Lenny Dykstra - Walking Disaster (You Have to Watch This)

[USNDeepsea1991]

Americans love to build them up and then pull them down. Lenny sounds like he's on drugs. I hope he gets the help he needs.

[ajsvoice]

Hey! This dick does not seen young to me.

[chinarthoughts]

On August 25, 2011, Dykstra was charged with indecent exposure. The Los Angeles City Attorney accuses Dykstra of placing ads on Craigslist requesting a personal assistant or housekeeping services. The victims allege when they arrived, they were informed that the job also required massage service and then Dykstra would disrobe and he would expose himself.

[Vinhcredible]

First Weiner, now Dickstra! Bahahahaha!

[69heheh69]

lenny dykstra is a poor mans charlie sheen

[w99brain]

31 million in debt with 50k in assets...genius!!!

[WorldGreatest1]

LOL Lenny Dykstra, one of the greats *dies*

[jxsilicon9]

LMAO!!!!!! A $10k dog and $75 in your pocket.

[jxsilicon9]

Yea follow investment advice from a washed up baseball player. It sounds like he did pretty well running a business. He was stupid to try and mess with stocks.

[144wychwood]

How fucking sad is this. Used to love the way that guy played. What the frick happened?

[Orjmart]

Taking from Wikipedia:

On June 6, 2011, Dykstra was arrested and charged with 25 misdemeanor and felony counts of grand theft auto and possession of cocaine, ecstasy, and the human growth hormone, Somatropin. He plead not guilty to the charges on June 16, with a trial date set of July 11.

[Andreas748]

A cryin shame.

[ERRR09]

POS



[mertz56]

@seka1986 no cutter here

[reneebeaudry]

@ 7:30 - He's high on meth - I'm sure everyone is real jealous of "nails" the meth head who's broke. Looks like life is kicking Lenny's ass like my Blue Jays did in '93...FAIL

[mertz56]

@simplygu your jealous of nails also because he lives like a rockstar, your prob a fat nig with no job on ebt that's lives with your mom and has 3 kids with 3 baby mamas

[StuUngar]

@mertz56 Is that you Mr. Dykstra? What do you think about that flight attendant who sued you?

[mertz56]

This guy is just jealous of nails, Lenny is the man go fuck your mother

[seka1986]

@mertz56 Is your name Cutter?

[202pdiddy]

Jim Kramer is a clown.

[202pdiddy]

This is sad. He seems intoxicated.

[simplygu]

What an arrogant piece of shit Dykstra is. Listen to him talk, he is on something. Talk about being in denial and self destructing. What a loser!!

[nukeasfinest96792]

Lenny Dykstra is a con man point blank.

[lilze96]

LOL "He's one of the great ones...one of the great ones!"

[seka1986]

NAILS

[Jay20782]

Cenk's impression of Dykstra was spot-on, hilarious!! Good segment.

[kellykinsellives]

who is this moron, hosting this segment? what a joke for a host.

[bangitslo]

@kellykinsellives Joke? He's been offered his own Network T.V. show. He's the best!!!!

[kellykinsellives]

@bangitslo yeah a show that no one watches. he'll be cancelled within a year. the guy is an idiot. what is on, some idiot channel like msnbc or something?

[bangitslo]

@kellykinsellives What do you think of Glenn Beck? Tell me.

[kellykinsellives]

@bangitslo I don't like beck either but he is not nearly as much of a joke as this Turk moron. Beck's conspiracy theories can be outlandish but sometimes have a ring of truth. This turk guy is just plain stupid and boring

[bangitslo]

@kellykinsellives Well we have different opinions. I respect yours. That's what makes the world go round.

[mgallarza]

This is an interesting story, but the host is so damn obnoxious!

[bangitslo]

@mgallarza The Host is funny as Hell. The Young Turks rule !!

[TallVape]

Young Jerks hate America. Cenk is a big, ugly, slob.

[moleqle]

Just what everybody needs, an obnoxious giggling fool wannabe reporter. If anyone with any amount of respect for human dignity who listens to this garbage and feels anything but disgust for this smarmy young twit, then you're just another drop of idiocy in the vast ocean of moronic masses. Congratulations you good excuse for eugenics.

