My heart hurt watching your 30 for 30 because I knew you weren't where you wanted to be. My heart was full watching this video. Very emotional for me. So inspiring. You may not have the papers but you're a real doctor to many. Thank you for sharing your story.

[@BeyBrightOfficial]

Man.. I always loved Doc Gooden even through all of his problems. As a native New Yorker growing up as a teenager in the early and mid eighties, Doc and the Mets were phenomenal to watch! I’m so glad that Dwight and Darryl are doing well now because they were magical baseball players! I still think they are hall of fame players based on their impact on baseball and their contributions to World Series baseball teams! I know they may never be inducted into Cooperstown but hey.. I saw them in real time for the Yankees and the Mets! Legendary! 💯

[@Dan-tt8sn]

Same here bro. Became a fan in 1986 and it baffles me how good they were in spite of all the partying. Imagine how good they both would’ve been if they never got involved with the junk. Scary.

[@Dan-tt8sn]

As a lifelong Mets fan since 86, thank you for this interview Vlad. You’ve been hitting home runs lately. No pun intended.

[@BlackNatGeo]

Vlad hit another home run with this interview !!!

[@nathanielreid-jm5cq]

Totally agree !!

[@Dan-tt8sn]

1:21:35 man I know this exact feeling. Feel like this often and almost died by my own hands and felt the exact same way. No matter how badly you don’t want to be here anymore, it’s still hard to pull the trigger and I just didn’t know why it was so hard, as miserable as I get sometimes. It’s just in our natural makeup as a living being to resist dying by any means necessary, no matter how hopeless you feel.

[@jacobkemper4086]

I was not a pitcher. I couldn't relate to Doc like Straw.... but I admired him. Great interview!

[@Den-xq1fn]

This man was the best pitcher in baseball for 3 years! Just a phenom! Dr K!

[@cesarbriones2419]

I’m so glad he is sober. You can tell this guy never never should’ve been under the influence of cocaine. He’s such a nice shy person still I’m glad he got his life together again.

Doc & Straw, two kids who took the road less traveled and came thru it as outstanding men.

Never heard a reporter or player say a bad word about Doc Gooden as a person. He was a good guy who NYC just chewed up and spit out. Such talent, such demons, and I think a good guy. Happy he seems well.

[@earlmierez]

Amazing interview. The fight never ends. Doc was blessed with a rare gift and only few people have accomplished the feats he has. The man has and still is conquering his demons but must be celebrated also for his perseverance. 🙏🏿👍🏿

As a New Yorker, the popular strip clubs back then on queens boulevard were Goldfingers, Lost Battalion, Naked City, and Wiggles. 1:19:22. I’ve been to Wiggles and Naked City back then. Wonder if he went to one of those. Imagine going there and seeing your favorite team’s best pitcher doing coke. Haha

mental injury is permanent . VLAD you will NEVER understand what it is to be pulled over by cops and brutally harassed. Stop counting pockets, minimizing the affects of a victim of police bruatlity by passifying this Living Legend's story/interaction with the Tampa police. Champ, Doc Dwight Gooden you are relevant and an ICONIC sport baseball legend. thank you for sharing YOUR story.

[@KeysToTheCastleMusic]

I'm so tired of the "White MLB players didn't hit against black pitchers!" nonsense! Stop it! There is no evidence that black pitchers are better than white pitchers at any point in the history of baseball. A great pitcher is a great pitcher! Babe Ruth played against Negro League players in barnstorming exhibition games and he did great against them. He did just as well or better against them than he did against MLB pitchers.

[@byronh5806]

This is an old argument. Get over it. Tell blacks kids to play baseball and snack dads to coach

01:15:38 "That year you won the Silver Slugger award" Vlad knows NOTHING about baseball.

[@Dan-tt8sn]

Dwight Gooden was a pretty good hitting pitcher and did indeed win a silver slugger award for the pitching position in 1992, where he batted .264, with a HR, 3 doubles, and even a triple. Lol. As a Mets fan, I vividly remember that home run. It was a two run shot in a close game against the Giants. There were no Ohtanis back then, so those stats were impressive for a pitcher. Still not sure if Vlad thought this was some sort of pitching award though, in which case you’re correct and that’s hilarious that he wouldn’t know that.

[@milart12]

@@Dan-tt8sn Haha. That was indeed my point. Not sure if Doc even remembered that he won the Silver Slugger award.
