People like Michael Phelps give people a bad name to people who work hard and make a name for themselves. I think he should realize that everything he does will be held with a very high standard. Many people look at him as a role model he should know that anything he does will probably be blown out of proportion. So to do something illegal that’s just putting the bullet in the barrel.
Why do people care? Probably because they hold celebrities to a higher level. I mean how do gossip magazines sell? I think it is because people like to be nosey and know everything about everyone.
I think people should care that he pulled something like this. It gives a bad name to people who work hard. He shows us that as fast as you can become famous just as fast your title can be taken away with another name. As if we couldn’t see this coming with his DUI then he goes and does something stupid like this. How many strikes does he get where he can still gain respect? I think he has shown that he doesn’t want respect. He acts as if he can get away with anything. What next…getting away with murder? I see him as the next O. J. Simpson. I am not trying to say that he will be accused of committing murder. I think he will tarnish his name. And in 30 years from now I see his name only coming up in the conversation by saying he was great but then he let us down. You have let down a lot of people down. As the saying goes fool us once shame on you (DUI) fool us twice (bong hits) shame on us.