[Daelyas]

This ran on German TV a couple of years ago. I saw this and thought it was some cheesy MTV reality show. Jesus Christ dude! Its a real movie? Just painful... and really funny! Maybe because I can't relate to baseball being a european. But this would also be funny with a soccer player. What a train wreck man... sad day for sports. Sad.

[matthewmercury1]

"Oh, and who lost the fight? It wasn't Lenny...."

Get a fucking life.

[oyindw]

eat your words TYT Fuck TYT

[oyindw]

eat your words TYT

[frankiebaby725]

I I dislike Lenny, but I really hate Cenk.

[fosbury68]

Fuck the printers

Fuck the flight attendants

Hey check out this $10,000 dog.

Looks like I'm still flyin' pretty fuckin' high - and I'm flying HIGH-ER.

[hotheadedjoelhaha]

Hey Dick head, check Lenny out Today! He has won Every law suit and is doing Freaking Great. Young Turk Loser!

[herogt350]

@hotheadedjoelhaha lol, lenny just got arrested 3 days ago in LA county jail, and has a 500k bail. wtf are you talking about?

[422Krazy]

Im a HUGE NY Mets fan but I dont care if you won 20 World Series rings with the Amazin Mets, if you go to phillies then your shit in my book.  Thats sooo true when this guy says a name gets you anywhere in life.

[RyanSharp]

OK, I'm no money expert, but I gotta question anybody who would trusted Lenny Dykstra with their finances. Seriously, just listen to the guy speak. He sounds like a joke, saying stuff like "Look at these bitchin' marble floors!", as opposed to actual grown up talk.

[BoSoxnation1972]

@RyanSharp Agreed. Lenny Dykstra financial genius? More like Lenny from Of Mice and Men.

[Renagade70]

What a shame, Lenny is f**ked up on drugs. He couldn't speak a sentence to Goldberg.

[SupplantThis]

every member of his immediate family has either sued him or divorced him.

[MarketsandPolitics]

He's flying higher cuz he's all coked up

[coka5841]

i laughed so hard young turks. i see what you were doing and i think it was epic

[FiberMania]

Lenny Dykstra is a heart attack looking for a place to happen. Lenny is a lost soul in desparate need of Christ.

[coka5841]

@FiberMania

christ who? he better be a lawyer who can get dykstra out of the irs debt.

jesus ain't helping this fool

[AvisWrentmore]

Boy was he HIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[AvisWrentmore]

He has NO HEART

[Scarpsad]

I love the way Cenk says "Fuck the flight attendant"

[fabio1456]

sounds like hes druged up

[Drumtryp86]

YOU ARE AN ASS...........It was obvious in 06 at the 20 year reunion he was struggling.............hope u get paid well tool..........u have media talent..try doing something good with it....or maybe , HELP A MAN.....despite who they "were"

[Whisper6911]

KRIJG KANKER EN STERF MET JE FUCKING KANGER REKLAME!

[KangaKucha]

mets suck, move to brookln where you belong.

[StyngRay1]

What is more shocking is what the hell is wrong with Cramer! He is going from clown shill for wall street fatcats to a street hustler. :)

S

[Ryan1111111able]

Dykstra is in Denial

[ajushi10]

Can you hear the slurring of words it sounds like the Punch Drunk syndrome that boxers go thru. The Problem is called CTE Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy does Lenny have that or was he high. Or both? A sad shadow of Nails if he ever was Nails, because nails don't need steroids. a$10,000 dog? When he was counting money he looked loaded as Hell!!!!!On what who knows but Lenny you got issues!!!!!

[utubeworms]

There's gonna be a lot of empty mansions when Obama is through with us.

[goback3spaces]

Sad. I remember when he hit a homer off Mario Soto in his second major league at-bat. He was more thrilled than anyone in the stands. Mets fans who remember that game will know what I mean.

[goldenshots]

LMFAO 8:55 to 9:04

[mobmusic76]

ok it's official...i like this guy...this is the third great piece i have watched.

