Michael "Don't Look At The Face" Phelps continues to kowtow, telling reporters after swimming practice o Tuesday about the whole bog pic controversy that "It's obviously bad judgment and it's something I'm not proud of at all. I will say that with the mistakes that I've made in my life, I've learned from them. Every one of them. And I've become a better person. That's what I plan to do from here."

In his first interview since the bong picture surfaced, Phelps denied being a regular user and added, "This was stupid, and I know this won't happen again."

Good thinking, since the scandal has earned him some unwanted attention, from paparazzi parades to early morning pranksters with megaphones outside his bedroom window.

Now time to to get back to practice and go for the green gold!

It's back to the pool for Michael Phelps!

The Golden Boy was snapped at a Baltimore natatorium on Tuesday, his first appearance since his infamous bong photo surfaced in the tabloids.

Phelps has already made his apologies, but while his sponsors and even the Olympics are still down with him, a South Carolina law enforcement official is threatening to press charges.

Dude, take a hit!

Fellow Olympic swimmer Mark Spitz, whose gold medal record Phelps broke, said, "As strictly a fan, I feel badly for Michael and the situation he has put himself in. I think no one would wish this on anyone, especially the person that gave us a summer like no other in 2008."

Don't fuck up again, Phelps!

Now….

Time to lose that beer belly!

So we all know that Michael "Don't-Look-At-The-Face" Phelps got caught smoking the Mary Jane. He has since said he was sorry for it.

And while there was some concern over the future of Phelps' endorsements and ability to compete in the 2012 Olympics, it looks like things will more or less be okay, even if his dignity is left a little bruised.

At least when it comes to Speedo and Omega.

Phelps sponsor Speedo released a statement saying, "In light of Michael Phelps' statement yesterday, Speedo would like to make it clear that it does not condone such behavior and we know that Michael truly regrets his actions. Michael Phelps is a valued member of the Speedo team and a great champion. We will do all that we can to support him and his family."

And the luxury Swiss watchmaker released a statement saying, "The current story in the press involves Michael Phelps' private life and is, as far as Omega is concerned, a nonissue."

As far as the Olympics are concerned, under World Anti-Doping Agency rules, Phelps is held to their standards only during competition. The International Olympic Committee said, "Michael Phelps is a great Olympic champion. He apologized for his inappropriate behavior. We have no reason to doubt his sincerity and his commitment to continue to act as a role model."

What Phelps really needs to do is reconsider who his friends (and his enemies) are!

Michael Phelps issued a carefully worded statement in response to the picture that was published this weekend of the Golden Boy smoking what is alleged to be pot from a bong:

"I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment. I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

Wonder what the future will hold!

Will he get dropped from his big $$$ endorsement deals?

Will the Olympics people bar him from competing in 2012?

Could there be anything but marijuana in there????

Unlikely!

We're sure Michael Phelps is not having a Chico's kind of Super Bowl day!

The UK's News of the World scored a picture of Olympics poster child Michael Phelps taking a big bong hit of what is assumed to be marijuana.

The tabloid always get their hands on crazy, juicy stuff!

The photo of Phelps supposedly getting high was snapped at a University of South Carolina party back in early November.

He was apparently visiting a university girl he was 'secretly' seeing.

We thought he was with that Vegas cocktail ho in November!

Play on, player!

One of the partygoers told the tabloid:

"You could tell Michael had smoked before. He grabbed the bong and a lighter and knew exactly what to do. He looked just as natural with a bong in his hands as he does swimming in the pool. He was the gold medal winner of bong hits. Michael ended up getting a little paranoid, though, because before too long he looked like he was nervous and ran out of the place.”

What an idiot!

The Golden Boys' corporate sponsors sure won't be pleased!

When Phelps' agents caught wind that the NOTW was going to run the pic, they supposedly got down on their hands and knees for mercy. The gold medal winner's money men offered the paper,

1. Phelps as a NOTW columnist for three years
2. Host for NOTW events
3. Advertising money from Phelps' corporate sponsors

We're glad the NOTW said no and ran with it!

More importantly, Golden Boy might be out of the London 2012 Olympics because of this eff up.

A law that bans athletes for four-years for taking drugs has just hit the Olympic rule book.

The US Olympics Committee, USA Swimming and Phelps’ coach Bob Bowman have refused to comment.

We wanna hear what Momma Debbie Phelps has to say!

After winning so many gold medals in the Olympics, it only made sense that Michael Phelps would take a break to relax and celebrate.

Though we think that someone's been pAArtying a bit too much!

Don't get us wrong, his body is still looking HOT but what the hell happened to his abs?

Phelps was spotted this week playing football in Miami Beach while vacationing with friends.

But remember what his abs and body looked like here? And what about this pic?

Someone needs to hit the gym again soon - and it's not just us!
