  • 11:43 does that bat look like a toy bat

  • FUCK THIS 60MIN BULL SHITT EVERYTIME I WATCH ONE OF THESE VIDEOS IT TAKE FOREVVVVER FOR IT TO LOAD!!!!!

  • ANGELS ARE BETTER THAN Cardinals

  • @StrongSonic LOL, I'm a die hard fan and I must say I'm glad he passed no the $26M for 5 year deal. He's not gonna keep up what he has and I love the fact he hit .299, so there goes his .300 seasons. Leave a team with 11 WS wins for a team that has 1, makes total sense to me. We'll be just fine in STL and still should compete tops in NL Central. "I don't care what people think about me" <-- says it all about the man

  • U mad St. Louis??

  • even though he is now an angel and in California doesn't mean he doesn't care about those kids he is amazing on and off the field and will always be

  • Watched Albert in tempe for a week. Love that he is on the Angels. But serious he is kinda a dick to fans.

  • And now he's left all those kids behind because he just wanted to be more of a millionaire in California.

  • @jmik58

    St louis Cards didn't want him bro.

  • 18 Cardinal fans couldn't stand Pujols going to the Angels

  • Who would dislike this video?

  • Why the hate? You didn't need to watch this, and you don't need to watch him playing Baseball if you don't like him.

    Clearly, he's doing more for others than any of you are, and he's also one of the brightest starts in professional sports. I'm not even sure what flaws anybody is detecting with one of the most productive and clean baseball careers ever, a flawless social stature even after his St. Louis departure, and he helps others a great amount.

    Sincerely, Bleed-Red Phils Fan

  • i just got back from the dominican on a service trip around puerto plata and its really sad there. we not only visted a shanty town like this, but also worked alot at an orphanage for disabled children and visited a haitian community that lived in a landfill. people really need to know more about these kinds of people and im glad a figure like albert is stepping up

  • This is what being a sports star is all about!!!

  • cant say enough about albert. Cant wait til he's hitting 250 in 2017. hope the angels like paying him to be overpaid. hope all the hispanics like getting rucked!

  • he is just posing and im a cardinal fan

  • I HOPE CUBANS HATERS SEE THIS

  • DOMINICAN THE BEST

  • what an awesome guy

  • not babe ruth, not joe dimmagio, not ted williams, not my ballsack

  • Jeter wouldn't ever do this.. and im a yankee fan

  • Somebody should show this video to Milton Bradley and Niger Morgan

  • for a cardinals fan................. i expect a great heart but this is more.. i don't care if hes not a card anymore (wish he was) but what he does for the kids is just remarkable.

  • This guy is incredible

  • Only Jesus can do that ..

  • @joe79342 only jesus brother

  • is so funny how he is sitting on that little ass chair

  • May God grant Albert many years!

  • Albert pujols is just a amazing person he gives out of himself so much so children that have problems that most of us dont ...this is why he inspires me and also he is a really good player

  • WHAT HAS HE DONE WRONG:NOTHING SO CARDS FANS STOP CRYING!!!!!!!!

  • Yea he was poor now hes a multi millionare, i still like him tho go albert!

  • I feel kinda bad how he batted .299 and 99 RBIs this year

  • @mets968 still performed pretty well in the playoffs

  • He's about to learn what it's like to not play baseball in STL.

    Good luck, Mr. Pujols.

  • GREATEST PLAYER EVER, AS A STL GUY THIS IS VERY SAD

  • "He says he wants to be a cardinal forever"

  • classy just classy

  • the onky reason he went to the angles is because LaRussa retired

  • Cardinals forever?

  • Cardinals.... why? I thought you were smarter than that. You frustrate me -.-

  • god bless u

    

  • wow it just said he wanted to be a cardinal forever...... now he plays for the angels!!?!?! smh!!

  • Albert is my 2nd or 3rd cousin.NO JOKE. His wife is my Aunts cousin.

  • As sad as it is that he's leaving St. Louis, at least he went out on top, like Tony La Russa. He'll go into the HOF as a Cardinal for what he did with them, and even if he breaks the all-time HR record and gets his 3000 hits, he'll never be as beloved and adored in LA as he was in St. Louis. It's a shame, but that's baseball today. Best of luck to you, Albert. I'll definitely be watching you more now, especially when the Angels face the Yankees.

  • So you'll try to win another world series with the angels? let us know how that turns out...well be at the finish line looking down on you with puma, rally squirell, and David Freese

  • @huSTLer3293 but he is a good guy

  • @huSTLer3293 you my friend are funny.

