Talk:Jon Miller

message: I don't know what I think about the phrase "mock indignation" in this article. I've heard that call many times, and I don't think there was anything "mock" about it. Miller seemed legitimately pissed off. Jcb9 03:29, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Mock indignation

message: "Jon Miller, on occasion, will uniquely pronounce certain players' names. For example, when pronouncing Carlos Beltran he tends to put the majority of emphasis on the "A" of Beltran."
Well, Miller must know Spanish, because that is the way Beltrán is pronounced in Spanish (note the accent mark).

replies: text: As the daughter of two non-hispanic Spanish teachers, I've always appreciated non-hispanics who pronounce Spanish names correctly.  Miller is a rarity in this respect.  Does anyone know his background, i.e., how he came to be so proficient?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.200.177.10 (talk) 22:03, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Pronounciation

message: I'm not convinced that Miller said "it's wide". I always thought it was "it's off line"; though, to be fair, he *was* completely drowned out by Kruk & Kuip hollering in the background... Js farrar 02:05, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Pennant-clinching call

message: Regarding the section on Miller's proper pronunciation of Spanish names - a couple of years back, Miller started to correctly pronounce Felipe Alou's last name (as I recall, it was something like "Al-oh" rather than the usual "Al-ew") but had to stop after a few games because non-Spanish speaking fans were confused and didn't know who he was talking about. I think this would be worth mentioning in the pronunciation section, but a quick Google search failed to turn up any sources. Does anyone know of any articles mentioning this?

message: The page about Jeffrey Maier includes both the text and audio of Miller's call of the disputed home run. It's the call I most associate with Miller, so I nominate it for inclusion in this page. (I was driving around Fairfax, VA during the call, and Miller's outrage was so palpable that I found the nearest sports bar to see it for myself.)209.131.62.115 (talk) 05:58, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
