This might just be me but I just don't feel like it's that big a deal. I know he's supposed to be a role model now, but if you take away the Michael Phelps part of it he's just another 23 year old that had a picture taken of him hitting a bong.

I personally don't think the pot-smoking is a big deal, but whatever.

I agree
They're saying it's because he's a role model for little kids...if they hadn't made this one picture public, no one would have known....

This had me rolling laughing. I can't stand this dude (but then I think the Olympics is a giant waste of money and resources in general). When you're making that much money for something that you really don't ever have to do again (unlike pro sports stars with endorsements) you should have enough of a brain in your head to not hang out with idiots and/or avoid doing illegal things.

He should be a role model for Marion Jones.

The Richland County Sheriff is all about getting drugs off the street. It will be something if he finds out that the bong was taking in Lexington County. Ha! Like USC students only live in Richland County.

He'll pay a fine, do the obligatory softball interview with Matt Lauer (complete with serious facial expressions and the requisite repeat apology), and come out of it just fine.
