Michael Phelps busted on Camera Smoking Pot!

[240 is Back]

Funny thing is, it looks nothing like him. I call BS.

the mag will have proof of his people trying to cover up the story.  that may help.

Or, the IOC may just test him.  A headline like this - they have to act. He's probably running every cleanser known to man at the moment, if it is him.

Phelps is represented by marketing giant Octagon, which works with huge brands such as Mastercard and HSBC. They admitted proven cannabis use would be “a major taint” on Phelps’ character.


Spokesman Clifford Bloxham offered us an extraordinary deal not to publish our story, saying Phelps would become our columnist for three years, host events and get his sponsors to advertise with us.


In return, he asked that we kill Phelps’ bong picture. Bloxham said: “It’s seeing if something potentially very negative for Michael could turn into something very positive for the News of the World.”

He's a young and very successful guy with what seems to be a good head on his shoulders. Who cares if he smokes pot now and again?

I agree %100.  If he had just finishrd off a bottle og grey goose, No one would say nothin.
None the less, his goal of the most medals he was striving for in 2012 is OOOOOOVER!

[pumpster]

It's crazy that this is a big deal, long overdue to legalize or at least to downplay the significance.

Besides which, i think they'd have to prove that the pipe contained something illegal. As far as testing him, it's already been 3 months, they'd have to use the more expensive hair sample test to find anything.

Marijuana is a gateway drug.

Marijuana is a gateway drug.

to EPO and GH?

He obviously learned from his DUI.   

[tweeter]

That's not Michael Phelps... Some magazine wanting to sell more issues because of the bad economy... Don't read too much into this.

I guess that's why he has already admitted it was him to ESPN

TAMPA, Fla. -- Olympic great Michael Phelps has acknowledged "regrettable" behavior and "bad judgment" after a photo in a British newspaper showed him smoking marijuana.

In a statement released to The Associated Press, the swimmer who won a record eight gold medals at the Beijing Games conceded the authenticity of the exclusive photo published Sunday by the tabloid News of the World.

Phelps said: "I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment. I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

An accompanying story in the tabloid said the photo was from a Nov. 6 party in South Carolina, a little more than a month after Phelps wrapped up his record haul in Beijing.

Phelps was charged with driving under the influence in Maryland in 2004, when he was 19. He was sentenced to 18 months probation and fined $250.

It's 2009 in America, everybody uses drugs. Weed, roids, toot, Teena, smack, Zanax, Vicodin, X, booze, LSD, uppers, downers, all-arounders. Nobody cares.

[Awesomo]

He is an idiot. While we can debate forever whether weed should be legal or not, the fact is he has cost himself millions in endorsements. He had a squeaky clean all american image and was making millions off it, now that goofy big eared bitch will be gone from our memories in year. BTW i still like him more as an athlete from a sport i could care less about than Shaun White.

[TrueGrit]

Bay, what are his secrets? You really shouldn't make comments like that if you've no intention of elaborating.

[Wiggs]

It's just a little pot...

With that said when you are what Phelps is, you gotta watch yourself.

[Mons Venus]

De La Hoya dresses in womens fishnets,, Phelps smokes weed. Who really cares?

Or just a little Dbol.. These guys need to be whiter than white.

  Oh I see. Since Phelps is a WHITE BOY, he has to be careful, but if he was a SOUL BROTHER he could just party like it's 1999. Now I understand.

LMAO

Of course it's him, he fucking admitted to it. Man, you're thick headed.

[Canadian_Muscle]

At the minimum, someone would take a pic of him and put it on facebook and everyone would see it... not a good choice.

On the otherhand, I couldn't give two shits about him smoking weed... Arnold smoked it and he's governor. Let the guy swim in the pool in 2012!

[Doug_Steele]

maybe he needs it to help him eat the 12K calories he claims to eat.

I amnot sure if it is 12k calories a day but I KNOW THAT HE EATS ALOT OF SHIT! He goes to Michigan and i know his ex-g/f and she said that he was just a big goofy guy.

[tommywishbone]

Nobody eats 12,000 calories a day. Not even close.

[peruke]

maybe he needs it to help him eat the 12K calories he claims to eat.

"That would be a different defense"!!!  

[Doug_Steele]

Nobody eats 12,000 calories a day. Not even close.

True. His ex-g/f who was on Um's Swim team said that he was always eating and he had a very shitty diet. I would not doubt that he would smoke pot while at Michigan. I think Manningham hooked him up through Santinio Holmes.

[Hurricane Beef !]

He has bigger secrets than smoking pot. 

That aint no secret.
