lol at Rosie O'donnell's brother.

A bill that would legalize professional mixed martial arts was finally passed by the New York State Assembly on Tuesday – although not without some scrutiny by legislators.

“I thought I should learn a little bit about (MMA),” said Assemblyman Daniel O'Donnell (D-Manhattan), who is gay. “Well, I should really like it. You have two nearly naked, hot men trying to dominate each other. That’s gay porn with a different ending.”

O'Donnell, the brother of actress Rosie O'Donnell, concluded his remarks by saying that he would “take a cold shower” and hopes the state would remain the only one in the nation where pro MMA would remain banned.
