Will Michael Phelps be stripped of Gold Medals for alleged pot smoking? The International Olympics Committee had to ask themselves that question this week when Michael Phelps admitted publicly that he engaged in the illegal activity of smoking pot! After being caught on film doing bong hits Michael Phelps had recently apologized to the International Olympics Committee and it appears the Olympic Committee has accepted Michael Phelps apology, Michael stated it was immature and he had used "bad judgment".
Michael Phelps is the most decorated Olympic swimmer in history and it appears that he will escape any prosecution by the International Olympics Committee. Readers of a popular news source were asked to comment on the Phelps pot smoking incident and here is what they had to say... - "Who cares? He is just a swimmer people, and it's just weed."
- "Well, If Michael does lose his corporate sponsors, all is not lost. I'm sure Willie Nelson would be happy to take over."
- "Well, this helps explain those humongous breakfasts of chocolate chip pancakes, numerous eggs, bacon, etc."
- "If I was a sponsor I would drop him like a bad habit (no pun intended). He did not only exercise poor judgment but he did something illegal. Poor judgment is one thing but when it is a criminal offense then that crosses the line. He needs to pay for his mistake."
Michael Phelps is now 23 years old and is no stranger to illegal activities, back in 2004 after the Summer Olympics Phelps was arrested and charged with DUI a charge which he pleaded to a driving while impaired charge.
