Even olympic athletes do it...

Ok I dont know about you, but its about time MJ became legal, just my opinion. I mean seriously EVERYBODY does it, including olympic athletes! Heres the sad story:


Photobucket


Michael Phelps’ day grew lousier by the hour on Thursday.

First he lost a major sponsor, then he got suspended from competition for three months by USA Swimming for the latest fallout from a photo that showed him inhaling from a marijuana pipe.

The sport’s national governing body also cut off its financial support to Phelps for the same three-month period, effective immediately.

“This is not a situation where any anti-doping rule was violated, but we decided to send a strong message to Michael because he disappointed so many people, particularly the hundreds of thousands of USA Swimming member kids who look up to him as a role model and a hero,” the Colorado Springs-based federation said in a statement.

Earlier Thursday, cereal and snack maker Kellogg Co. announced it wouldn’t renew its sponsorship contract with Phelps, saying his behavior is “not consistent with the image of Kellogg.” The swimmer appeared on the company’s cereal boxes after his Olympic triumph.
