This poster can be yours for  a mere $300!  WTF??  Would you pay that?

The truth is I might.  LOL!  I’ve become a little obsessed with Mike Phelps since his amazing accomplishments in Beijing. 

This is the first time ever that Sports Illustrated is offering a poster version of their cover.   And you can get it for $20 bucks, but if you want it autographed then it’s $300.

Pink’s New Video - So What?

Pink says this angry break-up song is NOT about her husband, but he does make a cameo in the video.  And she uses real newspaper headlines from her real-life break-up.  Interesting….

Poor Phelps

Never thought I’d say that!

He is the most talented athlete to ever compete in the Olympics… He breaks 7 World Records… Wins 8 Gold Medals… And still there is a backlash!

Most American atletes who win Gold at the Olympics end up on the Wheaties Cereal box.  This is a long-running American tradition.  Until now.  Apparently Phelps was offered far more money to pose for Kellog’s, and he took the deal. 

Nutritionists are outraged saying that Corn Flakes and Frosted Flakes are full of sugar and have half of the fibre that Wheaties have.  They are saying that Phelps is directly responsible for unhealthy kids!

Ridiculous!  I’m sure Corn Flakes are healthy,  parents don’t have to buy the sugary Frosted Flakes to get a picture of Phelps.

Above is the Corn Flakes box that will be available Mid-September.
