Was not thrilled over the SI cover of Michael Phelps. I would hope he would get the last say in which picture would grace the cover of the magazine. I think it was an unflattering picture of him. Personally, I've seen so many more flattering pics of Michael and thought SI was making a point by using one that didn't showcase a "handsome" guy but an amazing swimmer. I guess that was the focus, which is great...but a better picture wouldn't have hurt anyone now would it? :P
