"This Is A National League Town"

Today I had the great honor of being a guest on the taping of "Quite Frankly", hosted by Stephen A. Smith. The special guest on the show was non other than our beloved GM Omar Minaya. Smith led off his interview with the hard stuff. He talked to Omar about the fact that more than half of the Met players are Hispanic. Minaya gave the same response he has been giving since this whole incident came about, "I am just trying to put out the best players". Minaya also says that it has nothing to do with race, religion, or sexual orientation. Omar and Smith also talked about the second base job, as well as right field and the starting rotation. During the interview Smith made it clear that he was a Yankee fan, he asked Omar to explain what he was trying to say when he said "this is a national league town". Omar responded by giving the Yanks credit for being as great as they were, but that the history of NY proves that this truly is a national league town. The two historical teams of NY are the Brooklyn Dodgers and the NY Giants, both are NL teams. "Quite Frankly" airs nightly at 11:00 PM EST on ESPN2. This specific episode should air in about two weeks. Check out the show for an exact date.
