Olympian Michael Phelps is living a pretty sweet life right now, following his record breaking 19th medal achievement earlier this week. But things could possibly get sweeter for the swimmer: he could possibly become a sports commentator for future Olympic events.
According to TMZ, TV execs are going crazy for him, saying that he would be a great addition to have once his time at this year’s Games are over. A source from NBC told them that Michael is “smoking hot” right now and “would definitely hire Michael” to cover the Olympics in 2016, and other world sporting events between now and then.”
Considering he’s planning to retire once the London Olympics are over, he would be at the top of his game (possibly walking away with 22 medals, if he places in his upcoming events) and the pickings would be massive for him to choose for.
NBC has the rights to air the Olympics through 2020, but if he doesn’t want to go there, ABC has said they would “gladly scoop him up to work for us.”
Sounds like no matter where he turns, his life is going to be pretty sweet.
