Yaaawn

Maybe I am morally corrupt.... but why are people so shocked to learn that a 23 year old Michael Phelps went to a college party and smoked some weed? The party was after the Olympics while he was taking a break from training. He never tested positive for banned substances and this case doesn't fall under any doping rules. Do I smoke weed? No. Have I ever? No. But honestly, it isn't worth losing an endorsement over it. Who cares?

You know, I have mixed feelings on the topic. I feel bad that celebs have little privacy, everyone makes mistakes and they shouldn't be aired out in public. But I also strongly feel that the youth of today need better role models. It's one thing if someone over the age of 21 drank a little much, but quite another if something illegal is being done and needs righting.

I absolutely agree with you. I'm the say way - I've never tried marijuana or any other kind of drugs, but never understood what the big deal was with marijuana? I agree with the previous commenter that in general we do need better role models for young people, but my opinion of Michael Phelps has not changed as a result of finding this out.
