Why should he be condemned for things he said almost 20 years earlier as a young man? He already paid the price. This is a big part of the problem in society today judging people for their distant past instead of giving them a chance to show how they’ve changed. Nobody is perfect some people hide their flaws much better than others can but one you’re not hiding is your self-righteousness
@user-hr8fj5ve3s LOL We get it, you're as racist and sexist as he is! 🤣🤣🤣 You saw as well as we did that he hadn't changed at all in 20 years! He was just as racist and sexist now as he was back then! And yes, the show clearly knew this! Again, you can stop dogwhistling to your racist and sexist friends that you're as racist and sexist as them - we all know already! Just admit it! 🤣🤣🤣
He didn't even mention black people in that article, yet the other tribe was accusing him of racism towards black people. Never in the season did they show or say what it was he said. Throwing around accusations of racism with zero proof is ignorant and classless. Saying "some queer with aids" is disrespectful, but he didn't say he is against gays. He said some mean stuff, but that doesn't make him a monster. Getting a nose piercing or having three failed marriages shows a greater lack of judgement. John Rocker is the man, and New York continues to get worse. The man is not a pariah, he's a damn prophet.
I have never had a problem with John Rocker do I agree with what he has said before no I don’t but this is America he has the right to free speech and I don’t think just because he’s a Pro Athlete he should be treated any different it’s like an old saying I heard years ago “I might disagree with what you say but I’ll defend with my life your right to say it”
If you answer every answer with a question, eventually you circle back to the point and place of beginning. That seems to be the message of this clip. You can dodge, avoid and evade questions posed, those that require some thoughtful/hard answers, by deflecting and answering the question(s) with another question. Are the questions supposed to be the "answer" in a philosophical sort of sense? Yes? No? Maybe? Well there you have it - more questions and the final answer? That seems to be the point of this video.
He needed to write a statement and was farming ideas from his staff. It turned into a good review but if Peggy had asked when her needs didn’t align with his own then I assume she would’ve had very different answers
The fact that he has helped veterans, homeless people, raised millions for charity etc… but let’s harp on one article from his early 20s… I wonder how many of these contestants have helped as many people as him?
I love that this is foreshadowing the ending with the hilltop Coke commercial. Basically Don created an AD with meaning which is what Peggy said she wanted to do during this review and Don scoffed at
3:15 "HE SAID A WHOLE BUNCH OF RACIST AND HOMOSEXUAL STUFF". That part always makes me laugh lmao. Jeremy's heart was in the right place, he was just a little confused.
@SomeBol If have a job, I'm sure your employer would love to see your comment here. People like John Rocker have no place in sports, and especially no place in working society.
0:44 It’s kind of funny how he mentions asians but then mentions a bunch of other ethnic groups that are technically asian (with the except of spanish)
Just a bunch of winey shit talking gossiping clowns. They don't this man. They go off of past stuff and rumors. This generation is so winey and complaining. It's funny everybody has stuff in their life bit not everyone's stuff Is public lol. Stop judging other people and worry about yourself. Don't tell other people how to live their life. That's not up to you . You don't have that power. We're all accountable for ourselves and that's all.
I started researching the guy because I was genuinely curious. I still can't tell if he's more known for baseball or Survivor. His award winning personality preceeds both of them though.
@Carcinogen Otter Nothing award-winning about his racist, ugly attitudes. I can't see him having a good life after all of these ugly TV appearances, and his pathetic temper tantrums in sports.
What a patronizing Dick! Treats a woman like a school girl in the principal's office. However, when Don gets his performance review its over a drink - buddy buddy in the Good Ole Boys Club. F--king sexism in this period makes me sick. I'm old enough to have been patronized in the office for many years till I knew better.
Don isn't asking these questions to gauge Peggy as much as it's a reflective critique on his own banal existence. The writing will always be the winning point of this series for me.
i'll never understand the people in life who come after what i'm trying to do...because i don't have it and struggle in the process. specifically, they emphasize that work isn't their life...merely a means to an end, something they don't think about as soon as they punch out....and therefore, in the grand perspective, a given person does NOT need to be so specific about what they do - whatever pay the bills. I absolutely get that....and i don't begrudge ANY profession. Warehouse, sewers, writers, police, utilities, drivers,....we need it all, and whoever can do it well is a hero of willpower and motivation. However,...work is your life. It's too big a part of it not to earn that title. You have to reconcile or find SOME worth in what you do to keep yourself from walking out, getting fired, or killing yourself. Because you have a ton of jobs to choose from. In theory, many of them should take care of you. So how do you pick? Major question? And if your shitty warehouse job pays for your insurance or 401K or retirement or vacations....that's the meaning of life right there....how you want to spend your time and the latter portion of your life, whether for your children your spouse or yourself. And if you want to achieve something linked to your job, well, that's a no brainer. Work is life....it makes you miserable or makes you happy one way or another...and how you live is the closest to "meaning" you're gonna get.
As bad as John Rocker is. Why is it okay for Natalie Anderson to bring up his past publicly like that. She wasn't part of his tribe but she pushed it to make the others vote him out. I guess it was strategy?
she litteraly won and john rocker did say horrible things. By the logic of forget and forgive lots of horrible people get let back into society to say more horrible things
@@charliemeisner5997 But you're excusing the things Natalie said to get a rise out of John Rocker. She judged him without even meeting him. In fact he wasn't even the one that wanted her sister out. She speculated and brought up things from his past career.
@charliemeisner5997 lmfao dude have you not seen the clips of Natalie being homophobic on The Amazing Race? Also, listen to John Rockers past comments. He didn't say anything "racist". He literally predicted what is happening in the country today. John Rocker is a nice dude until you bully/push him to the limit.
someone always wants to idolize the villian. actions speak louder than words- and his actions AND words toward Natalie reflect that he is aggressive and not humbled by his MLB hishap
I'm in my thirties and I can recall my parents, who were 32 and 18 in 1971, talking about that ad before Mad Men ever aired. I don't think people who don't understand the cultural significance of that ad really recognize just how good the ending to Mad Men was.
Watch this scene and then go back and watch Peggy's first day in episode 1. Then she was a timid young girl being told by Joan not to be intimidated by the the "technology" (i.e., the typewriter, the phone, and the intercom) in order to be a secretary, and ten years later she's stating her ambition to become the first woman creative director of the agency.
Why in the world was this guy allowed onto the show?! This was all public record! Good God!

