Thursday Thinking and Inking - Baseball

All Aboard the Meme Express – Thursday, October 22, 2009

Baseball’s World Series is on! The Philadelphia Phillies clinched the National League Championship Series and will face either the New York Yankees or the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in the 2009 World Series.

Baseball fever is sweeping the nation . . . and much of the world . . . as the “boys of summer” play America’s pastime on the field and on the television screen. Who will win the 2009 World Series?

Here’s a classic baseball quotation for Thursday Thinking and Inking at Meme Express.

“Baseball is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical.”

Yogi Berra

American professional baseball catcher

(New York Yankees),

World Series champion

and manager

(New York Yankees and New York Mets)

(1925 - )

Each Thursday, we will feature a quotation as inspiration for that day’s prompt.
