NCAA to remove cannabinoid ban from post-season football

NCAA DI removes cannabinoids from banned drug class

It’s a major change to a rule that's had high-profile consequences over the past decade.

Sounds like you can now smoke up in the post-season. Not sure why the regular season is off-limits still.

If we had gotten this ruling maybe a decade ago, maybe Randy Gregory would have gotten us to a National Championship just so he could smoke his own weight in reefer.

Are those clouds or is that smoke coming in from the southwest?

I think Maurice Washington or Keyshawn Johnson, Jr. might be better examples

Maybe @Pops could be the 1890 Initiative's point man for this angle of NIL!

Other than it was illegal, I'm not sure it is any way performance enhancing.

Now that it's legally recreationally in 1/3-1/2(?) of the country, you can't close Pandora's Box.

The theory was that cannabinoids were NOT used in practice or game situations. Cannabinoids allowed the athlete to relax after a practice. This allows the athlete to endure a more difficult, painful, or longer practice session.

So the after-practice smoker would have a slight advantage over the after-practice video game player, because tomorrow the smoker is ready to slam the weights again, while the Madden 2024 player is still sore.

True? False? Who knows. We could ask some people, but I'm guessing most of the smokers on this forum are not maxing their bench and squats every day.

I think it may also be about the advantages it gives in post concussion treatment. It supposedly helps with the headaches.

Pass the Weed . Actually MJ is safer than beer both health and mind .... because my past experience

BTW, now 25 states are recreational usage. Mostly remaining states except Nebraska, medical.

6 blocks away from my house. Whole bunch of dispensary shops in Norman Okieland. Noticed Drive-Thru window. Customer order .... "hamburger, fries, shakes and weed"

CBD alone has a ton of medical benefits. A lot to unlock with cannabis, but it has been medicine for 1000s of years.

As a veteran with a beat up body and had the military/VA push opioids that led to 8 or 9 year opioid addiction, cannabis saved my life. The meds the VA used to give me were infinitely worse on my body.

Good on the NCAA for getting it right. Alcohol is so much worse than cannabis on your body.

Psilocybin is in the on deck circle. I know tons of veterans that had great results for PTSD on that front.

$0.02 from someone that has been both paths.

My two uncles died due to a stomach problems. Both non-smokers but beer habits.

I hope banned TV/magazines/billboards beer commercials .... Just like cigarettes 40 years ago. My guess sleazy lobbyist thing.

If people drank to recover, well thats idiotic. MJ to recover makes sense. Not all that big on using either for recreation. One drink or two, ok, weak MJ, ok, but drunk or overly stoned, not OK for recreation.