He was right tho
Loving Peggy’s outfit!! 🏳️⚧️
0:40 “That’s what I’m asking…what’s next?” Maybe Don’s looking for answers to copy off Peggy, bc he himself can’t answer his own questions
Did he say anything that was factual wrong? Sorry he failed the leftist litmus test. That's actually a good thing
If John Rocker knew that you put Coldplay over videos of him, he’d probably have something homophobic to say about it
What a 🤡

I wonder if he's asking her so he can tell himself "what's next."
Why TF were there so many white contestants every season for years and years and years???
Some seasons were more diverse from others. 21-30 were the least diverse seasons. 21,24,28, 29 were not bad but all the rest had 1-3 POC
He just said some things about New York out loud that many New Yorkers themselves believe only are too bitch made to say lol good for him…

Because natalie is filled with victim mentality. She couldn't fathom the fact that her sister got voted out first. She's just butthurt

We get to hear those MLK tapes in 2027 to prove your point.
Some people have nothing in their heart except hatred.
Lol Jeremy and natalie were definitely that. Couldn't accept the fact John got out their blood.
Ironically Don is (seemingly) the one who created possibly the most famous ad of all time.
Which one?
@@larissarosa3008 The Coke ad at the very end of the series.
@@maxhydekyle2425 thank you for answering.
yup I think he remembered Peggy saying "create a catch phrase" and "create something of lasting value" as he came up with the coke pitch

"For John to be a professional athlete and act like that"... girl, you are stupid
I love how she says ‘is that on there?’ Don is always stealing other people’s ideas haha!
No room for Hate or racism period
