bad karma they get. Does he deserve it?
