Here in Madison it's legal to possess small amounts in your house.
edit: and no more criminal prosocution (it won't show up on your record)

"The Broncos signed Travis Henry in the off-season to a five-year, $22.5 million contract with $12 million in guarantees.
The news of Henry's marijuana bust comes as lawyers try to collect back child support for the NFL star's nine illegitimate children.
A document filed in Denver Country court shows that, despite his football contract, Henry failed to pay child support in the amount of $6,400 for a daughter living in North Carolina.
This comes after a FOX 31 investigation revealed that a Georgia judge made the unprecedented move of ordering Henry to establish a trust, in the amount of $250,000 to support a different child living near Atlanta.
He was more than six months behind in support payments for that child.
Repeated calls to Mr. Henry?s agent and attorneys throughout our investigations have never been returned."
What a piece of shit.

I believe he was trying to say that you just don't legalize a crime, no matter how absurd, just because it's frequently broken. Granted the analogy was apples to oranges, but whatever.
It's legality is questionable. Check out the ordinance in my earlier post. Henry was just under contract. And it's not illegal to smoke, just to possess

Someone else is a cbs fantasy player. Should have kept that close to the vest for a little while longer!

It's pretty illegal in any form thanks to that contract he just signed
Yep. Will he still get the 12mil in 'guarantees' ? I'm not entirely certain what they mean by 'guarantees'
If marijuana is as bad as they say it is, they should allow him to hurt his own game. It is a performance inhibitor not enhancer.

It's hard to say without someone reporting on the actual contract language. With how a NFL team can cut you and stop paying you for just the salary cap hit, the only true guarantees are any monies paid to you once you sign the contract. Where it gets confusing is that sometimes roster bonuses are called guarantees, but all the team would need to do is cut you before that date to get out of paying it, so not really a true guarantee in the NFL sense.

It's more the image of the league that's supposed to be kept here, rather then the degradation of a player's performance.
As ridiculous as it may be to a lot of you, marijuana is still not totally acceptable by law, and breaking a silly law is still breaking the law.
Sweet.. i picked up Selvin a cpl weeks ago thinking that Travis would sit a few games due to injury... This should put him on the pine for at least 4 games and give SY a chance to steal some carries even when he comes back