[trektothetroops]

He isn't legal to drive anymore and he is trying to get people to drive him around and promises him money plus benefits. You can tell he is drugged up or something, he wants someone to drive him around and be around at his call 24 hours a day.

[NJTank]

I feel sorry for Nails, I hope he gets his life back in order.

[spagandtuna]

How sad. He was an exciting, undersized player who made the most of his lack of natural talent and size for part of his baseball career but is now probably marking the days toward total demise. I hope his impending end (in 2-4 years?) will be a quiet, peaceful one. He is pure poison.

[dzanier]

That's a good way of putting it. His family wants nothing to do with him. I've run out of negative words to describe him.

[spagandtuna]

@dzanier Yeah, I remember watching him play when he was with the Mets. I had a build similar to his but no way as muscular, but had I as a kid conceived of the possibility that with such dedication I might have made it in baseball, I think I would have gone for it. No more the inspiration for smaller guys, the sad thing now is not about what he threw away, but how he seems very happy to drag everyone down as well. Enough of him.

[dzanier]

I would almost classify him as psychotic. He cares about nobody other than himself. I think those roids and piankillers went to his head. He was always proud to be low class white trash, but he's now reaching new levels of scumbaggery. If you didn't know any better better you'd think the Rolling Stones had him in mind when they wrote "Jumpin Jack Flash".

[spagandtuna]

@dzanier Is there any up to the minute news re his status?

[BnC112]

maybe wally backman will give lenny a job

[jimmynorton1001]

another non intelligent stab from the untalented libs

[coka5841]

dykstra like the rest of the 86 mets are lucky assholes...

thats all they are LUCKY

[PhilosophicalViking]

Typical of a baseball player of the moment! I feel sorry for him. A lot of former-baseball players get used, abused and toss out. Being on painkillers is no fun,(I've got a shattered spine) and I'm stuck on them. However, people will see and hear what you put out there. If he's not an asshole he should come out with his story.(I admit I'm a METS fan) Look whether he did it himself or not, a lot of these players of sub-greatness get themselves into situations they have no control over..

[SinfulMessiah]

Lenny is a jerk and a drug addict. He often stays at a hotel I work at and is always drunk and high. He never tips anyone and ALWAYS uses someone else's credit card.

[SPORTSTIME100]

this goldberg CLOWN IS EVIL AND WAS JEALOUS OF LENNY EVIL OLD FART JUST LISTEN TO HIM WHAT A ASSHOLE.

[SPORTSTIME100]

and LOOK AT THAT RED EVIL JEW MAKING FUN OF LENNY MOCKING HIM WHAT A ASSHOLE.

[redwinmedia]

These tools have about as much right to criticize Lenny Dykstra as they do to post footage from HBO. Zero.

...and then they have the cajones to put "commercials" at the top of this clip! (...the backdrop behind this dude is SO PROFESSIONAL!)

[PychoJetBlack]

wow I live in Simi Valley where the carwash is

i never knew lenny dykstra actually visited the area

[palinisafrgginjoke]

Roids + a sucker= recipe for disasterr

[Darahcos]

My favorite part "When we talk about money, it's never a game, I take money very seriously. A lot of people will pay $400 000 for a house, I paid it for a car"

Yeah that is taking money really serious and being responsible >.>

[albear972]

@Darahcos Isn't that super ironic? I laughed when I heard that too.

[STU676]

dykstra is a goof

[ShaytanBozorg]

Why are the liberals attacking Lenny Dykstra so much?

[merocket]

cause he's a buffoon.

[patetico100]

I thought it was obvious.

[ShaytanBozorg]

What a bullshit comment. Don't waste my time.

[ericynot]

Because he's a drunken jerk who rips off everyone he comes in contact with.

[Eaglesfaninca]

I grew up a Philadelphia Phillies fan. I shook Lenny Dykstra's hand at an autograph signing in 1993 after they lost the world series, "You are my favorite player" I told him. I was a 12 year old little leaguer and he was my hero.

Now he defrauded his brothers, and even his Mother.

Lenny Dykstra you are no hero, you are an ASSHOLE!

