Fadingpain Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Word out of Cleveland training camp is that "Tyrod" is not pronounced like a "TIE ROD" with accent on first syllable, but "ti-ROD" with accent on second syllable. Kind of how the accent comes at the end when you say "LeSean" as in LeSean McCoy. le-SEAN. ty-ROD. Who knew? https://wgr550.radio.com/media/audio-channel/08-13-bleacher-reports-mike-tanier-bulldog Edited August 13, 2018 by Fadingpain 2
HereComesTheReignAgain Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) More irrefutable proof that we have upgraded the QB position. Nobody mispronounces Josh Allen. Edited August 13, 2018 by chknwing334 6 13 4

Kirby Jackson Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 That’s how McCoy always said it. I thought that he was an idiot. It turns out the rest of us are. 1
thenorthremembers Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) By next year the only way anyone will care to pronounce it is "Back-Up.' Edited August 13, 2018 by thenorthremembers 1

Albany,n.y. Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 It's the same way O.J. Simpson's name is properly pronounced. It's a soft O & a hard J, not the other way around.

But, but, but Cleveland is talking about a contract extension. Seriously though, Mayfield is that dude and TY-rod or ty-ROD will not be able to keep him off of the field no matter which one shows up.

I have noticed McCoy and a few others, here and there, say it the "alternative way" which I guess is correct. I also always dismissed them as simply not knowing how to pronounce it.
