Blame it on Mary Jane..... |

It didn't take long. A guy at work (one of those dumb sports fan types) today was talking about Michael Phelps losing at the World Championships: "It was probably because he smokes weed."

1. He lost because he quit, if anything... |
|
He didn't start losing until after he was busted.

15. Yeah, but I couldn't care less about the opinions of such mental rejects. |
|
To quote Ebert on fans of the Transformers sequel, there's a point were an opinion strays off into error of fact.

5. Yes, yesss the evil weed... |

Think nothing about the fact that the suit the winner was wearing will be banned from future competition because it is seen as an illegal enhancement. Think nothing of the winner himself attributing the win to the suit. It was because a picture, several months ago showed Phelps with a bong at a party and he admitted to smoking pot. Never mind that he is the most decorated swimmer ever. That he cannot win every race is a testament to how destructive pot is...:sarcasm:
Your work mate is a tool.

11. Phelps came in 2 seconds behind a German wearing a special suit. |
|
Almost sounds like the beginning of a bad joke. Anyway, I think they said that type of suit will not be allowed next year.