  • You know what Angels fans and gay guys have in common? They both like Poo-holes!

  • @CharlesBartowskiHere lmfaoooooooo

  • @Nxsmo Yeah that's actually an old joke that made the rounds here in St.Louis years ago,i just changed the team.It's a much funnier joke to me now than it was when he played for the Cards.

  • LETS GO ANGELS!!!

  • LOL. He's got a Michael Jordan Autograph Poster in his man cave along with his trophies and memorabilia.

  • I love the Cardinals and I am still a Pujols fan. Why wouldn't someone be after seeing this?

  • @PackersFan612 Ik I am a big Cardinals fan and a really big Albert fan. I cried and cried when i heard he left btw im 15 years old. I am like his number 1 fan and im still going to be a fan of Albert and keep up with his stats.

  • @casonpunk96 Me too. I hate it when people call him "greedy" or "selfish". I'm 19 so I remember the Cardinals before him, but he is still the best player I have ever seen. I hope the Cardinals retire his number.

  • Greetings from Saint Louis!!

  • Absoutely remarkable the only real knock on his career is going to be that he dug his foot into the ground to be paid lol

  • I lived in St.Louis from 5 to 14 and not once of those years did I like the Cards!!!

    Go Angels

  • 17 dislikes = STL fans

  • Thats awesome. Hes an angel now

  • look how scronnie he used to be and look at him now DAMN

  • As sad as it is to see him go it was a great ride with Albert in STL. Now he can continue to help out these kids with his 250 mil contract. Congrats LA you got who will be the greatest player of all time

  • I live in SoCal, I don't see how anyone could be mad at Albert, The best player in Baseball for the past few years, who has been vastly underpaid his whole career. Anyone who criticizes the man should fuck off.

    Obviously I'm a huge Angels fan, I've always said Pujols was my favorite player in Baseball & supported him while on the Cardinals. I'll be watching closely now.

  • pujols Welcome to the Angels of anaheim!

  • We are truly blessed to have Albert in LA.... Welcome!

  • @bruinjer OC...

  • @bruinjer in 2017 the Angels are moving to L.A so same thing

  • Comment removed

  • the incredible man who cares about nothing but money. i still have respect for him being as good a ball player he is but as a i really dont.

  • Thank you for leaving the National League!!!

  • I am happy for him to be Angels... This inspire me alot of happiness.. I cannot wait to go to ballpark... Wooooo :-D

  • Comment removed

  • Wow! An inspiration. This would be worth watching again.

  • Great ballplayer. Better human being.

  • he left for money when he said before he doesnt care about the money....ok so then if you figure out California taxes he will be making less than what he would have if he stayed...im speechless

  • What an inspiration. My HERO is now on MY TEAM. This is a dream come true.

  • Ive lost about half my feelings for him (no homo) Ill never feel the same way for him again it's gonna be hard to see him In an Angels uniform but none the less I will still try too support him BUT just him I could care less about the rest of the Angels Im still a die hard Cards fan no mater what and im still certain we will be competitive next year especially if we can get Beltran

  • Goodbye Albert. You're the best ever.

  • How could anyone dislike this!!???

  • There's no way he should have ever been the 3rd highest paid player on his team, welcome to the angels where they see the value of your abilities

  • & this is why Albert Pujols inspires me & is still my favorite baseball player of all-time, despite him not bein' a Cardinal anymore. You're gonna have the haters, but I'm not one of them. Best of Luck in Anaheim Albert, still got my support, no matter what!

  • Stop being haters, just think about how many people he will help with all that money.

  • I do think it is a little odd to say "I want to be a Cardinal forever" and then sign with Anaheim but you know what, MONEY TALKS. Period. Look at all the hardship he has endured in his life, look at all the help he gives to those who are not as fortunate. More money will allow him to continue his philanthropy on an even greater level. Only thing I think he did wrong was say "I want to be a cardinal forever" and was that was too premature, other than that God Bless him. Dominicans support you!

  • @DominicanOps What does he have to say to the down syndrome community in St. Louis? They absolutely ADORE him here. And he is just gonna leave them behind for some money. He is a sad, greedy man. Leaving behind hundreds of thousands of people who were behind him no matter what. I hope he realize LA won't be so kind if he starts to struggle...

  • @cardsforlife He'll have more money from the Angels to spend on the "down syndrome" community. Think it through.

