Strongside that’s where you’re wrong. my drug dealer has been selling me medicinal cocaine to repair my broken arm for the last 5 years. seems to be working, I feel fucking fantastic.

You're absolutely right. And to further your position I'd have to include the fact that the use of such narcotics typically cause the user to have no ability to eat a full and proper diet while also having the effects of the drugs themselves depleting all of your bodies healthy tissue as well as limiting your ability to heal properly and in the same timeframe as a healthy person would experience. If he didn't get into the drugs he likely wouldn't have gotten hurt and even possibly would have continued his dominance and set records that wouldn't have been touched for a long time. Truly a sad story. He seemed like a good dude. Just had his demons he couldn't defeat. Sadly this is something that happens quite often. WAAAAAY bigger of a problem than what fans realize. There's literally people in place in and around these clubhouses that push these types of things onto ALL STAR PLAYERS IN ALL MAJOR SPORTS! It's a means of power and control as well as what seems to be a much larger agenda in making sure that all who are at a certain level of fame have these horrific issues that through the fans that worship these false idols the behavior is glamorized and made to seem cool. Therefore making it much more acceptable which leads to so many people (young and old) repeating the behavior and becoming addicts who are not millionaires and these folks lives just fall apart. It's such a shame to see this as the state of our country as well as the mainstream media influencing and pushing this onto people while most pretend they can't see it and many others just aren't able to see it and they just keep on watching, the problem keeps growing, families are being separated or outright destroyed. But we got 24 hour coverage of these politicians "mostly democrats" talking about families at the borders, pushing for socialism and illegals deserving all this assistance and housing paid for by the American taxpayers while our very own American brothers and sisters are living in tents all over L.A. and EVERY OTHER MAJOR CITY IN THIS COUNTRY! None of this was allowed when I was growing up and I'm from Detroit, specifically the most gang ridden area of Southwest Detroit which happened at the time to be considered the most dangerous place in the country. And the 80s n 90s were no joke but nothing like you see today. Just junkies everywhere. If we're gonna be helping people with assistance programs we need to start with all of those Americans dying in our streets. Many of which are actually Veterans or people with untreated mental illness some are both. WHERE IS THE FUCKIN OUTRAGE? WHERE IS THE MEDIA COVERAGE? WHY ARE NONE OF THE DEMOCRATS RUNNING FOR OFFICE NEVER EVEN MENTIONING SUCH THINGS? OR DAMN NEAR ALL POLITICAL FIGURES FOR THAT MATTER? SMH.....

Yea sure nerd cause you where there

@@mitcholla got any more of that powder bruh?

stop. You're making too much sense. 😚

Or Keith Hernandez. He loved his cocaine too. Great ball player though.

I wish I could. (Phillies fan)

We got biggie smalls out of it.......

I was there; July 4th 1983 at Yankee Stadium versus the Boston Red Sox, which also happened to be George Steinbrenner's birthday, striking out Wade Boggs to end the game...

Jim Abbott also had a no-hitter in 1993.

He missed a couple points on that

Sshhhh....those are secret

Sshhh....

So technicalities are what you focus on?? This no-hitter by Dwight gooden was an epic triumph of working through a family crisis with flying colors. Everybody was happy for him even the Mariners for crying out loud. Most people cry when they watch this particular no-hitter. It is the component of the American dream known as the second chance that makes this so compelling.

@@meirdaniel7515 excellent point. I grew up a Mets fan and Doc was my idol. Watching that no hitter brought some emotion. His father was on his death bed that night but he said his dad would want him pitching. He gave the game ball to his father.

Mickey Mantle hit the ball in the middle out of the park more than 500 times, to give another example of your point.

lol

Rafael Esmerio Dwight Howard isn’t good enough for a whole video by FPV

thanks !

@@FivePointsVids no thank you sir, for giving me and all of us great sports content!

YES

Noice

Limiting innings and pitch counts doesn't seem to be helping much considering that pitchers are still getting injured at ridiculously high rates.

100% agreed. I've watched 3 videos about Gooden in the past week. Your comment makes more sense than anything I've heard or the comments I've read in those videos about his downfall.

"drugs truly had no impact on his performance" Seriously? In interviews over the years Gooden himself has said the complete opposite.

During his early years it didn't. But not long after that it did.

Yep. Torborg did the same thing to AJ Burnett. A tragedy and a waste.

Yes, in 86 he was not nearly the pitcher he was in 84 and 85, when he was as close to unhittable as anybody ever was maybe except for Koufax. And you mention that he got "bigger", and that affected his mechanics/release point. Totally agree, he started to get "thick" in the middle, and that ferocious leg kick that he had started to dissipate, and he lost that explosiveness and high hop on his fastball, and hitters started finally to catch up to it. And yes, I think the drugs and partying obviously did not help matters. His windup and delivery completely changed and slowed down by the late eighties, and not for the better. To me, the fist two years it looked "explosive", and after that it got almost lethargic looking. He really could have benefited greatly from simply "getting in shape" and doing some core exercises. Look at Seaver, his delivery didn't change at all from the time he came up to the time he retired, he built it all on those legs and the pushoff. Goodens' power came from that high leg kick and over the top delivery, which he was not able to maintain. Once he lost it, he lost his magic.

He was spent by the time of the World Series. I’m sure drugs played a huge part

thanks !

I know Urinating tree was there too

Fred Wilpon. Dammit, why am I a lifelong Mets fan?

I can't stand the movie Young Guns.

Caveman take

Probably not 5000 K's, definitely well over 3000 though. He would've had to pitch well into his 40's to hit 5000. Just look at all the guys who got over 4000 (Steve Carlton, Randy Johnson, Roger Clemens, Nolan Ryan), they all pitched until at least 43 years old.

@@unkledoda420 with the career he’s had , he already had over 2,000. It’s definitely possible he’d have over 5,000 K’s. He most likely would have. Either that or just flamed out over time with overuse.

@@igraham125 If you take the average numbers of K's from his 5 best seasons (84, 85, 86, 88, and 90) that's 228. To hit 5000 he would've had to average 228 strikeouts for 22 (21.9 actually) seasons in a row.

@@unkledoda420 Yea that's definitely possible considering his best years which you mentioned, most likely weren't the best that he could do considering what he was experiencing in life outside baseball. 220 Ks is not impossible on a consistent basis.

His first 3 seasons 268 276 and 200 , by that time issues off field already. It’s definitely safe to assume he’d easily average over 220 Ks a year if what happened didn’t happen. Not saying you’re gonna get 220 EVERY year bc stuff happens some years 200 some 220 some 190 but it’s definitely possible.

yes. my videos.

@@FivePointsVids nice

Hey I haven't been keeping up but I remember back when you said you you thought you weren't getting enough subscribers. I hope that shit has changed. Totally love your videos and your picture on page gives everyone a good insight to who you are. Like I told you before I will be subscribing in that stuff, it's been a little bit tight lately.

chris hustead I appreciate it bro, truly. Subs are consistent. People want me to do trigger videos but I like doing these types. They are fun for me. And I always want to have fun first.

@@FivePointsVids hey you owe me a Tom vs Joe vid. Ha you don't owe me shit. I was talking about the Insight on your patreon page, stupid voice to text. You do you bro !

He has hall numbers...put him in

LOL aka HELL

Eddie Cordero truth but still Nolan wasn't overused until he was an established starter and Greg Maddux wasn't a fb pitcher Gooden was used as a 19 year old another example was Fernando Valenzuela who was overused in 1981 including game 3 of the ws and was constantly pitching complete games until 1986 when he blew his rotator cuff and was never the same. I agree drugs did play a part in killing Gooden overuse did it's damage as well
