This is something to be expected from normal 'celebrities', but not from an athlete, who is expected to keep his body 'healthy' so to speak.
It think he could be setting bad example for children looking up to him. I think the biggest issue is that it's illegal, because smoking pot is not as bad for your body as drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes. If he can smoke pot and stay healthy thats fine with me. If he wants to destroy his body that's also fine with me.

I think he gave an empty apology, but I really don't care. I don't think it's the government's, or anyone else's, business what people do with their own bodies.

I know it's an exageration, but it puts things into perspective.....
That's infringing upon someone else's wellbeing vs just your own.
