pretty funny!....... instead of being upset about a video, they better worry about the coaching staff splitting up.

I don't know how the name is supposed to be pronounced,but the way I have heard it pronounced by Al Michaels is pretty damn close to human urine.

Yea,and that's exactly what human urine sounds like if u don't use the 1st n' last consonant.We often abbreviate the 1st consonant of words.We don't leave it out,but we often say it much quicker than the rest of the word.The last consonant(we all know we mess with that one.) CRITICAL can become CRITICO. The last consonant will get rushed if there are a lot of words following it.We are used to hearing abbreviated forms,and this sounds like somebody rushing the term "human urine." The accented vowels human urine are present.The 2 consonants that are left out are the 2 least stressed parts of the term.Everything else is present.The 5 most typical consonants(p,s,l,n,c) we use to finish the off the uh sound are? uhp...uhs....uhn....uhc...uhl ..Now add in the ur.....ur-uhp,ur-uhs,ur-uhc,ur-uhl,ur-uhn........There is nothing to compete with ur-uhn,and believe me your mind wants to finish this off.We are indeed used to having a consonant to finish this sound off with.Your wondering where I get the n from? Your brain will go to it naturally.It's like that little trick going around where they give you numbers you have to add,or subtract.Then they quickly ask you to think of words that start with a certain letter.A country that starts with D,A FRUIT THAT STARTS WITH o,an animal that starts with a K. Almost everybody comes up with Oranges,Kangaroos,and Denmark.
