Yogi Berra knew how to talk, that s for sure. Maybe it wasn t the kind of erudite speech Emily Post might recommend, but considering that every copy of Bartlett s Familiar Quotations is half-filled with Yogi-isms (I m guessing), he knew a thing or two about getting people to listen to him.
He knew how to explain popular restaurants better than anyone else, he knew exactly how much of the game is mental, and he even remembered something pretty unique after a dinner with Marilyn Monroe turns out, it was the shrimp that made an impact. Yogi simply knew how to enthrall people with everything that came out of his mouth (even if he didn t really say all the things he said).