[tirobiz]

Jim Cramer was speaking about Lenny's stock picks. He wasn't vouching for his overall financial picture. You would have known that if you paid a little attention to the video.

[east1410]

Lenny and Pete Rose can go into biZ together. How about Lenny gives Pete some cash from his wallet and they place a few bets on baseball. Petes not getting into the hall anyways so WTF?

[drinkinyourmilkshake]

"That's when I said, this will never happen again........."

lol.

Well, just once more, but THEN, never again :-)

What a tool.

It figures Cramer would endorse him. That's the final "Nail" (in the coffin).

[caganb]

A fool and his money shall soon part

[franzpolak]

he pawned his ring a month ago.

[daveromm]

que lo venda ahora no importa que el esta vivo y el lo nesecita, cuando el se muera los vende otro y se queda con el dinero de el. son de el y el hace lo que quiero, nada es nada en la vida y eso el lo deja cuando muera.

[glamourknight]

I have no judgements on Mr. Dykstra as a person, but "F-- the printers, F-- the flight attendant" is not a business model by any means.. Jim Kramer told people to buy into it? I can't believe that after years of giving bad advice , he still retains his job on TV.

[cupwithhandles]

poor guy - feel sorry for him in a way.

[jnglelnd]

I would love to see the jerk off, who by the way nobody knows who he is would say these things to lenny, He has been fighting an up hill battle his whole life, And has made quite a name for himself, People will always love lenny no matter how much money he has, He's a fighter, and will survive

[albear972]

He was humilliated going from 2 million to 400K? how is he feeling going from 10 million to -55 million? and what a clown, "athletes should never sell their rings, well, this guy's rings were sold this weekend" Lenny, you suck man. I'd rather have a bum be my accountant than you.

[swantonoffatev1]

That name sounds like a Kenny Dykstra rip-off name lol

[cyclohexane1]

Lenny kind of looks like a high functioning retard. The way he talks, his demeanor. Ehh... he was a good ball player though, wtf happened

[gitsirius]

The American dream......A fool and his money, soon parted.....He seems high on pills.

[deyoungparker]

Oh shit, he did not just pull out a wad of cash and start thumbing through it.

That was EPIC.

[zinkerled]

He obviously has mental problems. Don't make fun.

[coke209]

Lenny's the MAN!! although it sure looks like he's BiPolar...they shouldn't take his world series ring.

[digitalshay]

..fuck that flight attendant.. :) lol hes such a mess..i feel so bad for him..not! big time opiate usage goin on there..

[shauntampa]

dykstra imo was one of the all time greats. Hustle, hustle, and more hustle.

[jackhitts08]

This is not real...is it?

[monkeyboy8me]

this loser new yorker is a fag , what a homo your a great broadcaster

[viperx1977]

only in america kick a fuker when hes down good job !! !wankys keep looking for the bombs hahahaa

[oagras]

What a delusional freak this Dykstra is. What comes around.............goes around Lenny. Have fun living in your car. By the way. What does Liberal or Conservative have to do with bashing an asshole that squandered his fortune.

[zinkerled]

'then he took a year off to master the stock market'

That's an instant classic.

[30percentplusreturns]

This is what liberals do. They hate seeing people successful. Liberals like this guy have to bash dykstra to feel good. When other people fail, they feel rewarded. This is why liberals are pathetic. Dykstra worked hard, and went bankrupt. So what. The guy tried and never gave up. I have to hand it to him. To sit here and bash the guy just shows the character of this liberal.

[carloz1]

Yeah, You would never see a conservative make fun of someone. Like mocking someone with Parkison's disease..... Liberals mean, conservatives nice. Me like.

[jezdukowski]

BOO HOO! Crying little right wing pussy. F you.

[mrsmk444]

way to kick a guy when he's down.....what do you do besides broadcast on youtube about other peoples sorrow. How about you get a real job douche bag

[amp1616]

the poor guy is dillusional ...yeah hes flying high alright. .. poor guy its pitiful

[arcomn]

Lenny looks, sounds, and acts drunk here. One major meltdown!!!

[Thomistica]

Sad story there...

