Sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me.

[@ThePatMan42069]

[@bostonredsox49]

Don't think the New York Jets really need that Bill Belichick guy. They'll be fine :3

[@Frankieefootballmundial]

The jets made it to the playoffs 5 times when belichick coach the patriots but never made the super bowl

[@androi1340]

Anyone notice the GNC Ronnie Coleman advertisement? Lmao, wild - how we be fine with delusion.

[@PeteyThePanda]

As a native NYer everything Rocker said was 100% dead on

[@916Smoke]

He said went and still isn’t wrong about New York.

[@chrishensley6745]

He is a Honest man.....and a great pitcher in his time.

[@box5bastard277]

Mediocre af. He made it to the dance I'll give em that, but get off that bs lol yell

[@respectamerica2382]

​@@box5bastard277 Rocker had 3 good years.

[@keithparker2660]

25 years later? Look at what's going on now. Need I elaborate?

[@Realistic316]

i loved Rocker back then…. he was the only one with the balls to speak out about how it actually was…. i was always on his side, and he was a great pitcher in the late 90s.

[@meanmr.mustard3511]

“How it actually was” lol… he definitely exposed redneck homophobia and racism

[@jmikesta]

Hey scumbag racists stick together after all.

[@burgeranus5725]

Your racist

[@nedwart]

Rocker's a bigot with a room temp IQ, and based on your comments I can only assume the same applies to you.

[@w.redmond3534]

He was one of my favorites also. He was definitely my favorite pitcher

[@CSDonohue11]

😂
Bro was hilarious at the very least

[@mattcs31]

Everything he said is accurate

[@luisceja6443]

"There's no I in team....but there's a U in cunts! So stop acting like lil cunts!" - Kenny Powers

[@genedilorenzo713]

It's funny he was just a left handed set up man, but because of injury the braves loved his 100mp arm and the rest was history. His problem was his personality and no braking ball. But his fastball was difficult to hit if you look at his pitching style.

[@theman1412]

20:00, That makes you think

[@DCwhoop]

Leave Rocker alone, damn whistleblowers

[@Snipes-76]

Predicted the future here.

[@user-rc8dk1eg9u]

[@michaelguerra3561]

[@acork7601]

John Rocker did nothing wrong

[@Davidjon1946]

Is he the son fred Gwynne ? Is he a manning ??

[@JordanO8]

No.

[@Davidjon1946]

you answered me LOL

[@respectamerica2382]

Exactly, Rocker was Trump before Trump. MAGA base as hell! My father lifetime Met fan, former Brooklyn Dodgers fan, said Rocker wasn't wrong about post 1955 NYC. NYC been declining ever since.

[@TylerManter-ng9xm]

Stop making everything about Trump.

[@jefferykuntz7302]

He wanted to know how Indians got in the country. Wow

[@respectamerica2382]

On a plane from India!

[@m-c-m-]

[@Realistic316]

[@DCwhoop]

Leave Rocker alone, damn whistleblowers
