Randy Johnson is in town for his physical, but things got a little out of hand when a CBS 2 camera caught up with the future Yankee on the way to the doctor's office.
Monday morning, in midtown on Madison Avenue between 58th and 59th streets, CBS2 cameraman Vinny Everett shot some video of Johnson, a standard procedure with a big-name athlete coming to town.
The security representative with Johnson put his hand on our camera, and swiped it away. He and Johnson then both yelled at Everett, saying, "Don't get in my face.....don't talk back to me!"

Ah, that's right. The answer to my question above is the Mets.
Ahem...Have the Mets even gotten to .500 since Hitlery became NY Senator?
Now THAT'S a "curse."
The Rangers and Islanders are playing like they're cursed too, come to think of it. And the Knicks? Been cursed since 1974. The Bills? Forever. Jets? They lose big next week.
Well I'll be...
Heck, the Isles have been "cursed" since what -- 1980? The Knicks since '73, and the Mets actually since '86.
I guess for the Knicks it WAS '74.
A classic website!!!
The Isles won Cups from '80 - '83. Best team I ever saw. .....outside of the Oilers from the mid-80s, I suppose.
The Knicks still lead the Atlantic playing .500 ball, I see. Pathetic. When's the last time they had a white starter, btw? Kiki?
However, I doubt that he's anywhere near the same league as Roger Clemens, as far as failed anger management is concerned.
It will sure be fun to watch though! :D
Was Kiki ever a starter? I used to work with his sister -- she had some of THE wildest stories. ;D
....and that appears to be the only season he started for the 'Bockers.
THE wildest stories. ;D
Do tell ;)
Still, it ought to be pretty cool, either way.
-good times, G.J.P.(Jr.)
Nope -- don't want to be sued for slander or libel, although at least some of what I heard turned out to be true. ;D
Not on the big board, silly.
LOL
That's very funny.
Clemmons di not leave Boston or New York because of his anger management situation. IT WAS HIS WIFE. Both teams tired of her attacks on Tiffany, Fortunoff or whosever employees incurred her unjustified wrath...
This is going to be a fun year. The mad photographer with the Yankees, and the most manic ex-Red Sox since Clemens starting for the Mets.
I do think that reneging on his promise to close out his career with the Yankees tarnished whatever reputation Clemons had tried to build, over the course of his career, as a professional.
