Justin Klein over at FightLawyerblog has had his finger on the pulse of the New York State MMA bills, and today he's got some good news - http://www.fightlawyerblog.com/2011/03/more-good-news-senate-bill-to-legalize.html. Essentially, things are proceeding nicely, with the legislation now much further along in the process compared to where it was this time last year.
Also, there will be a UFC 128 press conference on Wednesday at Radio City Music Hall, with some kind of "bring MMA to New York" rally outside the venue at 12:30pm. Apparently, Dana White will be there leading the civil disobedience, with the first 1,000 victims of tear gas and police riot dispersal units getting a free T-shirt. Woop-woop!
