    His sponsors have more or less said that they're sad it happened but it won't affect him much because he apologized, realizes what he did wasn't the most responsible thing, etc. I'm sure they were seething behind the scenes.

    His behavior has been in the gossip blogs for a while now, I'm surprised nothing else has surfaced that could damage his career because it easily could - he parties pretty hard with the skankiest women I've ever seen, you know he's doing worse than pot. But, he's America's Olympic hero, something tells me they're going to cut him a lot of slack.

    I think he does what a lot of people do in private, but being a public person, the media leeches always have their cameras rolling.

    I think he is risking his reputation, not to mention millions of dollars in endorsement revenue.

    Too bad he can't have a private life.