  • @cardsforlife Cards, are you kidding me right now? So he is supposed to stay in St. Louis because fans with down syndrome adore him? "Gonna leave them behind"? There is no way you can be THAT NAIVE. To call him a "sad, greedy man" after all he has done for your team shows you are a sad bitter fan. Money talks period. We all would have done the same is presented with the opportunity. Stop pretending.

  • sell out....

  • @01Lude01 Sell out how? Because he helps people and has fun doing what he does?

  • Alberts nothing but a sell out st. louis made him who is and this is how he treats them. Remember his speach about its not about the money for him and what a christian man he is hes a money grubbing whore like the rest of them.

  • @mikemcghee1969 I think his talent and great work ethic made him who he is. Also, he put up insane stats at a bargain cost AND helped the Cards win 2 WS. He didn't owe them anything more. If you want to be mad, be mad at the Cards ownership. They should have locked him up to another extension BEFORE he hit FA. You let him hit FA and the risk is too great. Instead, they had to give a lot of cash to Holliday

  • Welcome to the Angels!

  • @Boston15Man Fuck the angels.

  • @stlcardinalsfan202 I'm not an Angels fan. I'm just so surprised that he left St. Louis.

  • @Boston15Man FUCK YOU!!

  • @aviator259 Are you a Cardinals fan?

  • Even as a St. Louisan and Cardinals fan, I couldn't stay angry at him for long. I'm gonna miss him...even as good as he is, his departure isn't nearly enough to stop the Cardinals from being a contending team...they won the World Series mostly without him. However, Cardinals baseball will not be the same without one of the best players of all time. I'm fighting back tears as I watch this video. This is the hardest pill I've had to swallow as a sports fan.

  • Where you gonna go when half of California riots

  • April can't come soon enough!

  • Missouri or beautiful Southern California?

    It was a simple choice.

  • Like it really matters....I mean you spend half of the season on the road and in the offseason he moves back to the Dominican @tonsoffunii

  • @tonsoffunii no brainer!

  • Welcome to Anaheim!

  • @DatGuyFromWendys congratulations! while we got the his prime years, you will be paying twice as much to get his shittiest years! have fun. glad we didnt resign him, greedy.

  • @DatGuyFromWendys He will do great things there too.

  • @DatGuyFromWendys you know you and Boston15Man are saying the same thing. What a waste of a top comment

  • He's Coming to Los Angeles! Go Halos!

  • I'm from st.louis and we will miss him but he bullshited us telling us he cares

  • Stuff legends are made off.God bless A. Pujols..

  • 1 good pitcher? Weaver, Harren, Santana now Wilson.... thats the best pitching staff in the AL bud haha

  • @DucksandTits rays hellickson price nieman moore shields

  • wtf why would he want to go to th angels who would ever want to go to the angels he has a better winning chance in miami with reyes, bell, ramirez angels have 1 good pitcher thats it...

  • @patanatorx try he had a better chance at STL then any where! Miami is gonna have alot of problems, And for you Angles fans... see you in the world series!

  • If I remember correctly albert said something like as long as the cardinals stay competitive and surround him with the right pieces he'd love to stay in st.louis I guess that was a bunch of BS I'm grateful for what he's done but I don't look at him the same way I used to, and the angels better win soon because albert will be 32 next month and is slowly on the decline.

  • Shame he's leaving St. Louis. I was shocked when I came home from school and saw the news. If not the Cardinals, I was hoping it would be Miami. At least they got Reyes and Heath Bell. Nothing against the Angels, but they were the SECOND TO LAST team (last being Yankees) I would ever expect to sign Albert.

    Well, it was clear that St. Louis was never really dead-set on keeping Pujols. He is the best right now, so I wish him nothing but the best.

  • "Not Babe Ruth.."

    Well no shit, Ruth started his career as a pitcher. The Babe's third season as a pitcher, he had an ERA of 1.75. It was after Ruth's 7th year when Ruth was traded to the Yanks was he switched to a full time hitter. Pujols may be good, but let's not make it sound like Pujols is better than Ruth.

  • WELCOME TO OC

  • Pujols probably has 4 to 5 good years left in him. I still didn't think he would leave St. Louis but hey, it happened.

  • one of the most greaddiest also

  • @kerkerh22 greedy cuz he took less money than what the marlins where offering? 30 millions less actually

  • @fego19 no the marlins offered him around 220 mil. angles 250 mil. so there he got 30 more............. durrrrrrrrrrrrrr

  • Los Angeles Angels have signed him.

