President John Mara: "We certainly agree with the grand jury's decision.
We said last week we felt strongly that Antonio's actions did not warrant criminal charges, and obviously the grand jury, having heard all of the testimony, felt the same way."

Chairman Steve Tisch: "This was an extremely serious matter that Antonio and our organization responded to in an appropriate way. Needless to say, we are happy with the decision announced today by the Manhattan district attorney's office.."

General Manager Jerry Reese: "Antonio is a leader on this team, but he is still human, and this has been an emotionally draining experience for him. We know he was happy to get to training camp yesterday, and with this behind him, he can focus all his energy and efforts on football. He took this matter very seriously."

Head Coach Tom Coughlin: "As I said yesterday, we are anxious to start the new season, nobody more than Antonio. Today's decision allows him and this team to move forward and focus on our preparation for the season."

I see Tony Bernazard is from your hometown of Caguas, PR. You had mentioned in June that Alex Cora was from your hometown.

Yea, Tony is someone my family knows very well. Alex's brother, Joey, played Little League ball with my older brother. Funny! Small world right?!

It certainly is a "Small World Afterall...."
Joey Cora is a wonderful baseball mind and will probably manage in the Major Leagues someday. Alex may also. As for Tony, he may have difficulty getting a another job in professional baseball.
Terrific baseball town your grew up in.
