'Yogi Berra Forever': Postage stamp released [View all]

It was a family affair for Yogi Berra's family at the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center in Little Falls, N.J. The United States Postal Service put Yogi’s likeness on a stamp, and it was released to the public on Thursday morning. A small ceremony commemorating the stamp was hosted by broadcaster Bob Costas.

The stamp has a smiling Berra in his Yankees uniform and the words, “Yogi Berra Forever.” No doubt, smiles on the faces of Berra’s family told the story.

“He got his fame from the Yankees, but he took that fame and used it in respectable ways to earn the respect of just about everybody he ever met,” said Larry Berra, Yogi’s oldest son.

Yay Yogi!

Why do they have to ruin a good think by inviting Bob Costas, the boil that won't go away? Costas: sanctimonious, plagiarizing, phony, attention-seeking narcissist and annoying-as-hell washed-up B-list nobody.
