In honor of baseball legend Yogi Berra, I thought it would be cool for us to remember some of his best Yogi-isms. My favorite is in the title.

Edit: Great stories about Yogi are cool too.

That's my favorite one!

I've heard the name, but have no idea who he is?

He's that cartoon bear that steals picnic baskets, with his sidekick Boo-Boo.

“Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.”

Cool story: Yogi was a "garbage hitter". He could pick up the ball so well he could hit almost anything inside or outside the strike zone. One time a pitcher threw one in the dirt in front of the plate. It bounced up and Yogi got a hit off of the bounce! Talk about good eyes and fast reflexes.

We say that one a lot around here. One of the great quotes.

Not sure if this was Yogi's or Casey Stengel's line - another colourful & quotable character of a bygone era. You'll be missed Yogi.

RIP Sir
