"Cultural icon” doesn’t fit the description of many athletes, but it’s safe to say it fits the bill when describing the Hall of Fame catcher for the Yankees, Yogi Berra.
With “Yogi-isms” like “it ain’t over till it’s over,” “In baseball, you don’t know nothin’,” and “a nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore,” it’s easy to remember Yogi as the character you saw instead of the person he was.
Lindsay Berra, executive producer of the critically acclaimed documentary on her grandfather’s life, “It Ain’t Over,” comes on the show today to talk to John and Dave about the film, shares the other side of Yogi that isn’t talked about, and tells us why Yogi Berra should still be at the forefront of the conversation about the greatest baseball players to ever play the game.
And then quickly before we go, Bob Irving stops by the show to give us a preview of the 110th Grey Cup in Hamilton this weekend between the Montreal Alouettes and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
