Culture: Protip: If you’re an Olympic runner, skip the male-enlargement drugs

  • Dear LaShawn Merritt: You’re an idiot. The pride of Portsmouth, the king of the 2008 Olympic track and field events, Merritt let all of this go because he used this sketchy penis-enhancement drug called ExtenZe. ExtenZe, by the way, is not the same as Enzyte, but does contain some substances banned the the International Olympic Committee. So now Merritt is banned for two years. What the heck, dude? You ruined your life over magic beans? source

  • Michael Phelps • On the three-month suspension from competition that USA Swimming gave him last night. Phelps has had a bit of a PR nightmare on his hands after he was caught smoking a bong in a photo. Hopefully he doesn’t lose any more sponsors. • source
