So after collecting 22 Olympic medals- 18 of them Gold you’d think a guy would have had enough but not Michael Phelps. No Phelps the boy wonder from U of M decided it was time to come out of retirement and then he decided it was time to swat the pipe and guzzle the booze… and then…well of course drive the car.

Well as a result Phelps will be sitting on the sidelines and not competing for new medals. On September 30, Phelps was pulled over in Baltimore, arrested for driving under the influence and driving at an excessive speed. It was his second DUI charge in 10 years.

He has been suspended for six months by USA Swimming for violating the code of conduct. Phelps will not be able to compete in USA Swimming-sanctioned events and will forfeit funding from USA Swimming until April 6, 2015.

In the meantime Phelps can work on perfecting his freehand blunt roll. Just sayin.
