Out of curiosity, about how many names were submitted?

Yes, we got Nessler commentary for them. Not PA though, that will be next year.

Not sure, but at the cutoff point it was around 6000. From there I filtered out all the names we already have (like I got 30 people submitting "Smith"), and then filtered out anyone under 18 based on the birthday set for their EA Sports World account (the legal deparment made me do this). The rest of the ones that didn't get out were the joke submissions, people entering their first name, or people with weird last names that didn't give phonetic spellings. And no, phonetic spelling doesn't mean your phone number (yes, 5 people left their phone number in that box).

I didn't have to worry about my last name, it's common and the announcers already say it correctly.

Just to clear my last post up... I was not one of the people that put their phone numbers down in that box!!! HAHAHA
