No More Kelloggs for Michael Phelps!

(Note: Inflated monkey does not condone standing next to Michael Phelps, a bong, and a box of Frosted Flakes and then having it all photographed.)

Can't we just leave Michael Phelps alone?!? Oy vey, it seems as if the Olympic gold medal hero, swimmer-extraordinaire was caught engaging in some wild party animal fun in South Carolina! Phelps was photographed taking a hit from the bong, and now it's been the talk of the town, actually the entire world! It resulted in public outcry, a 3 month suspension from his favorite sport (swimming not smoking), and possible criminal charges in SC!

And what's worst in the deal is that one of company's Phelps sponsored, Kelloggs, has dropped him! What were they thinking?! Don't they know that smoking weed leads to the munchies and they want their product gobbled up by the boxful? Kelloggs reconsider your marketing strategy...

Folks, this monkey says to party responsibly, but the fact that one college/paparazzi photo of an Olympic hero causes this much uproar is ridiculous...Let's start a petition to let Michael Phelps have one bad moment, seeing as a commentor on a news show this AM made a great point: our last few presidents admitted to drug use, yet they were put in charge of our country!

NY Times seems to believe suspending Mr. Phelps was wrong too!
