Michael Phelps: 18 months probation; we used to be, like, more prouder

Since Phelps' name keeps on popping up here from an old post I'll update the news

I always read the title - Michael Phelps Makes Us Proud - as sarcastic, an in relation to his drunken driving charge. Turn out no.

Anyways - he's been given 18-months probation, must speak out about underage drinking and go back to being the model Mormon citizen that he is.


Do u think he likes thongs or boxers for christmas? maybe just stick with the trunks that he is wearin. I saw his BUtt CRack!! ITs SOo HOT!!

***
Michael, I LOOOOOOVE YOU!!:) PLEASE MARRY ME!!! I LOVE YOU! yOU R gOrEgOuS & SOOOOOOOOOO hott!! I wish i could b as good as a swimmer as you. Bye the way Ur mY boyfriend!! i love michael! Write back i'll give you a $10000000000000000000000000000000000000 if you do!!!! I LOOOOOOVE YOU MICHAEL!! PLEASE WRITE BACK!! love ya ~Lisa~

(And "Michael" replies.)

Lisa, Go away. Come back when you're old
enough to buy beers and to stretch your
ankles behind your ears.

Can't beat the, ahem, 500, comments at that post, wishing he'd swim in their pool for $25. Maybe he'll break probation, get drunk and fall down for $50 :)
