IOC backs Phelps over pot pipe
So Phelps gets busted for smoking pot but IOC comes out and bails him. But I don’t see why this is such a big deal. The dude’s 23, a grown man, and can do whatever he wants to do when he’s not competing.
The dope test is only valid before and after the competition. During the off-season a man can do whatever he wants to do, and it’s nobody’s business.
