Well I'll be damned. Super interested to see how they implement this since they operate across all states. So not only dealing with the fact that there's still a federal ban on marijuana (my wife's a licensed vet and is going through her DEA licensing for distribution of controlled again and found out under no circumstances is she allowed to be prescribed medical marijuana), but also the fact that some states haven't even passed their own decriminalization.

Will it just be "you might get arrested, but you won't be banned from playing football?" And if they do random tests, and someone tests positive and is in a state where it is criminal, do they have to reveal the identity of the positive result to the state?