[cbarrett34]

lenny is broke now

[kabeerajameela]

Dykstra and Rose suck balls. Jeter plays hard WITHOUT being an asshole.

[Trinnztubefun]

wow I just feel bad for him...

[TraderDelta]

Show some respect for a great baseball player. It breaks my heart that it came to this for the guy, but if you're going to bash him as a business man, make sure you give him props as a man that played baseball with a lot heart and played to win, like Pete Rose. There are not many like that in baseball.

[Leadman1989]

so sad

didn't his son get drafted hopefully they'll be ok

[njswampz]

Dykstra was the heart of the 86 Mets champ season. Batted leadoff. Played centerfield. Great player. Fearless. Tough as "nails" indeed.

[JetsSuck2008]

I think he is drunk! Looks like he is an alcoholic.

[Rashaed]

I wish it was that simple! Thats aftermath of roids!!!

[idster7]

a year to master the stock market? i'd be a master 9 times over then.

[yoyolaxer]

prolonged effects of steroids

[luvs2teach00]

Money is at the root of all EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[citodave]

Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the leper's bell of an approaching looter.

Ayn Rand

[livingeasi]

Is that a Mercedes Benz on the right side at exactly 1:37?

[arcomn]

Lenny is brain dead! Something real realy wrong here!

[luvs2teach00]

I couldn't stand him as a player. But don't listen to be I'm a Braves fan.

[jbaev]

Its not funny to make fun of the mentally disabled.

[nrsims]

Thats so sad. :-(

[luvs2teach00]

I think that he is mentally ill or special ed. When I use special ed, I'm not making fun of him.

[LaughingManRa]

Jon Stewart did a hilarious segment about this on the Daily Show the other day. :-)

[renzotera]

haha he prob invested everything in the stocks right before they all crashed, though I have to admit he was pretty stupid to leave the door open, I would be sooooo pissed if some camera crew walked into my house (haha he could buy that house but not a lock for the door rofl)

[withoutasong]

google an article called "YOU THINK YOUR JOB SUCKS? TRY WORKING FOR LENNY DYKSTRA"

[jagxx9]

This video commentary is spot on. Let me summarize..."It was all Bullshit"..."Don't believe the media hype". Let me now translate... Dykstra didn't make millions building carwashes, it was all Bull Shit!... All the Dykstra laudatory self promotion that was parroted by the media was Bull Shit! Few in the media do any research to verify financial claims, they just regurgitate what is feed to them by the subject.

[Broyale26]

Poor Lenny..

I guess "it" happened again....

[HIPHOPexclusivez]

"in his 40's"

wow he looks/talks like hes 60

darn roidz

[daveelderdotcom]

Hey, Cenk,

I love your political stuff, but this is one of your best non-political pieces. Really good stuff! Keep on Turkin'!

[arcomn]

In the spirit of VH1 behind the music..Lenny is no longer on drugs, he's quit consuming alcohol, and he's back in the recording studio...yeah, along with Leif Garrett and Danny Bonaduce!!!

[klard]

So who is the bigger hoax? Lenny Dykstra or Jim Cramer.

[fostereric]

Jim Cramer for sure... "he's one of the greatest.. one of the greatest" haha

Warren Buffett would be considered the greatest, not Lenny

Cramer makes more money from his show, not the market

[dcopley51]

klard: Jim Cramer is the bigger fraud!! At least Lenny didn't have a TV show hawking his bullshit!

[Zoomania]

If there was an entry in an encyclopedia called "What is wrong with America", it would have Lenny Dykstra's picture next to it.

[withoutasong]

5:04 ....I doubt him and his little roid-jock view of the world and I am laughing now, so fuck Lenny and his ponzi schemes

[zadkiel04]

F*ck the flight attendant!!!! lmfao

[withoutasong]

v=CkFcP6HKwFA

[YoungDoGood]

Stewart (or someone on his staff) must watch your show

[p20]

This video was excellent..

This guy was humuliated by loosing money to his broker, so he takes revenge by ripping everyone else off. How sad his players club was nothing more than a way to suck money out of athletes....

and

Jim Cramer has no credibility...

[altondesu]

Yeah Stewart just blew this up!
