Yea, i saw that and laugh. It sad because he may be black ball for this. Not by the committe but the public.
The public in general will probably forgive him, but I can't see many CEOs wanting to keep him on as a product spokesman... I bet he loses most or all of his sponsorship deals.
Serves him right... When people give you millions of dollars to represent their companies, you damn well better behave yourself. Idiot.
The only good thing about this is that the olympic folks probably won't ban him for using performance reducing drugs. He'll get a total rep for being a stoner and that will follow him for the rest of his swimming career, but I doubt he'll get banned from the sport. Losing the sponsors and product endorsement money will be more than enough punishment.
The really dumb thing is that this is his second brush with stupid teenager tricks. The first one was underage DUI, and he was pretty much forgiven for that one. I don't think he'll get a third chance... If I was spending marketing bucks, I wouldn't give any to him. I can just see the competition's ads...
Wear nike, not speedo. Our athletes aren't stoners (with big-ear silouhette of a head). Just do it.
