It ain't over, 'til it's over

Post by HDO45331 »

Yogi Berra, dead at 90. RIP to one of the best bad-ball hitters ever.

I feel bad. I would have bet the house that Yogi was already dead.

I've never seen him on a broadcast, or a spot, or in an interview, or on a 30 for 30, or anything. He was so quotable and prolific, I assumed he'd been long dead.

Just last Sunday I was pretty sure he was dead too but I'm thinking it was his wife's death that I remembered. He's been "kinda dead" for a while though.

Yeah, I assumed he was the way Biggio referenced him during the HoF stuff.

Whenever the topic came up, Yogi would quickly interrupt with, "He's still out"



From the NYTImes obit today
More than 50 years later, he signed a photograph of the play for President Obama, writing, “Dear Mr. President, He was out!”
