Michael Phelps Channels Mark Spitz -Sports Illustrated Cover


Michael Phelps, aka the Beijing Bad-Ass, is of course going to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated as soon as they can get the presses rolling. I wonder who’s idea it was to copy Michael’s childhood hero, Mark Spitz 1972 cover? Was Phelps ever born then? Either way I’m glad they did as it the new cover made me search for the old cover and led us to some vintage 1972 mustached Magnum sexiness.

Micheal Phelps says he’s going to buy a house and some boy toys with the $100 million he is expected to earn in endorsement deals. Let’s do the math; 8 Olympic gold medals + lifetime of training = $100 Mil.

Note to the dudes that run SI; You put every hot model you can find in a tiny bikini once a year, you couldn’t have put Michael Phelps into an American flag Speedo for your female readers?
