Phelps Smoked Pot. So What?

I've been meaning to weigh in on this bullshit - but anything I have to say has been said better by a friend - and famous Macalester soccer announcer - Seth Benziger who pointed me at this article which discusses the hypocrisy of Kellogg's

The leader of one of the biggest groups, the Marijuana Policy Project, called Kellogg's action "hypocritical and disgusting," and said he'd never seen his membership so angry, with more than 2,300 of them signing an online petition.

"Kellogg's had no problem signing up Phelps when he had a conviction for drunk driving, an illegal act that could actually have killed someone," said Rob Kampia, the group's executive director. "To drop him for choosing to relax with a substance that's safer than beer is an outrage, and it sends a dangerous message to young people."

Seth also noted that many seem to get angrier when athletes use recreational drugs versus those that give them an illegal advantage in their business.
