I've been waiting for someone to make a meme with a picture of him and the words "It's over." Or does everyone else have more taste than me?

I played in Little league and Yogi Berra was one of my heroes. One of his personal mottos was "If you can reach 'em you can hit 'em". I adopted that philosophy as well until much later when I learned to wait for a pitch I could really pound.

It might turn out to be, Its Deja Vu all over again. I remember when he was still playing.
He sure had a way with words. And he had a lot of them to quote.
RIP Yogi.

I saw a cartoon yesterday, either in the paper or online. It was a gravestone that said "It's Over"

Yeah, for Yogi, the Fat Lady finally sang.....
