One of my favorite stories related to Yogi was told by Joe Garagiola. Joe was also a major league catcher, though a rather mediocre one. He later became an excellent broadcaster announcing baseball games. He and Yogi actually grew up across the street from each other. During one broadcast, he mentioned that Yogi's old house had a plaque on it stating that Yogi Berra grew up in that house. Joe's broadcast partner asked him if there was a plaque on his old house too. Garagiola said, yeah...it says that Yogi Berra grew up across the street from this house.

Just because the show was civilized, certainly does not imply the mass of people ever behaved this way There were many topics that interested people, and the fact that Jerry Springer exists opened the floodgates for other people to cover these topics. I saw an excellent documentary about this phenomenon. As more and more people could afford the equipment, different topics could be covered and the democratization of the equipment enabled salacious and trivial content to become prevalent. When the equipment was extraordinarily expensive, this forced a natural type of quality control.

I think I just realized why these shows are so invigorating to me. It's not just the nostalgia. People actually have to think, sometimes rather strenuously. It's exciting to hear the audience's little reactions, the tension in the air when the plot thickens, the looks on the panel's faces, the laughter when something just happens to be funny, either a crack by one of the panel or the host, or just something that just happens. . . Are any shows today like this?

Yes. There is so much critical thinking going on: deductive/convergent reasoning, associations, careful choice of words and phrasing so as not to give the answer away. That is why the host's responses are so complicated. I have seen so many people complaining about his wordy answers but this is why. And yet the panel has no problem understanding his "double speak", the complex use of negative constructions, the vague answers. You can see how the panel is thinking about their word choices too so that they do not get a "no" answer. A "no" leaves them with no other options as well as a loss of their turn. They want a "yes" even if it is a qualified "yes" because they can continue to narrow down the topic. Dorothy is VERY good at this and behind that face l her brain is working furiously to eliminate choices and narrow it down - all based on her experiences as an investigative journalist, I am sure.

@loissimmons65586 жыл бұрын
+Jason Smith Yes, Yogi Berra came within one win of winning the World Series (twice). Yes, Berra managed the Yankees under Steinbrenner. And yes, Steinbrenner fired managers at a rapid pace. But Berra was never fired by Steinbrenner for losing the World Series in the seventh game. In 1964 when Berra was a rookie manager, he had been a player the year before and had shown some difficulty controlling the team, in part perhaps because he was still too close to the players and he was generally an easy going guy. The issue came to a head in August when the Yankees had lost a game. On the team bus after the game, Phil Linz was playing a harmonica. Berra ordered him to stop. Linz was sitting too far away to hear him. When he asked what Berra said, Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford told him that Berra had said to play it louder. So Linz did. Berra came back and slapped the harmonica out of his hand. The Yankees were in third place at the time and the management (General Manager Ralph Houk and owners Dan Topping and Del Webb) felt that Berra wasn't ready to manage yet and decided to fire him. And they followed through with that decision even though the harmonica incident may have helped solidify Berra's authority with the players and the rallied to win another pennant (although they wouldn't win again until 1976). At the time, Steinbrenner was in the shipbuilding business, after a failed venture as an owner of a basketball team in a rival to the NBA that folded and before his venture into Broadway shows. He didn't buy the Yankees from CBS until January 1973. 1973 was also the year that Berra would manage a team into the World Series, again coming from behind in the standings (this time all the way from 6th place). But he wasn't managing the Yankees. He was managing the Mets. The lost the 7th game of the Series to Oakland. Berra continued as Mets manager until August 1975. He returned to manage the Yankees in 1984. Steinbrenner fired him early in the 1985 season despite assurances that Berra would remain as manager for the whole season. In response, Berra would have nothing to do with the Yankees until Steinbrenner personally drove to Yogi's home in New Jersey to apologize in 1999. Steinbrenner was occasionally forced to kowtow to Baseball Commissioners or the Federal Government. Berra was one of the only people he kowtowed to who had no direct authority over him. It was Yogi's popularity with the fans and other Yankee all-time greats that forced him to eventually cave in.

