Marijuana is one of the substances on the prohibited list for college and professional athletes, and its detection can result in fines and suspensions. If I were an athlete in a state like Colorado, where marijuana is as legal as a glass of beer, how does it apply to the prohibited list of substances? Would I receive sanctions for using something that is perfectly legal? And what about drug pre-screening tests in those states? JERRY KUBAL, TAMPA - --- MAP posted-by: Matt
