THE news of Michael Phelps\u2019 DUI arrest early Tuesday morning in Baltimore has more than just the general swimming community talking. There are many, many questions that remain unanswered, and one of them regards the punishment Phelps should receive from USA Swimming, the national governing body that oversees competitive swimming in the United States in the same way the NFL governs professional football. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2X4vDIp3rF8?rel=0&#038;autoplay=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<b>YouTube Measures Views Only For Episodes Watched On YouTube<br \/>\nSubscribe to our YouTube channel, SwimmingWorldSPI<\/b><\/p>\n<p>And that is the question we\u2019re posing to you in our new poll question. What type of punishment should USA Swimming give Michael Phelps? We\u2019re giving you four options. Should USA Swimming give him no punishment for his DUI arrest? Should it only suspend him from competition? Should Phelps only lose the financial support he gets as a member of the national team? Or should he get a suspension from competition and lose his financial compensation from USA Swimming?<\/p>\n<p>To vote in our Poll of the Week, go to swimmingworld.com, where you\u2019ll see the poll on the right side of the page.<\/p>\n<p>Before we end today\u2019s segment, let\u2019s bring you the results of our previous poll, which asked you to pick the team you believe will win the women\u2019s NCAA Division I swimming and diving championships. This was a close result, one of the closest we\u2019ve seen. With 35 percent of the vote, the California Golden Bears were picked to win. Their Bay Area rival, Stanford, came in second with 33 percent. And Georgia, the reigning champion, followed in third with 26 percent. If you were confident another school could win, we let you pick other, and 6 percent voted for that. I\u2019m sure the coaches and swimmers on these teams hope the team title race isn\u2019t that close, but from an outsider\u2019s perspective, it certainly creates some excitement at the meet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photo by Catherine Ladd PHOENIX, Arizona, October 1.