My favorite Yogism is from the 1970s when he was managing the Mets. He was in a convertible in a parade with Mrs. Lindsay, the wife of the mayor of NYC. It was a sweltering summer day and Yogi was wearing a coat and tie. Mrs. Lindsay said to Yogi, "You're looking pretty cool today." Yogi replied, "You don't look so hot yourself."

I think we would all agree that Yogi isn't a handsome man, but his wife that he mentions in this show was a good looking woman. She appeared with him on one of these game shows and I couldn't believe how pretty she was. He met her when she was a teenage waitress in his hometown of St. Louis. He wasn't a wealthy guy at the time so she married him for love and they were married for 65 years until her death last year. Anyway, I always thought that was interesting that Yogi Berra had a pretty wife that married him for him and not because he was Yogi Berra.

In spite of the fact that the equipment being called "the Tools of Ignorance", the catcher has to have so much information tucked away in his mind that "Ignorant" is the one thing he CAN NOT be. He, basically, runs the team on the field.

In 1961, the Yankees hit 240 homers which was a major league record at the time. They had three catchers on their roster: Elston Howard started 106 games, Johnny Blanchard started 42 and Yogi Berra started 15 (they had one tie that year). Howard also played a little at first base, Berra mostly played outfield and Blanchard saw some outfield action and did a lot of pinch hitting. It is the only time that a major league team had three catchers hit over 20 home runs in a season (although Berra would have been considered an outfielder during this season). Berra hit 22 while Howard and Blanchard each hit 21.

Ironically at this time of year, leaving Iceland for the U.S. would mean she would have shorter days (less daylight) than if she had stayed home.

+Ron McGill Seems like I remember seeing an ad for the school. You would submit a sample of your writing and they would evaluate it to see if you had enough talent to meet their standards for admission. I wrote a bunch of gibberish ... when the results came back, they said I had 'potential' lol ^^

Always build a team you can trust and rely on in your absence. I believe Bennett had two partners involved and was not the sole owner.

I had to look up who gorgeous Suzy Parker, as I was not familiar with her. Turns out whe was the most famous model in the 50's & 60's, as well as an actress (famous for the "You look just like Number 12" Twilight Zone episode. Sadly, her health failed relatively early, and she died of kidney failure at age 70, having voluntarily refused further dialysis.

Children in Iceland have "son" or "dottir" added to their father's first name. So she was Magnus' daughter.

Mr Daly sat with some of the great beauties of the age, but I don't think anyone affected him like Miss Iceland! He came close to dropping journalistic neutrality and wishing her the title. He was obviously crazy about Yogi Berra too. Possibly his two favourite guests in one episode. I believe Tallulah to be among his preferred guests as well.

Yogi was indeed good at hitting pitches out of the strike zone. But my vote would go to Roberto Clemente. I once saw "The Great Roberto" (as Bob Prince called him) swing at a pitch that was going toward his ear and hit it for a triple. And that was commonplace for him. In March 1957 going into Roberto's third major league season, Branch Rickey said this about Clemente (as reported in "The Sporting News": “His value is in not taking bases on balls because he can hit the bad pitches. If I tried to teach him to wait for a good pitch, I’d simply make a bad hitter out of him. The cure would be worse than the disease. He'll cure his own ailments simply by experience.”

Dorothy's question about whether the mystery guest plays for "a New York team" was rather silly. She should have asked if he played for the Yankees, since the Yankees were the only MLB team in New York in 1961 The Giants and Dodgers had left town after the 1957 season.
@gojira9319 жыл бұрын
And the Mets hadn't even started yet. I guess it became habit to ask that over the first few years of the show when there were three teams and she lapsed into it.
@rockymarino5849 жыл бұрын
Dorothy had it down to a science. She posed her questions as she did for a reason. She was an excellent and competitive player of the game and every question was by design.
@ryanschroer9 жыл бұрын
Lava1964 There were still players around, like Willie Mays, who were playing that still played for the Giants and Dodgers. The Mets DID exist..hadn't played yet..but the franchise was around. Not out of the realm of possible that a Met exec like M. Donald Grant might appear.
@bunpeishiratori58497 жыл бұрын
But the player could have been from an opposing team who was in town for the weekend. Stan Musial was a guest once. Certainly it was more likely that it was a local player but the question helped narrow things down.
