Phelps tokin it up
 
Anyone else see this? Thought it was funny. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't try to strip his metals.

----, I bet he did it on purpose. I bet you he is freaking tired of training. He has already been to the top, has plenty of money. Sure he could probably go back in 4 years and win again, but he might work at it another 4 years and go back and find out there is antother genetic freak looking dude who can swim even faster. Poor dude has probably been swimming for hours a day since he was 6 or 7 yrs old.
Nobody would probably let him bail out now. So he said screw it. I know I sure the hell would.

Why, because he's human? Why does smoking pot make him an idiot?

I'm not quite sure how smoking pot makes him a worse person in this case.

I thought that was a picture from awhile ago or was it recent?

It was from a few days ago.

He needs to tell the press "I won 8 gold medals, and I smoke pot. Get the ---- over it"

It sucks that he will have to defend his charater and all the hard work hes done over something sooooo ------- trivial. Dipshits are gonna have a field day with this.

Yeah I just don't see what smoking pot has to do with how fast he can swim.

So he gets ripped while out of the pool and can still win gold metals. This man has my approval :6

Is that what retards are saying? LOL, I'd love to hear the argument that marijuana is boosting someone's athletic ability (besides Frisbee Golf... hippies love it).

I highly doubt he smoked while training. Even potheads know that will cut down on lung capacity. Regardless of the circumstances, whoever took that picture and let it leak is an -------.

The problem is that the fucker is a god dam American icon. when you have that kind of status, people look up to you...and while I personally might not have a problem with smoking weed, (though I don't do it) a person of his caliber needs to realize who he is and what he represents.

I live in ann arbor and am a little tired of seeing Felps on posters all over town like hes the man(guess he kinda is).I cant even eat breakfast at my favorite coney without this fuckers picture staring me down.

He represents that he can achieve great things and that he still has the capacity to enjoy his life. The only problem I have with what he did is that he apologized for his actions, rather than just admitting that he did it. In apologizing he under minds his own stance on what he feels is acceptable behavior and accepts a code of conduct that shows that puts him in the wrong. He should have never done that.

He may represent America while playing in the Olympics, but America represents individual freedom and individual achievements. He earned the medals through his own hard work and has no responsibility to the American people outside of wining those. We'd be asking him to sacrifice his own individual freedom to represent us, which would be hypocritical in itself.

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
WTF. So when was a pro (Olmpic) athliete not in the wrong for hittin the ---- out of a bong? You people act like he did nothing wrong. The mother fucker is a god dam 8 gold medal winner in the ------- olmpics, got busted for hitting a bong. What is not wrong with that. If thats the case, good ole mike vick is as innocent as can be. So is jose conceico and all of those other fucks who were doing speed and everything else. Who cares. They are pro athlietes...let them go.
I think its ------- rediculious that you fucks are even standing up for this douche bag.

jinxy 02-02-2009 03:19 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
He was smoking weed, not fighting dogs. The cases are not related and using that as an example makes your argument weaker. You need to argue why he's wrong for breaking a law that in his victories, he manages to prove is entirely arbitrary.

There's nothing unamerican about recreational drug use. He enjoys himself, and his freedom and he is responsible enough to handle his own business and be the best at it. There's not really anything more American than that. It proves that you can lend a good amount of freedom and responsibility to an individual, and they'll still have the ability to take care of themselves and possibly be the best at what they do.

SkunT 02-02-2009 03:28 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
The issue at hand is the fact the mother fucker is a god dam medal winning 'hero' olympic swimmer. He is a role model to probably thousands of kids/people all around the ------- world...and its ok for him to smoke weed? Geat real dude. So now the messege is "ok kids, go out...do great at swimming...if you happen to win, come back and hit the bong. its the American thing to do?" ::)

How is vicks case any different. Both are illegal. Him fighting dogs didnt hurt him in playing football at all. Nothing un- O0 about fighting some dogs...hell that O0 claimed it was 'in his culture' IIRC. Nothin unamerican about drug use? wtf. Since when and where in the USSA is it legal for recreational drug use?

Jorsher 02-02-2009 03:33 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
So terrible to see that it's possible for a person that smokes pot to be more successful than those that don't :6

I can see the "role model" side of things, but I still think it's bullshit that he's now a horrible person because he did something that some thing is an evil vice. If he's able to responsibly use a drug that doesn't harm anyone but himself, what's the big deal? If my kids smoked and were Olympic gold medalists, I wouldn't think poorly of them. If they smoked, got a college degree, and led a successful career, I wouldn't either.

