oh michael...

you've all probably heard the news about michael phelps and his less than brilliant decision that has made headlines world wide...

i was bummed to hear the news, but sadly, not really surprised. we so quickly put people with athletic greatness or other talents on to a pedestal, elevating them above the rest of world...forgetting that they're still real people who make mistakes...then as quickly as we have exalted them, we bash them...

i read something written about the incident that really got me thinking...if you get a second, check out what cj mahaney had to say here! it definitely changed my thoughts on the situation...
