His name is not pronounced "Awesome-moo-ga"

I was checking out some gameplay vids on youtube..namely this one...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n6WWE3y9Ls

(Skip to :48 second mark)

And I realized that the announcer is STILL pronouncing Nnamdi's name wrong. (Didn't see a previous topic on this so I thought I'd bring it up)

Hammond is calling him "Naaam-di Awesome-moo-ga," when it should be pronounced "NAM-dee Awesome-wah."

Pretty serious oversight if you ask me considering his rating and that he is probably the best corner playing the game right now. I know the Dev's have bigger fish to fry, but thank God I'm not a Raider's fan because that would get to me.

What's up with that goofy post interception robot-zombie walk by Brad Hoover? I've seen that in a couple videos. 1:23 mark

He also says "Nah-gah-ta"

Both of these examples are pretty inexcusable. How could both a broadcaster as well as whoever was editing/directing the commentary not know how to pronounce a premiere NT or the NFL's top CB's name?

This has been mentioned several of times and you're late on this one. It's ashame that Tom Hammond misspronounced his name though.
