Big Guy Posted September 23, 2015 Report Posted September 23, 2015 Yogi Berra once said "It ain't over till it's over". At age 90, It's over for Yogi. •On selecting a restaurant: "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."•On economics: "A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore."•On a slipping batting average: "Slump? I ain't in no slump. ... I just ain't hitting."•On travel directions: "When you come to a fork in the road take it."•On battling the shadows in left field at Yankee Stadium: "It gets late early out there."•On being given a day in his honour: "Thank you for making this day necessary."•On a spring training drill: "Pair off in threes." The other half is physical."•On death: "Always go to other people's funerals. Otherwise they won't go to yours."•On the fractured syntax attributed to him: "I really didn't say everything I said." He will be missed. Quote Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.
Wilber Posted September 24, 2015 Report Posted September 24, 2015 Great Character. When I was a little kid I can remember listening on the radio to all those World Series between the Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers, when Berra was the Yankee's catcher. Unfortunately I was a Dodgers Fan. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC
