Michael Phelps: Olympic Beer Pong Champ?
Currently, the most important man in America is not Barack Obama, John McCain or Spencer Pratt - it is Michael Phelps, the beefy Olympic swimmer with giant ears that rival only his shoulder muscles in size. The entire country has tuned in to watch him pocket gold medals in Beijing, and his talent is obviously undeniable. Not to mention, he’s kinda hot in that attainable famous dude, sorta way. But is he also a pro at hurling ping pong balls into cups of keg beer? We came across this pic on a blog today that supposedly captures Phelps getting ready to conquer a serious round of beer pong. Not that he’s not allowed - the dude is 23-years old, and he already has a DUI under his belt that resulted in 18 months probation when he was 19-years old. It’s nice to know that Phelps may be involved in something even wilder than shaving all his body hair.
The pic has since been taken down, but we got it above. Does that look like the gold medal champ to you?

Sure it looks like him, but whats the big deal? Do you all expect him to be in a pool 24/7? Why is it that whenever there is a possitive role model, someone always wants to find there flaws?

Lola: are you serious?! So what if he had a DUI? he was underage, and driving drunk. its awful that a lot of people do it and he shouldn’t be one of them! So what if take a quick shot at his ears? obviously he’s amazingly talented, so thats honestly the only mean thing we can say about him. so relax.

You should probably post a better picture like Mr. Phelps actually looking at the camera before accusing him of such acusations! Phelps is an Olympic Legend and there is no need to tarnish his image!

a 23 year old kid playing beer pong!!!! Oh no, what is the world coming to….the travesty!!!
Strip him of all his medals!!!! He just doesn’t deserve them. From now on…all U.S. olympians must have been born and raised in Utah.

That’s clearly not Michael. That beer-ponger is way too scrawny. Not even close.
It looks more like Jim from The Office.

@LOLA: Oh, we’re just supposed to forgive people who drive drunkenly and endanger the lives of others just ’cause it “happens to a lot of people”?Getting a DUI at 19 years old or at any age is shameful and never acceptable. Your comment disgusts me….
