    RJ is incredibly humble in this interview. He is one of the most dominant athletes in the last 40 years. Very much the Shaq of baseball
  • @SouthsideSox007
    Randy’s a legend. I could listen to him talk ball all day.
  • @Realdrlipschitz
    For those of you who aren’t into baseball, this man was probably the most intimidating pitcher to ever live… and not just that, he was ELITE; he’s in most people’s all-time starting rotation. A league where the men played this sport at the absolute highest level in the world, he was a king amongst men.
  • Randy looks unrecognizable!! Not necessarily in a bad way but just different! I think it’s the beard and glasses
  • @WesTheMarketer
    Great interview. As a Braves fan, would love to see Chipper or Maddox on the show. Would be a good time.
  • @mascooze17
    Bro crazy I been watching Randy highlights since I been playing MLB the show recently, and first interview I’ve ever seen him in like a week later. Crazy
  • @RiptideShark
    Randy is my GOAT. Dude upped his game halfway through his career and became one of the scariest pitchers in history
  • @VegasLoungeAct
    Wish he touched on the two guys that really turned his career around, Tom House & Nolan Ryan. They set him on the path to greatness.
  • My all time favorite player of ALL TIME!!! The big unit!…Mr. Randy Johnson!!! Hells yeah!!!
  • @YourTapeworm
    "I AM RANDY JOHNSON" is all i heard and im satisfied
  • @Referee583
    One of the best! Now Randy is a photographer for the NFL
  • Absolutely love this guy. Hard to say he’s underrated given his stats and his HOF status. But I think with his occasional wildness makes some think he’s not as good as he is. He’s phenomenal. I absolutely love this guy. I also love his personality. I remember after he hit the bird, he was not amused. He was pissed at everyone laughing because he felt so badly. I mean, it’s not his fault, and it’s incredible, so I’m glad he can laugh at it now, but still… I love his compassion for animals. Not at all surprised that he’s doing safari photographs and the like now. So on brand. I haven’t a clue what his politics is, but he SEEMS like a compassionate, caring, loving guy. …on top of his phenomenal career. Love everything about him. One of my top five favorites of all time who didn’t play for my own team.
  • Lifetime Mariners fan! Big Unit is the dude! Unstoppable freak and the bird moment is 1 in a 1,000,000,000
