yeah i remember that as well. who would have thought that his own coach wouldn't know how to pronounce it though. i mean, i expect it from you dumbasses. maybe frank is trying to send spri a message or something and mispronounced it on purpose.  :dunno:

Yeah, I actually mentioned that in a previous thread.  Frank pronounced it like sasparilla during a pregame.

Yeah.  The PA guy said SPREE too.  I was sitting there before the game thinking I'd get to find out how to say Freddie's name.  I even repeated it a couple times in conversation on the way home.

They did ask Freddy. And he said he prefers ah-SPREE-ya. They were told a-SPRILL-a before the season, then they asked Freddy after the first exh game, since the PA guy caught some flak for saying as-PRILL-a. Freddy said ah-SPREE-ya. Which is why the PA says it that way now.

Per Colombian media sources (fwiw) it's tortilla. But Colombians also spell "John" as "Jhon", so they're probably whacked out on coke and illegal militias, etc.

I asked questions of people I know on how to say his name. That's what they said. And I'm still confused.

I heard it and I'm pretty sure Frank pronounced it exactly like sarsparilla.

With the "per" in the middle.

Freddy "Assperilla"   :woot:

Apparently pronouncing someones name incorrectly is the Cuban to Columbian equivalent of benching someone for being a FP, TC, etc...

It can be pronounced both ways. I asked Freddy in person and he said ah-SPREE-uh but Frank's way works too. Everybody's elite nicknames still stand  :ck:

this is probably why frank will move to miami. because frank is probably pronouncing it so us dumb kansans are not confused. thank god frank is so understanding.

I feel like we need one of our fine KSU beat writers to follow up on all this and prove once an for all how he pronounces his name. High quality nicknames are hanging in the balance.
