Everything about this entire telecast made me want to kill myself. The actual game, the cut-scenes of Cub fans, Joe Morgan speaking, it was painful.

I want to stab Miller in the eye every time he says "Bel-TRON".

It's BEL-tran you moron. Why does every announcer of the sport except you understand this?

When the accent mark is over the "a", it's Bel-TRON.

You are wrong.

I must be.

I guess Carlos is also wrong when he says his own name.

He can pronounce it however he wants. He can also insist that people pronounce it BEL-tran, if he wants. He can move the accent where he wants it.

I doubt he's gone out of his way to tell Jon Miller to pronounce it BELtran though. Miller is just trying to pronounce it correctly, that's all.
