You Are Probably Pronouncing Tyrod's Name Wrong!

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?

You mean, Josh al-LEN?

 

Is that it?  I thought he was French - I've been pronouncing it "Joe Allay."

 

Of course, I've been pronouncing Tyrod Taylor's name as "Cucumber McGillicuddy," so what the hell do I know?

Does that change seasonally?

That’s how McCoy always said it. I thought that he was an idiot. It turns out the rest of us are.

 

Well, most of the rest of us.....

 

 

OK, all of us. I’ve been here long enough to have an opinion.

By next year the only way anyone will care to pronounce it is "Back-Up.'   

 

 

But, but, but Cleveland is talking about a contract extension. :lol:

 

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.
