Quick Question
Regarding that guy from WCBS in New York taking video of Randy Johnson as he walked down the city street...
What's the story?
Seriously, what's the scoop? Randy Johnson occasionally walks down the street?
Suggestion to Randy Johnson: I'm not suggesting the cameraman was overstepping his bounds; he and you are both out in public, he should have every right to film somebody. But if this cameraman really knew what a pain in the ass he can be, he might stop. Find out who this guy is, and hire a video cameraman to follow him around and do exactly to him what he did to you. Twenty-four hours a day. Have the guy followed, have somebody park outside his house, etc. Maybe he'd stop.

CAMERAMAN: Hey buddy.Don't you have stock footage of Randy Johnson you can use?
SECURITY GUY: Hey, how you doin'?
JOHNSON: Hey.
SECURITY GUY: No cameras. (Johnson puts his band on the camera lens.)
CAMERAMAN: What was that? What was that?
SECURITY GUY: No cameras.
JOHNSON: Get out of my face, that's all I ask.
CAMERAMAN: I'm just takin' a picture.
JOHNSON: No, you're not.
SECURITY GUY: No cameras.
JOHNSON: No cameras.
SECURITY GUY: I got it, Randy, I got it.
JOHNSON: All right? Don't get in my face. I don't care who you are. Don't get in my face.
CAMERAMAN: Just takin' a picture.
JOHNSON: Don't get in my face, and don't talk back to me, all right?
CAMERAMAN (later): Welcome to New York.
