Yet another one of the world’s great icons have fallen to the temptation of bad habits. However , let us not be too quick to judge them as they are human like anyone of us and are prone to mistakes. Perhaps at times , we set too high a standard for these icons that we expect them to make no mistakes at all. What is admirable about Phelps however , is that he was brave enough to admit his mistakes and accept the judgement thrown at him. Hats off to him for that.
Through all this , I believe Phelps has learned a lesson and has regretted his actions. So let us forget the negative and look towards the positive. Let us not forget the medals won and records Phelps broke in the pool. I think his many achievements should outshine his mistake.
