i thought cali would be the first.

So that means their players over 21 won't get suspended if they smoke it?

Still a federal law.  Anyone can still be arrested and prosecuted in federal court.

Will that happen, who knows, but technically Federal law holds jurisdiction.

as john denver would have sung .... back in 1972 ......

It's a Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rain fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)
Rocky mountain high
(high in Colorado)

"Rocky Mountain High" is primarily inspired by John Denver's move to Aspen, Colorado, United States three years earlier and his love for the state. The seventh stanza makes a reference to destruction of the mountains' beauty by commercial tourism. The song was considered a major piece of 1970s pop culture, and became a well-associated piece of Colorado history.

The song briefly became controversial that year when the U.S. Federal Communications Commission was permitted by a legal ruling to censor music deemed to promote drug abuse. Numerous radio stations cautiously banned the song until Denver publicly explained that the "high" was his innocent description of the sense of peace he found in the Rockies. In 1985, Denver testified before Congress in the Parents Music Resource Center hearings about his experience:

This was obviously done by people who had never seen or been to the Rocky Mountains, and also had never experienced the elation, celebration of life, or the joy in living that one feels when he observes something as wondrous as the Perseid meteor shower on a moonless, cloudless night, when there are so many stars that you have a shadow from the starlight, and you are out camping with your friends, your best friends, and introducing them to one of nature's most spectacular light shows for the first time

Not sure how to respond to this one... Time for another bowl I guess..

John Denver could put together a ditty, that's for sure.

I'm sure it will still be a violation of team rules ...

Joe Schad‏ @ schadjoe NCAA says legalization of marijuana in Colorado/Washington won't have an impact on their testing and/or rules

lol,whatever!!

The NCAA has made it clear that their testing and drug policy will not change dispite the new laws passed in Colorado and Washington. The US government drug inforcement division has also made it clear that dispite the new laws the federal government still considers "weed" to be a drug that is abused and therefore they will be taking action in those states to limit or stop distribution. 

I fail to see an advantage to recruting by breaking the rules. Athletes are still accountable to a higher standard by the NCAA. Regardless of the laws.

fyi: Mediacal marijuna shops are everywhere,only exception, can't be near a school. The new law for recreational use , dosn't go in effect till 2013. Feds have not been a problem as of yet.You can legally have up to 1 oz, grow up to 4 plants, indoors...when the new law takes effect... As for the ncaa imposing standards, " Teams" ie= LSU etc will be there on policeman on this one, as this should be a team rule...

Tyrann Matieiu approves

My God........the writing is on the wall........ the government is already in debt up to their eyeballs..........

Freaking legalize and tax the hell out of weed and sell it. The fact that it's still illegal is just plain DUMB on the part of the federal government. 

Glad that those two states pushed it through........

lol, whatever?  Well when they test positive and are suspended their fans and coaches won't say whatever!!  Still against federal law and still against ncaa rules.

Legalizing and regulating weed would:

- Make money for government through sales tax.
- Open up jail space for true criminals.
- Take away power from violent drug cartels / dealers.
- Put more police out in the community to deal with more serious crimes.

You can't regulate morality!

- People know that smoking causes cancer. Yet people smoke.
- Prohibition of alcohol didn't stop a lot of good citizens from partaking in speak easys, and in the process make crime bosses like Al Capone.
- STDs, Aids, etc... don't keep people from having sex.

All law is the legislation of morality.

Most laws are broken. Is this sufficient reason to eliminate all law.

I don't really want to argue this law as those discussions always turn into a p###ing contest. But I couldn't let that logic pass, uncontested.

Colorado's recruiting advantage is that virtually anyone they recruit could step in and start immediately on the mess of a team they have!!!!!!!