It's sad that everyone is expected to be completely PC if they're ever in the media.

Nobody should have to change their lifestyle because kiddies mimic them instead of thinking for themselves.

McBoost 02-02-2009 03:35 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
The only problem I have is he cashed in on some endorsements. When you're the face of a company (or several in his case) you have a duty to maintain the image you sold.

He may be a role model to kids, but he's allowed to do whatever he wants. I don't have a problem with it, but then again I don't have a 10 year old with a Michael Phelps poster in his room. Meh.

Jorsher 02-02-2009 03:40 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
I have to say, I don't know too many kids that watch national news enough to even know he did this, or even understand what he did. If kids are following someone's example so closely that they're smoking because they saw Phelps doing it, than their parents are doing a horrible job.

I don't believe all this "well he's a role model for kids" BS. Personally, I never was interested in someone enough do what they do, but maybe that's because I try to decide what to do on my own instead of following everyone else...

what good does weed do to your body? those baseball players are taken stuff to enhance there bodys and get a slite advantage. last time i checked weed doesnt enhance anything. but hurt ur lungs n give you memory lose if you smoke your self stupied. so wouldnt that hurt him when he is trying to swim?

First you should explain why smoking weed makes someone a bad person, the reason I say this is because what if he was caught drinking a beer? you were the one posting how to brew homemade beer right? If so then in 1920 YOU would be considered a criminal, and its pretty easy to make a case as to why alcohol consumption is worse than pot, bla bla bla.

The other issue is that Mr. Phelps is no longer at the Olympics, its over, therefore his behavior and anything that he does now has no sort of value because he is no longer representing the USA, maybe if he was caught drugging and raping a 12 year old in between events I could see how that would tarnish the image of the USA.
Also the fact that he is a role model has nothing to do with his personal life, he is a role model because he is an olympic medalist, not because he is an outstanding individual, if kids that look up to him are to be devastated that their "hero" is a recreational drug user, then maybe their parents should re-examine their value system.

Micheal Vick was running a ------- dog fighting ring, where taking a hit of a bong is a "victimless crime", what he did was murder dozen of innocent animals and help further undermine the already terrible reputation of the American Staffordshire Terrier, and personally I think he should face a firing squad. Anyway the two cases are only similar in the fact that both people are involved in athletics, dog fighting is animal cruelty, smoking pot isn't.

Drinking beer, brewing your own beer...its all 100% legal.
Taking a hit from a ------- bong is illegal.

your comparing apples to oranges here.




McBoost 02-02-2009 04:27 PM

Considering half of Americans have smoked pot at least once in their life, I think most people are willing to look beyond the legality of the act.

We're not really. The only reason drinking is legal is because of the crime it created when it wasn't. If the mafia had never started, drinking would probably still be illegal.

J-MAN 02-02-2009 05:20 PM

Re: Phelps tokin it up
 
the funny thing is Obama admitted to smoking weed a few times when he was younger and we voted him president, and that nig cant even swim. i think if this guy can ---- up his lungs with taken some bong rips and still win 8 gold medals then the other athletes in the olympics really need to look at themselves and try and figure out how they got beat by a smoker lol.

A lot of people think pot should be illegal, except the ones who have smoked it.

eh, ---- you. nothing wrong with smoking weed. Its being decriminalized and its becopme fairly open. Its not illegal to smoke pot in all countries, you can legally have it in parts of the U.S. the only person that really takes a hit from the law when it comes to pot, isnt the kid with an 1/8th of weed or some middle aged man with a jay, its the ------ spics and nogs selling it by the pound and killing over it.
As far as Phelps hitting a bong, whoopty ------- doo. It isnt going to make him better/worse at what he does, unless he does it alot and his lungs may hate him. Making a big deal over nothing. :6 :y

After being busted and jailed for marijuana possession and resisting arrest in Nairobi, Kenya on Jan. 31, charges were quickly dropped against Barack Obama's half-brother George. "They took me from my home," he said. "I don't know why."

Police say Obama was rounded up with others who had marijuana. "Being found with people who are in possession of cannabis is a petty offense," an official stated.

Possession of any quantity of marijuana in Kenya can carry a life sentence, and those accused are denied bail.


probly wont hear another word about this one, or they will minimize the situation to look like he barely had any on him, oh and this nig didnt win 8 gold medals either

Life sentence for pot?

There are a few countries like that. Disgusts me.

I admit I probably wouldn't smoke it and risk a sentence like that.