  • @ndc18 damn thanks captain obviouse

  • personally, i strongly dislike baseball, basketball fan mostly. But, as soon as i saw this, it gave my goosebumps down my whole body. What a great guy, he must've made them the happiest people alive. love the dude now.

  • @182isTommy then why are u viewing a baseball video, and why do you strongly dislike baseball?

  • he has been my favorite player since i was 11 and he was a rookie...and always will be!! david freese kicked ass too this ws! hahaha i love the cardinals

  • I still can't believe that the royals passed on drafting Albert.

  • Pretty obvious that this host has never watched baseball in his life. "joe da-may-gio"

    "were pitcher afraid to throw good balls at you?"

    either way, i'm a Ranger fan, who's now a Pujols fan

  • I'm a die hard Cubs fan but that's never stopped me from being a die hard Pujols fan! He's such an amazing guy!

  • so cool

  • Welcome to L.A. Dodgers Albert.

  • Its sucks that he hit .299 this season to end his streak of hitting over 300 every year.

  • @ballinbro95 it's funny how all these sports analysts say that 2011 was an off year for Albert Pujols when most guys would kill to have those stats.

  • ballinbro95 ya, ruined his streak of also having over 100rbis 30hrs and bat 300 every season. who else has done that? no one!!

  • one of the best person i ever know albert pujols is just not a great baseball plyer but is such a nice and good person who cares about others he doesnt care the money or what they say about him this what i call a great great man

  • We need more athletes like this. GREAT STORY !

  • It's amazing how the only thing that has ever really hindered his MLB legacy is this trouble with may not be coming back to St Louis. Really remarkable how great of a guy he is

  • great story great man!

  • WOW 11:46 brought tears to my eyes, I am now a bigger Pujols fan than ever before.

  • I my self have a cousin with down syndrome, and he is the most beautiful person I know. To the 11 individuals who disliked this video, I say FUCK YOU :)

  • Wo could possibly dislike this video?

  • I love this guy...

  • Man i wish my boy had won WS MVP

  • I hope he really meant it when he said he wanted to be a Cardinal forever.

  • @marinerspm you and me and every other cardinal fan

  • God bless albert!

  • All ahletes should give back like this!!!

  • this is WHY ALBERT IS BETTER THAN PUJOLS

  • Albert Poopholes Loves Retards! YAY!!!!!

  • @seattlehawkins stfu

  • @seattlehawkins This post just shows your ignorance. People with downs are people too and with every birth there is a chance that this could happen. Even if you don't like him as a player, you should respect what he does for these children!

  • @lecuruk Lighten up. LMAO!

  • @seattlehawkins YOUR MOTHERS A RETARD

  • @f22cool Damn! Who told???? LMAO!

  • @seattlehawkins she did

  • @f22cool Whore!

  • this video is about to make me cry!!!!!!!! alberto pujols.......DOMINICAN REPUBLIC IS SO PROUD OF YOU...........DIOS TE BENDIGA SIEMPRE............OJALA Y ALGUN DIA LEAS ESTO

  • What Does The Interviewer Ask Albert At 09:44?...Please Help Me!

  • @yandyman15 he asked if he smoked, drank, or cursed (swear words).

  • @darklord2626 Oh Ok Hahahaha Thanks!

  • @yandyman15 hes asks if he drinks,smokes,or curses

  • @aluejeter2 Oh Ok Thankssssssss!

  • I AM From The Dominican Republic and I Feel So Proud Of Albert Pujols!....BEST BASEBALL PLAYER ALIVE!...CARDINALS 2011 MLB CHAMPIONS!

  • There is no WAY that Albert has taken steroids. His body has gone through changes, and yes, he has gained weight, but it is NATURAL weight gain. Nothing visually indicates any performance enhancers

  • to bad lebron doesnt have this much dedication and heart in to literally EVERYTHING he does . the only other person that comes close to this kind of kind heartness is probably jordan . or wade . REMEMBER this to all future stars  " HUMBLE BEGINNINGS ARE HUMBLING "

  • 11 people r rangers fans

  • Albert Pujols is a Champion's Champion's Champion. Enough said. The dude is a Legend.

  • @CleverAndHandsome he hit like 500 triples during the dead ball era and got his ass kicked by Ruth into defining the Sports star ego

  • I knew Pujols was a great man before this

    but i never knew about the 400th homer bat thing

    Pujols is an amazing man

  • Its amazing how this guys never complained about a contract when he literally deserves every penny hes about to receive in the next upcoming months

  • The 11 people who "disliked" this video must be Rangers fans...lol
