Subway does not want to alienate customers with the munchies – and therefore the sandwich giant has announced they'll be keeping their endorsement deal with stoner swimmer Michael Phelps.

Subway says "Like most Americans, and like Michael Phelps himself, we were disappointed in his behavior. Also like most Americans, we accept his apology. Moving forward, he remains in our plans."

This is good news for Phelps, who suffered a huge financial blow when he was recently dropped by Kelloggs. Oh, and if you've been living under a rock and have no idea what this blog is talking about – radical photos of the Olympic swimmer hitting the bong hit the Internets last week, courtesy of British tabloid News of the World. Everybody is disappointed in America's Golden boy. Well, everyone except this guy.

This is a dark day for Jared Fogle everyone. He was probably salivating when he saw the Phelps bong pics.

    Michael Phelps is an American Hero. He stood tall and made America proud at the Beijing Olympics. This is how America treats its heroes, we forget all of the hard work Michael Phelps did to achieve his task, we forget the pride we felt with the each gold medal, we forget how Phelps helped America to be competitive against a Chinese when they planned on winning all of the gold’s, we forget all of those things and hang a man for smoking a glass pipe at a college party. It is time that we as a country stand up for the rights of the individual, it’s time we stand together with our neighbors and take collective control of our destinies. Write a congressman or a senator any of them; imagine the weight of millions of emails calling for a change in policy. In this moment in America anything is possible just Google the email address of you’re representative and send him or her short email. It will take 10 minutes but then you have taken responsibility for change. A senator considers each email as representative of 2 thousand voters.
