Brandon Marshall can't pronounce Nmamdi either
Brandon Marshall is on track to start catching passes with both hands on June 22, and appears to be getting a head start already. He also is studying up on his opponents:
"I was able to get a jump start on Oakland, their corners: No. 21 and Dante Hall. No. 21 has a name I can't pronounce. I have all their plays broken down and I'm studying them and getting mental reps is always a plus."
The high priced Oakland backfield ladies and gentlemen: No. 21 and Dante Hall!
Comments
I thought about making a post blasting Marshall for being the next idiot jackass pompous stud WR.
Then I decided it was easier to say I really, really hope he was just smacktalking the Raiders with that comment.
Then again, it's more or less the same comment, isn't it?

When Nmandi steal's Brandon's lunch money a couple of times, he'll get the name straight.

Maybe it is Asomugha, that Marshall can't pronounce.
His name is not exactly Rod Smith now is it?

Maybe I have highly advanced phonetic skills or something, but Nnamdi isn't hard to pronounce in the slightest (are there ANY 2 syllable words that are difficult to pronounce?). If Marshall is having difficulty READING the name, well that's a different matter altogether.
Asomugha I understand a bit more, but all you have to do is listen to Al Michaels say it once, and it's crystal clear.

While we may have a hard time pronouncing his name... folks better get used to hearing it because he is the best cover corner in the NFL. And after what the Raiders paid DeAngelo Hall, Nnamdi should be doing cartwheels.
