Did this video make you like or dislike Josh Donaldson?
Blaming others for being a jerk. Plenty of people have terrible childhoods and live normal lives.
I disliked him before the video and I still dislike him. The Tim Anderson thing didn't bother me except for the fact that he's(Donaldson) got a history of being an ass
You can throw that ball right in the trash!
Just hate the astros more when you brought up “2017 World Series champ” 😂
I like him a lot more than breg man
Josh is THE DEFINITION of "IDGAF what you think of me".
which makes him look like a hack nowadays
@@hungereats6721 think he cares? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I enjoy Josh Donaldson. As an Astros fan any easy out in the Yankees line up is a good dude for me.
yea people like that are usually insufferable.
@@J.C... it doesn't matter if he cares or not it really just show how out of tune he is with himself (like the tim anderson situation I don't think it was racist but he doesn't even know that Tim clearly isn't his friend and clearly doesn't like him😂)
The fact he was able to overcome his childhood situation, stay out of any legal/personal trouble and secure generational wealth is an absolute miracle
i think the same thing
yup, jerk or not i will always root for him
From what I can see very good to his mother too.
He’s a complete shit bag. You’d honestly be proud of your son acting like that? He’s an adult he should know better.
👍
Didn’t think it was possible. You made me understand and respect a guy I despised up to this point
Bullshit. He’s an asshole responsible for his own actions. He’s an adult.
i was thinking the same thing, except back talking Billy Bean....thats not too bright......
@@rayray4192 exactly, I'll bet the person who created this video is a white person, if a minority is a "bad" person it is because they are a minority, if a white person is a bad person there is always a sob story behind it and we are supposed to feel sorry for him
@@keve4253 I grew up in a dysfunctional family with bad parents. I’m an adult who is responsible for every thought, word , and action. I choose love over and over again. And I choose to respect and honor those who deserve respect and honor. I too, am sick of living in a racist nation. It’s disgusting and it’s also childish to be a racist. I’d like to see owners refuse to sign Donaldson and essentially, ban him from baseball. Hope you are well and happy. Take care.
Yup. I really can’t stand the dude. But after this video I kinda don’t hate him as much. Wish he would hit better. Cause he’s a great defensive 3rd baseman.
Man, I did not know all these things about Josh Donaldson. Honestly, I'm kind of surprised to learn that he is considered one of those edgy players. Mainly because during his 1 year tenure with the Braves, he was pretty much drama free, and everyone in the clubhouse seemed to love him. Hell, even when the front office couldn't figure out an extension with him, he parted the organization on good terms.
" If your coach tells you to get on top of the ball, tell him no." Is one reason why I like him
JD a moron we all saw how his last season went. Go ahead, Keep gettin under the ball you’ll stink your whole life
@@highcheese4429found giolito
I have no problem with Donaldson, and calling him a racist is ridiculous. To be compared to Jackie Robinson would be a compliment, Tim got mad because he realized how far from Jackie he is in talent.
Hate this coddling the suspect and shaming the victim.
@@nicholasmedovich6729 Anderson is hardly the victim…..
I've always liked Donaldson regardless of his antics he's always been solid and knowing he's kind of crazy on his preparation for games makes him even cooler in my opinion
I want 25 Josh Donaldsons on my team.
I like his competitiveness no one likes to lose I think people confuse him for being a jerk I think he just wants to win at all costs
I wish the braves would have worked out that deal with him, now we have the dh which would have made the last two years better
hes a racist POS, I guess that's just what you like it seems
@@edwardpeak8481 not at all the man is just good at the game of baseball period
I love that youshow his history. As someone who's buried plenty of victims of alcoholism in 35 years sober, the effects on a kid in that abusive environment are overwhelming in relationships with others. He's a massive success in his profession, and will be happier one day if he gets therapy, or ACOA recovery. I feel compassion for the kid he was, and respect for the survivor he is.
Donaldson was awesome in Toronto. One of my favourite players. He was so nice with fans and taking time with them.
I loved him in Toronto. The energy he brings is great for the team he’s playing for.
But now he hits 222.
This guy is a total cancer to any team he plays on.
You gotta roll with the guy. You do that, he can do great things for your team.
Yea he was good the one year in Atlanta from a Braves fans perspective
@@michaeladams5636 yes, but he's hitting that low on the Yankees, so still a win for Jays fans.
I saw JD in the thumbnail with “biggest jerk in baseball” and was pissed. I’m glad I watched the video and saw you weren’t doing him dirty. JD is one of the MLBs true Cinderella stories. Glad you didn’t do him dirty
Luckily italk studios is a bit more nuanced than other channels.
Yeah he is the biggest jerk
Josh is far from a jerk, he cares about the game and winning nothing jerk about him and still one my favourite players of all time
He look like a jerk hahaha lol ha lmao
“If your coach tells you to get on top of the ball, you tell him no” -Josh Donaldson
I'm an A's fan so I like Donaldson for the years he played for them and even after he left for other teams. He was one of the main reasons the A's were a contender back then. He plays hard and doesn't take sh*t. That obviously gets under the skin of players he crosses paths with. It's just his personality. Yes, he's a jerk if he isn't on your side but if he is, he is good person to have on your side.
His years with the Jays are legendary… absolute goat material!!
Blue Jays "goat?"
Yeah he is the biggest jerk no offense
He’s a fiery and successful athlete and I say that as a fan of a team that has a lot of history with him none of it good.
I don’t consider him a jerk just aggressive
That said you need to learn what goat means lol
I don't think you understand what the term "goat" actually means.
I love Josh’s story! He’s like a modern old school ball player
Yeah he is the biggest loser
You have to remember: any time you say ANYTHING to someone, stand back so you don't get a paper cut from their race card
Donaldson was such a great addition in 2015 to Edwin and Bautista. Opposing teams and fan just loathed the Jays and most of it was because of the chip Donaldson and Bautista played with, but when those guys are on your team, you love that fire.
He doesnt seem like a jerk to me. Just someone who doesnt hide his emotions.
I don't know why people called him "racist" when it was Tim Anderson HIMSELF who said "I'm the modern-era Jackie Robinson". That was ridiculous. Snowflakes everywhere.
haaa i know he legit agreed with him.. like where did you think he got the "joke"
If Donaldson had gotten started a little earlier or had played the entirety of some of those injury years, he could have had a HOF case. There are 53 position players with less WAR than Donaldson has right now. If he played a few more years or even really one more good year he'd have over 50 WAR and 300 HRs with a 131 career OPS+ and an MVP. People seem to overlook just how good he truly was. He has a higher OPS than the average HOF hitter
Being an A's fan, I was pretty pissed when Bean traded him, even after hearing about the quote insult. I knew Josh was an intese, focused, competitive player that always had his teams back, you just don't get those type of players very often so to be traded for personal reasons was bush.
As a Yankee fan who saw Donaldson all season this year, I agree with this video's title. What made me particularly furious were the (at least) FOUR different times he bat-flipped and admired his shot, only to not have the ball leave the park, turning what should have been four doubles into two singles and two times getting thrown out between first and second - and those were all just in the games at Yankee Stadium. (At one point I looked up and found the four games they happened in, for confirmation.) And then there's all the instances of being on edge, ready to explode if he got hit or nearly got hit by a pitch.
All that being said, I was not aware of his home circumstances as a child. It obviously doesn't excuse all of his actions as an adult, but it certainly makes them more understandable. (I don't mean acceptable - I mean I can understand the behavior better now.) I know I was certainly shaped by my experiences at a young age. Unfortunate that we're not in control of what happens to us in our most formative years...
Yankee fan enough said
Yup once he said he was from Florida, that’s all I needed to hear. The biggest weirdos I have ever met are from that state😂
“Hmm? Where I’m from, yeah I’m from New York”
@@SpectoRecto New Yorker eventually move to Florida once they lived long enough, Worst of both States!
@@ekfliu yeah
You've evidently never been to Noo Yawk.
That entire Tim Anderson fiasco was dumb.
Tim Anderson: I’m the next Jackie
Josh Donaldson: hey what’s up Jackie
Tim Anderson: you racist S.O.B
I know he didnt perform how the yankees or the fans expected last season, but goddamn i love me some josh donaldson. Keeps things exciting 😂
Love this video. Great use of the Batman clips and top form throwing shade at Florida. If Josh Donaldson came at me in a parking lot I would run to my car as fast as possible and I wouldn’t look back
You gotta respect the fact that he doesn't let anyone push him around and he stands up for himself. But there's always someone bigger and badder than you. And your teammates won't be there to separate y'all. So you better be able to fight. He had a hard upbringing so I'm sure he fought a lot growing up. I bet he can scrap, oh and he's a Great player too ... ...
Anybody who doesn’t think TA deserved to get made fun of for comparing himself to Jackie Robinson is delusional
“He should say it to my face” he said it after taking u deep 🤣
I’ll never forget being there at alds game 1 and he hit the tip of the wall missing a hr by inches and then got thrown out
Because him and the rest of the Yankees don’t run. They like to stand and watch the ball. It’s f’ing infuriating!
Never been a fan but always loved his intensity and drive. He doesn't give up.
Great video @iTalk Studios💯
The more people hate players the more I like them. It was the media hatred of A-rod that got me back into baseball. Very happy he crushed 33 homers that year and I'm an Orioles fan.
Big Os fan as well, and I was very excited for Aaron Judge!
