LANSING — Former National Football League players Calvin Johnson and Robert Anderson Sims were hoping to get into Michigan’s fledgling marijuana industry.
But the Michigan Medical Licensing Board dashed those hopes Friday when it denied prequalification status for their venture, including a marijuana dispensary, grow operation and marijuana processor.
The reason, in part, was a couple of minor traffic tickets that Johnson hadn’t taken care of when submitting his application.
