Good grief.

But I guess as Kevin wrote, I’ll take it.

It’s sad it’s taking as long as it is for a perfectly legit sport to become legalized.

It’s funny how all the negative associations to MMA (such as human cock fighting, etc) seem to miraculously disappear in the name of money.

Given New York State’s success and interest in wrestling, MMA will be a logical success in the area. Thanks to people like Joe Demeo who has made combat sports popular in Albany, fans will flock when MMA comes to town.
