In the past few days, Michael Phelps has become the most famous bare-chested person since David Hasselhof. I mean, we have seen way too much of this guy with his shirt off for him to not wind up in some big-time spreads in the weekly mags next week... and possibly even the week after that. Should he get that eighth gold medal, his record-breaking Olympic performance could even be cover material.I'm not suggesting that this son-every-mother-dreams-of will become a mainstay on anyone's Celebulous squad -- he seems way too straight-laced and normal to be long-term celebrity material, but his nipples and pecs and delts have become way too famous to not be photographed a billion times over the next couple weeks.
And remember, extra points for bare chests. What could be better than a celebrity swimmer?
If he's still available in your league and you have a spot on your squad that's not occupied by a long-term media darling you'd be afraid to lose (Britney, Paris, Brangelina, Lindsay Lohan, Miley Cyrus, etc.), then drop someone and grab Mr. Phelps. He should reap some fine rewards next week.
And if you don't have many better options, maybe keep him around for a week or two after that. There'll surely be some pictures of him and the family returning to "normal" life in Baltimore after the Games.
