I think we are comparing two different thing here, apples and oranges. While I am totally against use of non doctor prescribed medications, there is a medical need for both, steroids and marijuana. Recently we had a local cop that was busted by the FBI for years of steroid use. This fool actually sent in a request to his roid drug dealer on city police stationary:

I live in one of these states and currently there are over 100,000 individuals that have, with there doctors approval, been allowed to medically use marijuana in accordance with there state laws. There are currently many professional athletes that are enrolled in these programs. Mr. Phelps may be one of these individual. But why would he want to share this information?
