I’m not one to extol complements on NY Yankee players, but yesterday was Yogi Berra’s 86th birthday. Yogi was one of the great catchers and players of his era, but is just as widely known for his epicly logical-yet funny-quotes. So in honor of his b-day, here are a few my favorite “Yogi-ism’s”:

• “Ninety percent of this game is half mental.”
• “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.”
• “You can observe a lot by watching”
• “It gets late out there early.”
• “It ain’t over until it’s over.”
• “Nobody goes there anymore. It’s too crowded.”
• “Always go to other people’s funerals, otherwise they won’t come to yours.”
• “If you don’t know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.”
• “It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future.”

Better late than never. :)
