Yes sir and ma'am! Wishing a very happy birthday, however posthumously, to the one and only Yogi Berra!
Christened Lawrence Peter Berra, he received the nickname "Yogi" from a friend who thought he resembled a yogi from India when he sat, arms and legs crossed, while waiting to bat.
Berra-isms, some of which he never uttered, live on. Or as he put it, “I never said some of the things I said.”
They’re too good to check, so here are 10 reminders from Berra to start the day (USA Today).
"Baseball is 90 percent mental and the other half is physical."
"The future ain’t what it used to be."
"When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
"You wouldn’t have won if we’d beaten you."
"You can observe a lot by just watching."
"It ain’t over till it’s over."
""We have deep depth."
"It’s like déjà vu all over again."
"A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore."
"All pitchers are liars or crybabies."
Most all of the above from "The Hill" today.
