Will someone please tell stupid Cub fans

Featured Replies

MAD-DUX, not MAD-DOX!

 

 

Good God, I've been listening to the Score the past 2 days and I'm hearing all these Cub fans say M_A_D_D_O_X

 

 

It's DUX: pronounced (d-u-x, like "ducks")

 

 

Not DOX: pronounced (d-o-x, like "docks")

 

 

For this guy to be the "answer" to all of their problems, they could at least pronounce the guy's name right.

My favorite are the ones who prononce it MAD-OX. Last i checked, Greg isnt a wild animal

Harry is one of their heros... no wonder they can't pronounce anything right. Too bad we can't hear him butcher Shingo Takatsu or Esteban Loiaza...

They would've told Harry to call Shingo "Mr. Zero" and Loaiza "Last year's 20 game winner".

I wonder how he would pronounce "Buehrle"...

 

"Mark Bu-eh-erle takes the mound to face the Cubbies today."

 

How about Mientkiewicz?

 

"And Wood throws ball 4 to Doug Mi-ent-ky-wicks."

 

Let us not forget Ichiro.

 

"Itch-i-ro(or Ick-e-ro) gets his 2nd hit today. By the way, since when did these damn players start using one name? What in the hell is up with that?"

My fav one is from the Ultra-yuppie just-bought-a-house-in-lincoln-park-so-im-a-cub-fan who says, "Kerry Woods".

21 game winner! Get it right!!!!!!! :lol:

The best one was when Mark Grudzielanek had just made the majors and played for Montreal vs the Cubs...

 

It took Harry like 4 innings to even get CLOSE to pronouncing Mark's last name. :lol:

Damnit! When will I learn?

If he keeps losing games and giving up 8 runs per game in the process, they'll be callin' him OTHER names real soon....

Man I wonder how they will pronounce Scott Schoenweis' name... :lol:
