"Speaking to ESPN, National Football League Commissioner Roger Goodell suggested the sports ban on medical marijuana could be lifted in the future if the practice has already been legalized in a players state."
Medical marijuana is recommended by doctors for headaches, light-sensitivity, sleeplessness and loss of appetiteall of which happen to be symptoms associated with concussions, the Nation noted on its blog in 2012. The idea that the league would deny a player their legal pain relief of choice seems barbaric.
Tell me what you think about it. I think it'd be good for them to legalize it, or make it not a punishment. Probably the only natural medicine they can get for any of their pains on the field.
