Originally posted by kirksey957Seeing as his pot use would be considered detrimental to their product sales by his sponsors, then that's exactly what they're worrying about.
His endorsement sponsors should care more for the survival of their products and unemployment rather than his pot use.

It's not a big deal to me or you, but you can bet it's a big deal to his endorsement sponsors.

only because the US gave him a 3 month ban even though he didn't break any doping rules.
Edit: It's not a total loss for Phelps. High Times magazine will probably hand him a deal. 🙂

Originally posted by Sam The ShamSorry if I was ambiguous. I meant that the makers of Wheaties would care about Phelps toking up regardless of any ban the US sport federation put on him. Poor wording on my part.

I hear that Phelps, with his enormous lung capacity, can bong an entire Blunt with one inhale and hold it for 5 minutes without his head exploding. Indeed, this is how he trains for his meets and it should not be allowed. He never shares.
