While we're on the Hawthorne pain train, anybody else think his pronunciation of the Mc sound is an intentional thing? I've never heard anybody emphasize the "MAC" as much as he does. Sean MACMullen, Ben MACDonald. The MACNeese game was hilarious to listen to.

Oh my goodness this! I was trying to think about what was driving me nuts and this was it. I was driving last Sunday listening to the game, and everytime he called MACKmullen's name it was absolutely cringe-worthy to me.

How are they pronounced?

Mic and not Mac?

I'm not sure that's right. I admit I'm not from Louisiana and you people over there have your own way of speaking.

Or someone who calls everyone named Alex "Ellick" because he thinks he is honoring war hero Alex Box by mispronouncing other people's names.