** A-Roid
I mean it’s pretty clear especially with the newer defensive saber metrics that A-rod was better then Jeter, and definitely should have been the starting Shortstop over Jeter
@@sharpperfect4984 and A Rod was far better than Ortiz, who is in the HOF and gets a free pass for his PED use….
Josh Donaldson is my favorite player ever since he came up in Oakland
The bringer of rain has élite intensity and I personally love it !
Easily my favourite Jay when he was with us !
I love that attitude lol. “Throw the ball back. It was outside”
I like josh and its kinda nice to have a guy who dosent give af bout anything on the team
Always competitive & I think the person he’s hardest on is himself. Part of being competitive in baseball is getting in your opponents head and in that regard he succeeds mightily.
Josh is a man and I'd love to have him as my teamate in any competition. People who don't get it can miss out.
He might have a temper but he overcame his childhood. He has had some injuries this past season that affected his offense but as a 3rd baseman the man is phenomenal. He has an arm like a cannon. I personally feel he's one of the best in the business. As a lifelong Yankee fan I hope he stays in pinstripes but it's not up to me.
Donaldson is cool. Getting called "isms" and "ists" these days I automatically assume is an exaggeration if not entirely made up. I'll give Donaldson the benefit.
Loved him as a Brave. He certainly adds fire to a team. The question is, can the team take that heat??
Teams can take it as long as he performs. Unfortunately his time with the Yankees will leave a lasting impression of a guy who gets into racial controversies (even if unwarranted) and who doesn't hit. I don't see him making much money after 2023.
Donaldson is a man amongst kids, and that's that.
Sorry the guy have a lot anger issues but was a great player in his prime.
@@axelagosto5196 he takes the responsabillity for it too, that's what makes the difference between him and someone like Gerrit Cole. That's the difference between a man and a kid.
Dude is a fierce competitor and doesn't care what people think of him. Too many players are soft and could learn a thing or two from him
Yeah he is the biggest jerk
He would've been soft if Anderson had got hold of his ass
Josh isn't a jerk , just hyper motivated to perform . He dipped a bit as a Yankee this year but that doesn't make him a jerk.
Nah bro he’s a jerk, but I love it😂
Guy went from MVP to batting just over 200 and you want to say he dipped a bit...dick riding much?
@@dashpratt4097 nah. He's just him and he stands by his sht. The real mfers get the "jerk" label just because they dont act fake like LBJ does.
@Big C mans was 36 when he was signed in New York.
Dude was an absolute beast on the Blue Jays. His passion literally carried the team.
He’s still loved in Toronto to this day.
Love having his glove and arm at third. Really hope his bat wakes up this spring.
He'll be a joy to be around as his skills diminish. Which they are quite dramatically
Donaldson is a stud always has been . He's the kinda teammate you want on your side . Always has their backs
One of the worst trades Cashman ever made.
I love Josh!!! I mean it would be weird if he wasn’t good…but he has been better than average most of his career. Plus we both went to same school, many years apart but War Eagle!
Great article I think posted in Toronto years. Man is very unique. Has a massive painting of a lion in his house and it’s basically his character. I think he essentially tries to be the alpha even though he is a smaller guys. Still loved his years here and he certainly can hit.
The Jackie Robinson comment was blown out of proportion!!
A clubhouse manager told me he always parked in the handicapped spot in the players lot because “he’d been on the DL” or “baseball players aren’t handicapped”.
Absolutely loveed this guy as a Jay
When I was a kid, I thought apart of becoming an adult was to be professional, not gossip, be drama-free and be real with each other by resolving their issues with conversation with compromise and understanding.
Now that I am an adult, I notice that people are still acting like high schoolers who still need authoritative figures in their lives. Lame that even sport athletics are so dramatic.
Good video and sneaky use of the Mandalorian theme song
As a Astros fan I appreciate you calling out the bs racism claims.
I loved Donaldson when he was with my Twins. Got to meet him once at Twins Fest. Was friendly and talkative with fans. But, it's not like we really know the man.
It always comes back to Florida Man in the end
The Mandalorian music 😂😂
Haha I love Josh Donaldson. He may have peaked inflamed out rather quickly but it was a damn fun ride to watch
How this channel doesn't get copyrighted into the ground for all the Star Wars music is amazing.
You forgot to talk about his latest bat flipping. Ugghh 😂😂😂
2015 was such a good year to be a BlueJays fan
They used Palpatine’s theme and the Imperial March 😂😂😂
My impression with JD has always been that he is trying to bring the "chirp" into baseball, like how NHL players chirp at the opposition. The trouble with chirping in baseball is that you have pitchers who throw 95 mph + and so you just gotta be careful who you "chirp" about. In JD's case, he was chirping at a black player who just wanted to bring the Jackie Robinson back into baseball. JD just picked the wrong guy to chirp about.
The problem with Chirping in NHL. Is you have dudes in full pads ready to body you into a wall at full speed. They also could fight you right there on the ice, They have sticks that look like they could hurt too.
IV'E GOT MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT THAT
Donaldson has balls. The "jerks" are the ones who hurl unfounded racism charges around like it actually means something these days.
That pitch is outside asf. He a savage for telling catch to throw it back
Tim Anderson pretty much lied about him.
Machado used to be dirty for sure, but he’s matured a lot and I respect him now
Imagine getting into it with John Gibbons during your MVP year...
This video just reminded me of how much I heckin' like Donaldson. He was my favourite Jay when he played up here.
Thanks, he's now one of my favorite baseball players of all time
He did horrible this season. I remember thinking to myself that the Yankees weren’t smart when they traded for him
With Brian Cashman making decisions, there's no smart involved.
May not like Donaldson, but at least he runs out ground balls which is more than you can say about Machado.
Leading to the Benches Clearing: The Josh Donaldson Story.
He has a home in Daphne, Ala. He is a very good friend and golf buddy with my brother-in-law. He speaks highly of Josh.
In Toronto Josh Donaldson was all CLASS a great competitor and teammate and a great player
nah chill, I met JD when he was in toronto and he was so down to earth and goofy too😂
As a Texas born and raised astros fan, I think it's hilarious he told Maldonado to give up the frame and throw it back.... my opinion that's just edgy back and forth talk between guys on different teams... shoulda been a chuckle, f you, and thrown it back
What happened in his childhood is horrendous, , and it is good that he mother instilled in him an anti-victim mentality and did her best to raise him well. It clearly game him a drive to prove people wrong and become the great athlete he is today. That being said, that kind of trauma without processing it can eventually become detrimental to one's mental and physical health and can affect one's relationships with those around them. His confrontational and anti-victimhood nature could easily make him very toxic to the point that no team wants to hire him. It can also turn him into someone that won't be able to take responsibility for his own actions because that mentality won't let him believe anything is his fault. It is great that instead of turning to drugs and alcohol (as far as we know) he put his focus into sports. So many people with his background can't manage that. But I hope that has been in and/or is in therapy to work through and process that trauma. One of the actions of a mentally healthy adult (just in my opinion) is knowing how to pick your battles. Knowing what is worth fighting for and what you should just let go. It seems like Donaldson can't let anything go at all right now. Can things get heated on the diamond, sure. But it seems like there is a lot of stuff off the diamond that he just can't let go. If that is the case, hopefully he can learn to choose what is important to fight for, and what isn't.
I've heard of Florida man, but not Florida family.
It all makes sense now
Why was Brian Cashman so enamoured with Josh Donaldson that he took him off the hands of the Twins? He could have simply DFAed Gary Sanchez and he really didn’t need IKF.
I like him. I don't see any thing wrong with him tbh. Manny was throwing bats at people (him) but JD didn't do anything like that. He tells it like it is. He is not racist either. People are overly sensitive now a days and will react to anything they deem close to being racist. Dude called himself jackie and donaldnson was just doubling down on that. As for calling out umpires, they need accountability. I'm for showing bad calls on the jumbo tron so everyone sees it, just like they do on TV. That way the shitty ump can see where the zone is since he cant see it in front of his face and get better.
I remember when Kyle Seager won his Gold Glove, Donaldson tweeted out a series of clown emojis. Real classy.
Yet another great video man. Your talent is severely underrated.
Pretty sure every Red Sox fan still says Machado is the biggest jerk, but A Rod is still king jerk
I love Josh Donaldson
If u have the nerve to refer to yourself as Jackie Robinson, u best expect to get clowned on and called Jackie in a mocking way. it has nothing to do with race. Lotta virtue signaling going on. I like Tim Andersen but I just dont agree... Donaldson may be an asshole and he maybe shouldn't have said anything because of how people like to spin the narrative nowadays. However, I believe calling him racist is a fucking reach
The team loved him in Toronto
I had the whole section riding him when he was at Toronto vs Baltimore during that riff with Machado we had first row rt at 3rd base. Actually now hearing his story of his early life has similar parallels to my own life....unfortunately I wasn't able to break cycle and went to prison myself a lifetime ago it seems edit note that although their riff started when he was an A there was more drama with Machado this video completely changed my respect level but now hes a Yankee
As a person who has interviewed him and had conversation he was very nice to me . He actually gave my platform time and I’m black. I know it was some stuff between him and Tim and I think he felt bad about it
His childhood appears to have resulted in irreparable damage. However mental heath has taken huge strides. Someone close to him or for that matter any of the 5 teams he played for were obliged to try to get him help. Donaldson could never do it-he never thought he was emotionally off base.
Great acquisition, Cashman! You're keeping up your legacy of utter incompetence.
How did it take me almost 10 minutes to realize the Imperial Death March was playing in the background?
