S2 <Phelps, who won a record eight gold medals at this summer's Olympics in Beijing, acknowledged "regrettable" behavior and "bad judgment" after the photo appeared Sunday in the British tabloid News of the World.> Here's the subtitle to the PR-speak "Yeah I had a little weed...just because I won 8 gold medals doesn't mean I'm not like most 20 year olders. Having a little weed relaxes me and it's fun....and, unlike a lot of booze which ruins my training regimen and dehydrates me, I get a great night's sleep after burning a fat one and am ready to go in the morning. It also doesn't seem to effect my wind. In the future, I'll be a little smarter and only smoke with my friends. I hope my advertisers have a realistic view of me...I do like the money, have worked hard for it, and appreciate my situation....I'm a lucky guy...and I'm human" Altair19
