"It's the insurance that if you're hurt and miss work, it won't hurt to miss work ..."

Actually, Yogi has said that he didn't say half the things people quote him as having said, but that he doesn't mind them doing it ...

One of this country's greatest down to earth statesmen and great representative of MLB.

When asked about a favorite resturant by Joe Garigiola Yogi responded....."It's too crowded, nobody goes there anymore"!

"They pay you in cash and that is the same as money"

If he wore anything other than pinstripes, I'd probably really like him. Because he does wear them, the nicest thing I can say is he is probably my favorite Yankee.

But when you are a member of Red Sox Nation, its like saying a Cold Sore is your favorite infection. Its still an infection.

Happy 80th, I guess.

"90% of baseball is mental. The other 50% is physical."

Well said, Mr. Berra.
