Michael Phelps, an eight time gold winner at the Beijing Olympics is being suspended by USA Swimming for three months after the British tabloid News of the World published his photo smoking from a marijuana pipe. The photo was taken during a house party in Columbia, South Carolina in November during an extended break from training. His financial support from USA Swimming was also cut-off for three months. Kellogg's also announced that it is not renewing its contract with Phelps after the photo came out saying that his “behavior is not consistent with the image of Kellogg.” Michael has accepted the decision of the governing body and has acknowledged the regrettable behavior and bad judgement.credit: newsoftheworld.com.uk/wcbs880.com/fanhouse.com
